@ cytosine... Try to relax as much as you can as our mental health is directly effecting the physical wee-being. In pregnancy, both Mother and baby's. Worrying won't help you much.

Try to divert your mind by pursuing nay hobby or whatever relaxes you.. reading / listening to music / knitting/ playing any online game or whatever else you like. Try to be surrounded by positive people and invite friends who fill you with positive thoughts.

Also, try not to think about pregnancy 24/7. Fill your mind with other good thoughts and this difficult time would just fly off

Hi Cytosine,
Welcome to the club.

Don't worry too much. It will be alright. Negative thoughts won't be good to your babies. Believe that all is going well and you can handle it! Many troubles can be handled well through out mental strength.
I had Cerclage and in bed rest as well. You can do minimal activities if your health is good.
For HB, use iron supplements along with Vit C base foods. That will improvise the absorption rare of iron. You can try meat if you are a non vegan. Don't add calcium foods like milk along with iron supplements. Nothing will be of use! Hope your hb levels will improve soon. With pregnancy hb levels are supposed to reduce. You twins so, the effect will be double! Take a good care of you!

You have crossed 18W. You can manage the rest as well! Be confident! All the best!

Hi Cytosine,
May be you can increase egg intake to daily. At least egg white. Its rich in protein and it will help you a lot. Include more veg & fruits too.
Take care.

Hi all,

How u guys r doing? I m in my 31 week, but still my bump is not that big . Many people cant even think that I m due in September. Though I m tall, but still... What about ur bump sizes?

Also how often u feel ur baby kicking. Are they strong?

I pray for all of you to have a smooth and healthy delivery.
Take care.
