When did you deliver? I don't know how much longer I can take it...

Just kind of curious how long everyone made it. I know everyone is different. But I feel like in the last 2 weeks my whole attitude has changed. I'm 29 weeks and feel like I have forever left.

I think the average is 37 weeks.
I got to 35 weeks 6 days, my sister got to 37 weeks with her twins and our friend got to 31 weeks with hers.

36w1d... i remember being really impatient to get them out, and then turned a corner where I was happy to still have some more time to get things done and enjoy time with DH. that happened like 4 days before we gave birth lol

Thanks girls! I know they need to "cook" as long as possible.

It's just so weird how I felt awesome until last week and now I feel like everything has changed. I've reached the point that I can't tie my shoes lol. And I'm not even that big, it just hurts to bend over.

36 weeks. Twin 1 was in NICU for 9 days :(. Twin 2 was fine.

ETA I was hoping to make it to 36. I made it just to 36. Would have been 36 the next day but I went for a Dr apt and I was dialiated 2-3 cm so I went in that night. Now I kinda wish I didnt do as much as I did that weekend prior because I would have rather have Twin 1 out of NICU. It was really a maturity thing- they were born the size of 35 weekers and she didnt have the eating/breathing coordination yet. In the long run given a chance I would have suffered another week but I thought lungs would be mature at 36 weeks and I was in the clear.

Every day is an accomplishment for your little peanuts!!!!

I delivered at 35 weeks 4 days due to preeclampsia. My girls spent 6 days in the NICU.

I attribute making it through the last month of my pregnancy to Netflix. Best advice I can give is get engrossed in a show that has a ton of episodes you haven't seen and just watch it until you give birth. The cast of Grey's Anatomy became my best friend!

I had a scheduled csection at exactly 36 weeks but around 32 weeks I wanted to shoot myself bc it was very uncomfortable...I am glad I made it that long bc none of the kids had any issues.. Good luck and hang in there.

I was 36 weeks 1 day. I really was ok until about week 32 and I was miserable. Just try and relax and keep your feet up.

The NICU is rough. I had to leave my girls after I got discharged. Then it was even worse when one came home and one still there and it was a 45 minute drive to winthrop from my house. I didn't want to bring the released baby back and forth to the hospital to be with the one who didn't get released. DH had to go to work and I was so torn with who I could be with plus recovering from the C-Section. Luckily it was only a few days. I can't even imagine having to do it for weeks or months.

32 weeks. Boys spent a month in the NICU. I wouldn't wish NICU on my worst enemy, be grateful your body is doing what it is suppose to and holding them in. I know its hard..I'm 35 weeks with #3 and miserable!! ;/

35W3D but I honestly started to feel "different" and "big" at 30 weeks or so. I was then in the hospital from 33w2d until the day I gave birth. That part was so tough...

I had a scheduled csection at 37w5d and got there. My cervix was completely closed, they probably would have stayed in forever.
