Every week I think - wow what a big belly! Then the next week rolls around and it feels twice as big! Babycenter shows an "inside view" of twins at 4 week increments which makes me understand why I am getting so...round! The only difference with the picture below is that our twins are vertical - head to toe, and they share a placenta. My ob said I wouldn't make it to 40 weeks, so we are more than half way there! She said the longest she has seen twins go is about 37 1/2 weeks - and she wouldn't be surprised if it was even earlier. Anything past 35 weeks, the pediatricians send their "term" team (ie it's a full term baby). So, 35 weeks is a big goal! So, expect the girlies late March to early April (April 5th maybe?!?!?).
