How far along? 31 weeks and 2 days
Twins or more? twins
Mo/Di, Mo/Mo, Di/Di? di/di
Genders? b/g
Babies positions? As of 11/29 both of them were breech. They move a lot so who knows what position they are in now. I swear they do somersaults every day.
Any other news? Everybody keeps telling me I look like I am only carrying one. I tell them just wait since right now combined they are a little over 7 lbs which is the size of an average singleton at birth. I bet once they are combined 11 pounds I will definitely look like I am carrying twins. Not much else to report but that I am slowing down and hoping to keep these babies cooking as long as possible!

How far along? 33 weeks
Twins or more? Twins
Mo/Di, Mo/Mo, Di/Di? Di/Di
Genders? b/b
Babies positions? As of 12/4, Baby A was vertex (has been for months) and Baby B was breech. Baby B keeps flipping positions, but has only gone vertex once that I've seen on an u/s.
Any other news? I am getting those looks everywhere I go now. You know, the ones where people think you're about to drop a baby. And I get tons of questions, how soon, boy or girl? Trying to hold these babies in until Jan. 2, then I want them to come out!!

@sunshineandsushi: For some reason in the beginning of the pregnancy I wanted to make it to 38 weeks but now that I am further along I will be fine with them coming anytime between 36-37 weeks! If baby A isn't vertex by 34-35 weeks, my OB said we would schedule a c-section for 37 weeks and the longest they'll let me go before inducing is 38.5 weeks. Will your OB let you deliver vaginally if Baby B is breech? My OB is fine with that and will just do a breech extraction.

@WALLAROO: Same here! I am counting down until Jan. 2, which is 36 weeks, 1 day for me. I'm already sooo uncomfortable!
My OB practice's company policy is both have to be vertex for a vaginal delivery, although one of the doctors told me that some of the doctors may allow a vaginal delivery if baby A is head down. But, since I don't know which OB will end up delivering me, I'm just trying to go by company policy. They also won't let me go past 38.5 weeks also before inducing, although if it comes to that, I'm requesting the first available date once I'm 38 weeks!

How far along? 23 weeks...c'mon viability!
Twins or more? Just two, please and thank you!
Mo/Di, Mo/Mo, Di/Di? They are mo/di.
Genders? Little men!
Babies positions? Depends on the hour. Baby A is generally head down doing exactly what he is supposed to be doing. Baby B on the other hand is alllll over the place. He was transverse last time.
Any other news? No signs of TTTS and our doctor feels like our chances are increasing that they won't develop it at all since there have been no signs so far!! All is well with us, other than that I am starting to get pretty uncomfortable and I cannot imagine what it will be like in another 2 months. I don't know how you ladies are making it! My doctor said term for mo/di is 34-36 weeks, so my goal is to get to 36.

@Mrs. Blue: That is great news that the boys have not shown any signs of TTTS thus far. My sister in law had mo/di boys as well and they didn't have any signs of TTTS and were delivered 37 weeks. As far as being uncomfortable as the weeks go on, my only advice is listen to your body and definitely take it easy. That is sometimes easier said than done for me :). DH has to be the enforcer on that rule. As my instructor in my childbirth class told us, once you get further into the third trimester you just need to focus on gestating.
