When Did You "Drop" With Your Twins

[A Party of Five]

Hi Ladies, How many weeks where you when you "drop" with your twins? I just have over night at 31 weeks and 2 days. Is this a good or bad thing? Is this the right time? With all my other pregnancy I did not "drop" until about 37 weeks. Any input would be great. Thanks heaps, Angela.

I think with twins you normally drop earlier as usually they are born earlier

Hey there, I kinda have dropped but then again, I kinda haven't!! It seems to depend on the day. One thing I have noticed though, is that I tend to streeeetttttccccchhhhh outwards!! See my avatar LOL

Wow, at 31 weeks there's still a chance your babies will have good survival rates if born now.

Hope it's not too uncomfortable for you.

Impressive, Kyle :D

Mine looked rather like yours - all to the front. Dh used to tell me that he couldn't tell I was preg from behind even at the end, bless him ;)

I didn't really drop either, although B1 engaged at about 34 weeks which did make a little bit more space for B2 to practice her kicking, something she is still practising 2 years later...

YummyMummy that is a lovely photo of your kids on your av too :)

:eek: WOW That's one Big Beautiful Belly you have there!

I LOVE your new avatar too!

I have noticed the stretching outwards too! How far around are you now? If I may ask. I am about 13 1/2 square of toilet paper (120cm) :p

So hopefully we will keep on growing and make it to about 37-38 weeks :fingerscrossed:

Thanks for that!! Yesterday I was out shopping and one lady stopped me to ask, when WERE you due??? Or is there two in there?? LOL... So these comments have started :rolleyes:

I'm now 34 weeks, and measuring 115cm around. I have always been a bit of a smallish build so it's definitely all out front.

Duchessa, my DH is saying the same thing, that you can't tell I'm pg from behind. Bless him :hugs:

Kylie, nice belly. Hmmmm I wonder how many cms I am. Will measure when I get the chance.

My two keep changing all the time. Head up down and so on :banghead: We want both or one head down, thanks. I was just like it's a bit to soon to be "dropping down". As I don't want them to come early. My two have also had a bit of room to grow into, if you know that I mean. So I don't really look that big for twins, just over due :laughing:

Hello "multiple mummies". I'm new to this and have just found this section. I have 4 beautiful babes, with my youngest two being identical twin girls who turned 1 last week.

Congrats to all of you who are due to have your bubba's in the next few weeks. You are in for a ride but it is so special and you will love it. You will be a "celebrity parent" wherever you go... if you aren't already!

I think my girls "dropped" around 34 weeks and I went into labour a week later... but each case I'm sure would be totally different.
Good luck... you will see your ankles again soon...:)

Good luck... you will see your ankles again soon...:)

Mmmm I have not seen them for a very long time :laughing: But my DH does paint my toe nails for me. It must be true love :kiss:

I went to the doctor yesterday and he said everything is fine, they are both head down :smiliedance: So fingers crossed for a v-birth. And weight in at girl 3lb 10oz and boy 4lb 120z. So we just need to keep on growing. Thanks for all your in put.
