I gave birth naturally to my twins at 37.5 weeks. The second baby was breech and I still went for it. The whole labour went so well that I just don't understand why the majority of Chinese doctors always recommend C-section. Perhaps it's just more convenient for them?

C-sections should only be done if medically necessary. The healing process is far more painful and it will prevent you from being back on your feet on the day of delivery to look after your two babies.

Hi Amy, where did you give birth to your twins?

I am 12 weeks pregnant with twins - still early days, so have not yet discussed delivery with my Dr. Would love to try to give birth naturally, but had an emergency c-section (because of fetal distress) last time and am not sure Dr's would allow VBAC with twins?

I gave birth at The Matilda Hospital up at the Peak. It was wonderful in terms of service and comfort but I guess you expect top service with the amount they charge!
