So I will be 29 weeks tomorrow and the count down has begun. I am so excited to meet these little guys but so very nervous at the same time. My OB said that once I hit 36 weeks he will let me go but if I start to contract before that he will try and stop it. He also said most mom's of multiples have their babies by 38 weeks. So I am just wondering how far along everybody was when they went into labor and how did your labor start??

29 weeks 4 days. I think my labor started on Easter Sunday. I had terrible lower back pain but it was non-stop (there was no pattern to make me think contractions) so I didn't think it was anything other than I slept funny and strained my back carrying the twins. The next evening my little girl's water broke. The doctor's tried to stop my labor and did for 3 days by giving me magnesium but after I was taken off it, I started having contractions that night. They tried stopping it again but it didn't work. Next thing I knew our son and daughter were born! They're in NICU but they're doing really good. Good luck!

33 weeks and 2 days...they have been in NICU for 18 days and we're bringing them home in the next 3 days. :) They are healthy and perfect in every way...just came a little early and needed some help learning to breathe and suck simultaneously.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
