Guest guest Posted June 15, 2004 Report Share Posted June 15, 2004 I was no different with twins. I actually had an easier pregnancy with twins and did not gain as much weight with them since I went on the diabetic diet cause i had gestational diabetes. I felt wonderful though. I did have to get induced at 33 1/2 weeks though cause i lost my water early and the smaller twins was getting distressed over it but they were perfect little babies when they came out and the smallest, , only had to stay 13 days in NICU even though he was only 3#10 when he was born Now they are 8 and hell on wheels, lol.... God Bless, Robin, NorthEastern, NY Age- 41 EDD- July 27th, 2004 IT'S A BOY!!!!!! Mommy to: & (twin boys 8 years), Madison, daughter, 5 years and Wife to Pup 15 years (October 31, 1988) Gastric Bypass Surgery- October 18th 2002 Start-378, current- 246(pregnant) goal 170 after baby It's a BOY!!!!!

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2005 Report Share Posted March 7, 2005 A big THANKS to all who were able to offer advice on help with the DBB. I went back to 23/7 starting on Sat morning. Sat night was still horrible..took them off at 3am and back on at 8:30 Sun morning. But Sunday night was much better (just with a rough start). I'll continue 23/7 for a couple of days then slowly reduce down to 18/7 for awhile before going back to 14/7. We go to Dr. Rathjen at ish Rite in Dallas, Texas. Does anyone else go over there? Thanks again, Mommy to (9/30/00) and (8/1/04) BCF DBB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
