| Twins or More Just when we thought having one baby was tricky enough, mums to multiples often have extra challenges with two or more babies of the same age. If you are a mum to twins or more, this is where you can exchange experiences and support with others. |  | |

How did you go??? Hope you are all home and happy.
I had my twins at 27 weeks, went into hospital on full bed rest at 25 weeks due to a short cervix and they came 2 weeks later.
After 13 weeks in NICU, we came home and they are now 7 months old, 4 months corrected. They are both happy, healthy, fat little girls and I am so happy.
I hope that everything went well.
Cheers,

I was induced at 37 weeks due to PUPPS. Due to complication ended up with an emergency c-section but both bubs were born fine. Didnt need any care at all and we bought them home 7 days later.
They are now nearly 5

Amazing stories.... twins are gorgeous.
My bestie had twins just over a year ago and they were born after she was induced at 36+4 (I think, I know it was 36+ something lol) Bub1 spent roughly 12 hours in special care due to breathing difficulties. But otherwise they both went home after a few days.

HI, my twins were born at 33 weeks 1 day after spontaneous labour. Both were admitted to special care, both needed help with breathing. Gabe nearly had to go into NICU but ended up breathing better. He had to have regular bits of caffeine to keep his heart rate up. They went home after 23 days. Both are doing well now, except Tallulah is very behind in movement and attending physio.
Hope everything has gone well with you and your twins

My twins were born at 38 weeks, spontaneous labour followed by 2 natural vaginal births. Neither spent any time in hospital initially, but my son became ill with sepsis aged 11 days and ended up in NICU.
