Hi there!

#1: 34 weeks
#2: Neither..I had been dilating since I was 28 weeks. At 34 weeks, I had dilated to 5cm so the Dr delivered me that day
#3: C/S

 

35 weeks, PTL since 28 weeks my water broke so it was time for them to come, vaginal delivery (with vacuum assist for both of them)

 

#1 Born at 38 weeks
#2 Induced - They weren't interested in ever coming out.
#3 Vaginally but had to have vacuum assist. I quit contracting in the operating room so the doc and to help them out.

 

#1 38 weeks
#2 induced
#3 vaginally ...super easy delivery.

 

(1) 37w3d

(2) induced

(3) vaginally

 

1. 36 wk 5 day
2. Naturally PTL started at 32 wk 2 days
3. Vaginally......Easy delivery for Brooke (A).....Reagan was facing up for her delivery was pretty hard and I had a lot of tearing.

 

How many weeks were you when you gave birth to your twins? I was exactly 35 weeks and 3 days.

Were you induced or did you go into labor naturally? Neither... I wasn't in labor, not contracting nothing. I had actually went in for a regularly scheduled appt. and had my regular U/S, the Dr. noticed that Baby B's cord was hanging down REALLY low, and was afraid that if I were to go in labor, his cord could tear and could be fatal for him. So, they sent me over to the hospital, and they did a c-section on me the very next morning/

Did you have the babies vaginally or by c-section? C-section

How many weeks were you when you gave birth to your twins? 38w2d

Were you induced or did you go into labor naturally? induced (my doc prefers to have twins delivered around 38 weeks, and I had major swelling in my right leg due to the weight, non-pre-e related).

Did you have the babies vaginally or by c-section? vaginally, one was head down, the other was born by breech extraction

 

1- 36 weeks
2- Naturally
3- Both: James vaginally, Sean by c/s.

 

#1 32 weeks 3 days
#2 Not allowed to go into labor because of a previous classical c-section
#3 c-section due to preeclampsia, HELLP syndrome, severe IUGR and decels

 

How many weeks were you when you gave birth to your twins?
38 wks 4 days

Were you induced or did you go into labor naturally?
Went into hospital for High blood pressure, from a routine ob appt, was actually in labor(didn't have a clue)

Did you have the babies vaginally or by c-section?
C- Section, elected, "B" wasn't very cooperative with his position.

 

35 weeks

naturally

vaginally

 

1. 35 weeks 5 days
2. My water broke
3. I decided to have a c-section. Both girls were head down but the dr gave me the choice. Because I was terrified of having to have one vag. and then a c-sec for some reason I decided on the c-sec. Glad I did because Emma did not want to come out!

 

My water broke at 34w3d, I didn't start dilating or anything so they gave me pitocin to induce labor and had them at 34w5d vaginally.

 

1. 38 weeks, 1 day
2. Scheduled c-section - no signs of labor. Dr. said I would have gone another few weeks!!
3. I also chose a c-section because I did not want to recover from both vaginal and c-section and the odds of that are quite high. I am sooooo glad I did because as it turned out, one of them was "stuck" against my pelvis and 2 doctors struggled to get him out, even with a c-section. Had I not scheduled one, I would have ended up with one anyway!

 

36wks 6days

Induced

vaginal deliveries

 

38 weeks
natural
vaginal

 

37w2d
induced because both babies were over 6# and we had to turn baby B
vaginally, 8 min apart, after 6 hour labor

 

How many weeks were you when you gave birth to your twins?
35 Weeks 2 Days
Were you induced or did you go into labor naturally?
I went into labor naturally
Did you have the babies vaginally or by c-section?
I had them vaginally 6 minutes apart.

 

I delivered my girls at 34w1d. I was induced because of low fluid in Baby B's sac. I delivered both vaginally - they were both head down.

By the way, nice choice for a girl's name - I have a Josephine too!

 

37w0d
water broke
A-vaginally B-c-section(she was breech but OB thought he could turn her after A was delivered)

 

Thanks for all the answers! I'm so glad to hear so many of you delivered vaginally. I've never given birth and I have no idea what to expect. From what I've heard, it seems like twins are unpredictable - they can come practically any time and who knows if you'll be able to have them vaginally or not. I don't care if I get induced or not, but I'd really like to avoid a c-section if I can!

TwoBabyGirls - thanks! I have loved the name Josephine (Josie) for a long time now. I'm so glad I'll have a little girl to give the name to!

 

1) 37 weeks exactly

2) I went into labor naturally but needed a little help to progress

3) I was in labor for two days with little progression so they took them by c-section

 

38 +1

Induced

Vaginal

 

#1: 37 weeks 4 days
#2: Water broke on my own at 37w4d(after PTL starting at 24 weeks)
#3: Vaginally

 

My girls were born at 35 wks + 3 days, I was in preterm labor but because I was on magnesium for preeclampsia they had to give me pitocin. Twin A was born vaginally and twin B was an emergency c-section.

 

1. 31 wks
2. went into pre term labor at 28wks. water broke at 31 wks
3. c-section both were breech

 

37 weeks
Went into labor naturally
Vaginal birth for both

 

1. I was 35 weeks 3 days

2. I went into labor naturally but after being in labor for 24 hours I was giving pitocin to help move things along. I had preterm labor starting at 29 weeks and was taking terbutline every four hours. The medicine would no longer stop labor so my ob didn't try to stop labor anymore.

3. Vaginal delivery. They used the vacuum to get Baby B in the birth canal, removed the vacuum, and I pushed him out on my own. Labor was horrible but the delivery was a piece of cake. It took 30 minutes to push out Hannah and 10 minutes to push out Jackson.

 

I was 35 weeks
I went into labor naturally
I had them be c-section because my water broke and i was not in labor and 1 of my babies was breached.

 

I gave birth at 35 weeks exactly. My water broke at 2am. My ds was born vaginally at 8:38am and my dd was born vaginally at 8:54am. It was a WONDERFUL experience. Best of luck to you!

1. I was 34w1d
2. I went into labor after being taken off mag sulfate just one day earlier. I was 4 cm and 100% effaced and NOTHING was stopping the contrax anymore
3. I was c-section. My OB wouldn't deliver vag unless both were measureing at least 4lb.8oz. The u/s showed them weighing less, they ended up being 3lb.14oz. and 4lb.8oz. Baby B (the bigger one) was also breech.
