Q: Mommies of Twins?

If there are any women in here who have twins I could greatly use some advice here. I'm almost 29 weeks pregnant with my twins and am just wondering when is the most common time for mothers to give birth to twins. My doc hasn't mentioned anything yet but i'm due april 1st and she said i'll be lucky to make it to the first of march. Any help is appreciated!

Twin Births

I am a mother of identical twin boys....Now they're 34 yrs old. They were due june 20th and I delivered june 5th. Most twin births are early. My labor was only 3 hours long and they were both 5lb 10oz....19 inches long. Both born head first, 5 minutes apart.

My cousin is pregnant with twins and is due early march and I think her docs told her that because of twins then they usually arrive early about 38 weeks give or take. I dont know about a whole month early
