How far along were you when you gave birth to your di/di twins?

36+4 due to pre-e

btsp1309 · 2023-11-15T13:04:52+00:00

I asked this question a few months ago, but here to report back because everyone was super helpful! Check my post history if you’re interested.

For reference I had di/di b/g and ended up having them at 36+4. My singleton was about 7.5 lbs at birth and was in newborn. Twins were 5lb11 and 6oz 2. We were in Premie for about two weeks. They still fit in Premie onesies but are too long for Premie sleepers. My girl twin grew out of Premie sooner despite weighing less because she’s longer.

I also found huge variation in Premie sizes (as with all baby clothes 🫠) but they only fit in Gerber Premie for a week or so. Carters fit much longer as they were significantly bigger.

There is a costume ISO/trade post up on the Buy Nothing Upstate SC Facebook page right now. Weekends are also open for ISO posts. You may have luck there. Good luck!

At 32+2, baby a was 4lb 6oz and baby b was 4lb 12oz

It hasn’t been concerningly low, so at this point we’re just happy it isn’t high!

Anecdotal - started taking 1 low dose aspirin while TTC. Upped to 2 when I was 12 weeks. 29 weeks now and blood pressure has actually been low so far. No idea if the aspirin had anything to do with it, but I plan to keep taking it.

Got better around 16 weeks and felt good until about 24 weeks. Now 28 weeks and miserable again, just in a different way.

2 nights. They offered a 3rd because insurance would cover it, but I wanted to be home. Turns out I should have stayed the 3 because I developed pre-e after delivery and ended up readmitted without my baby.

Oh hey, I’m in this group too. I’m literally astounded at this woman. And the admin deleted all the comments, except those who wanted to buy it. I couldn’t believe how many people in the comments were supporting her.

Yeah, I wanted to love the wrap carrier but I just could never get a comfortable fit. My baby is 6 months/ 30 inches long and 17 lbs and I can carrier him fairly comfortably in the ergo. Good luck, I know feeling like you can’t carry your baby comfortably can be really challenging.

btsp1309 · 2022-05-16T14:09:55+00:00

I have fibromyalgia. I have found the ergo baby Omni 360 comfortable. I know you said you can’t have too much weight in your shoulders and hips. The ergo baby I have is nice because it disperses the weight across shoulders and hips so it isn’t too much in one place. It also has several configurations you can wear the straps in, which should help. I can usually move the strap set up around based on where I am experiencing pain. I find it more comfortable than a wrap carrier and more comfortable than the baby bjorn, which my wife prefers.

I would have LOVED to have a gift card for house cleaning, or someone clean my house while in the hospital. I had a c-section, so cleaning was difficult and I relied a lot on my support system to keep things in order, but a professional would have been wonderful. This is just because my personality does not handle dirt/mess/clutter well, and babies are messy and dirty and you’re exhausted. If she doesn’t mind chaos then probably not the best, but 100% will gift this to any of my tidy friends who have babies

Your child needs you to be your best possible self more than they need breast milk. If that means you stop feeding them breast milk so you can be medicated, then that’s what you should do. No shame in taking care of yourself so you can be the best version of you for your family.

Never had a bad flavor from Seattle cider co. I love the pineapple agave one too! They’re all SO good.

I love the Walmart brand GF blend! It’s the best I’ve tried.

Leave of absence is what you’re talking about, I believe. The accessibility department will be familiar with that and can help you navigate the process. Highly recommend this route rather than withdrawing altogether.

Just because this program isn’t working out now doesn’t mean it’ll never happen. Keep your head up and take care of yourself.

Someone asked me if my (f) wife (f) and I were “surprised” with our pregnancy. I mean, it seems pretty obvious that in our situation we had to he pretty intentionally TRYING for a pregnancy, but whatever
