When I delivered the twins at 38 w, 1d I measured 48 weeks (for a singleton). I felt huge! I have an aquantaince right now that is in her 34th week and she is measuring 56!!! There's a wide range for how big you can get, but when I asked my OB, he told me that the uterus will expand to what's needed. Congrats! I hope that your comfort level will improve.

It is suggested that at 32 weeks you will have a uterus the same size as a singleton pregnancy at 40 weeks. If you want to see some pics of twin bellies check out 'about.com' int he pregnancy area -http://pregnancy.about.com/cs/pregnancyphotos/l/bltwinbelliess.htm If it makes you feel any better, I am 21 weeks with twins and have already gain 30 pounds. I fear that I will need a trolley to carry my belly around on towards the end. I guess the key thing to hope for is two healthy size babies, so nothing else matters!!

I had my last appointment at 37 weeks before I went into labor and I was measuring at 52 or 54 weeks. Sounds pretty normal to me. I have seen shorter twin moms (I'm 5'8") measure a lot bigger. I don't know if it is from lack of room or what. Don't be worried. Measuring the uterus with twins is pretty pointless. I think it is more for the DR's morbid curiosity than anything else! LOL!

I'm coming up on 37 weeks and I'm huge. My doc won't tell me how big I'm measuring, but I know it's waaaay bigger than a singleton mom would be at this point. I'm not even sure why she measures me, they check the growth of the babies every 3 weeks by u/s. It's all part of carrying multiples. I can't imagine how long it's going to take for my belly to deflate after they're born :)
