Who told you that you couldn't carry to term? I had twins a day shy of 37 weeks and went into labor on my own. While it was uncomfortable for me as the days went on, I would have carried my twins until 40 weeks if that's when they wanted to make their appearance.
While I have no doubt you will not carry to 40 weeks, you should want to carry them as long as possible.
Having one A-OK 37 weeker is not the same as having twins. Hell, even if you were having another singleton, it still wouldn't be the same. Pregnancy is a case by case basis.
I'm sorry you are miserable, but frankly who ever told you that you couldn't and shouldn't carry to term has you up in arms for nothing (unless there is some medical reason as to why they are telling you that) because it sounds like a bunch of BS.

i am 32 weeks pregnant with identical boys, and i have a scheduled c section date of 12/4 which i will be 39 weeks then
the longer they stay in the healthier they will be, try to hold out as long as you can and i gained 20lbs so far but im not worried it will come off in time
besides nothing beats having happy n healthy babies
im gonna stop working at 35 weeks anyway, my thighs hurt bad standing all day thats it though,my babies weigh 4lbs and 3.6lbs

My docs wanted to deliver on 11/2 that would have made my 38wks. But I want into labor on my own on 10/5 at 34wks. You want those babies to stay in as long as they can, both my girls are still in to NICU.
As far as the weight I gained 35 pounds and I have already lost it all and I'm wearing my old clothes. I couldn't belive how fast it came off.

thank you to both of you for the comments- this makes me feel a little better now.. i was told by my dr that carrying to far with wls was dangerous as my pouch could be damamged- as there was word of a patient who had gb, preg with twins and went to 39 weeks- had her stomach all tie itself in knots and caused major gastric complications she almost died.. since he obvs is not the expert and we all are here since we went through the surg, I sure feel better hearing what you have to say. thanks again everyone.
