These lists that are collating (eg. waterbirths and Breech VB) are a wonderful resource. Riding on Kelly's ideas for perhaps a list of Obs/Hosp/MW that support twins VB...could be useful too...?

Kristin,
I've only seen a dvd of a homebirth of twins..there was a good gap between
twin 1 and 2. From memory around 40 minutes (but perhaps longer) second twin
was breech and took atleast 15 minutes to be born once her body was out. It
was a waterbirth.
I can't imagine these time's

I have a couple of questions re
twins:
Can you do EFM with twins ?
Or are they usually monitored with the doppler?
How long is is typically between twins birth
Thanks to all for your reponses. I shall digest and relay this information 'gently' to the CBE couple I have.
Already (since doing the course) they have changed Obst and also hospitals, plus are also arranging a doula.
You are all right in saying there are no guarantees and it will come down to

Is it usually baby-placenta, baby-placenta or can it be baby-baby-placenta-placenta?
If ECV is needed to help Twin 2 - does the mother
Hi all,
I'm a CBE and have had a call from a lady with twins looking to attend the course I'm running. Seeing I've never had much to do with twins (preg, birthor babycare) I was hoping some of you could shed some light on some important points or issues that I could pass onto her.
Thanks so much,

Hi guys,
I need to ask your advice again if you don't mind. I saw my twins couple
again tonight and the mum was very tense. They had just gone to see their Ob
and he discussed the birth with them.
1. He has told them that they must head for the hospital as soon as she is
in labour as twins
All sounds like advance preparation for a C/S to me. MM

It certainly sounds like the ob is rubbing his hands together waiting for
his c/section fee!! Probably by his management, his twins do arrive in 4
hours, hauled out or cut out.
I've been around probably 6 sets of twins in my time, and also have John
Stevenson's data on 12 sets he was involved

story a lot of it looks the same kind of
thing as here, and certainly sounds the same sort of thing that your client
is going through.
Hope this helps,
