Hi Bimboo,
Nice to meet you. It has been a little quite in this thread, most of us were posting in one started by Azzrenae but the mods have since closed it, there were a few twin mums to be but they have all had their bubs, it was sort of just me hanging around, so glad you are hear and also glad you are on the Gold Coast too.
Sorry to hear you lost a triplet, that must be very hard, I can't imagine. But glad to hear you are doing well (relatively ) and to get to 32+ weeks is great, I have heard/know plenty of other twins who arrived much earlier. Are your twin ID or fraternal, as I believe fraternal twins tend to bake a little long as they tend not to have some of the issues associated with ID twins like TTTS. Mine are fraternal.
I have a scan tomorrow with my OB to check how they are going, I see Dr Dutt at John Flynn, and am really keen to see if their position as I am hoping for a VB, so twin 1 needs to be head down, fingers crossed.
I can relate to how you feel size wise, I feel huge, and am feeling very tired, I have a lot of pelvic pain on one side, rolling over in bed is so difficult and it is really hard to sleep, have just started getting dead arms and pins and needles at night. But am totally over the moon to be having twins.
You are lucky you have experience with your daughter, she sounds like a dream, I hope this puts you in good stead for the twins arrivals. Do you know what you are having?
I mentioned in a previous post I joined the multiple birth association on the Gold Coast, they have some great information and help, like breast feeding pillow hire, and can also lend you a tub of premmie clothes to use for the first month or so so you don't need to buy so much.
Let me know if you would be up to a catch up for coffee, I am keen to meet other twin mums too.
