Mummas of Twins/multiples.

I'm 31 weeks pregnant with DCDA twins. I've had a couple of complications lately (fever, high blood pressure) etc. I just know that my body isn't going to go much longer.

Did anyone else know they were going to be early, just from instinct? Were you right?

My partner has gone back to work and i’m finding it so difficult to feed both of them - both bottle fed.

I have one twin who seems to be a lot needier than the other, and as soon as they wake for a feed there’s no warning signs or cues… just blood curdling screaming as soon as she wakes, as if she’s never been fed so 90% of the time she’ll be the first one to be tended to.

But on the rare occasion twin 2 wakes first for a feed and twin 1 is sound asleep, it’s like twin 1 can sense it and she’ll scream the house down until you put the other one to the side and tend to her instead which ends up with the first twin not being fully winded after their feed and therefore won’t settle. That sets of the cycle of “pick up twin 1, nappy, feed, start to burp, twin 2 starts screaming, pick up twin 2, console, feed, try to burp, twin 1 starts screaming, tend to twin 1, twin 2 starts etc etc”

I’ve tried using an M shaped feeding pillow to prop them both up in to feed but that’s a struggle since they can’t support their own heads and it’s better if they feed with a straight back, they end up sitting like prawns in that. And I can’t pick them both up at the same time, nor can I hold two babies and two bottles - i’m not an octopus.

What do I do?!

Has anyone been through this and can relate ?

Went to my first appointment which was an ultrasound and found out we are having twins!! Omg, I don’t know how to feel, so much unknown! We have a little one who will be about 2.5 when they are born. Any advice from mommas how you manage all 3 or have twins in general! What was your pregnancy and labor experience?? TIA

Hello :) I am 19 wks (+3 days) and experiencing really uncomfortable cramps and this evening some pain in the vagina

I’m pregnant with non identical twins and have anterior and posterior placenta

I’ve not yet felt movements…

Is this the start of feeling them move? Growing pains? Something else?

Not sure what to think xx
