Amari - it really is a good thing to pile on the weight with twins - I gained 75 lbs with my twins and ghey came out a great size - 6 lbs and 7 lbs. Protein is especially important too. There's a famous book by Barbara Luke with diet recommendations for multiple pregnancies you should check out if you haven't already.

Thanks, Atomic and Mocha. It is grossing me out how hungry I am. But I guess it is for a reason! I will check that book out, Mocha. Those are great birth weights, how many weeks were they when they were born?

I was induced at 37W5D, but the babes were not ready to come out - I ended up with an emergency c-section for failure to progress - I think I could have easily carried them for at least another week.

One of the reasons it's important you gain weight early is that later in the pregnancy you're going to find it hard to eat much at all because the babies will be taking up so much room in there. Eat while you can!

This is the book, by the way:
