Birth plan?

Question

Hey ladies expecting twins i have 12 weeks left and starting to worry about birthing plan, how u ladies going to give birth?

Answer

We are waiting to see what is going to happen. They are thinking on inducing me at 34 weeks but it will depend is the babies don't have TTTS  or other problems. X

Answer

I was induced at 38 weeks with my twins (this was my 3rd induced vaginal delivery). I was prepped for a c-section & set up in a surgical room just in case there was an emergency while delivering. Everything went well, except twin B's cord was wrapped around her neck & things got scary for a couple minutes. I always suggest trying a vaginal delivery (with your doctor's approval) just because I think mom's recovery is easier.

Answer

Be VERY flexible with your birthing plan... I had my plan set. I knew exactly how I wanted my experience to go.. BUT babies had other plans.. I went into preterm labor at 27 weeks and was admitted to hospital- almost 3 hours from home- until the boys were born.. It went nothing like I had planned. I had to have an epidural once I reached 7 cm because baby B hadn't moved as was breach. I didn't want an epidural! I never felt a single contraction from the time labor began! And then I had the epidural and felt nothing at all! I never felt my babies enter the world. And then they took my babies before I was even able to hold them. It was a horrid experience and not at all as I expect or had planned. 
If I ever have more babies I won't be making a birth plan at all- personal choice. 
In the end all that matters is that your babies make it here safely and that your safe.
