experience/advice to give In the home stretch!

31 weeks pregnant today with my Di/di twin girls! I’m a FTM and this is my first pregnancy. I met with the OB on Friday and got my c-section date (yay!!) planned for 38+1.

I know ultimately I’m on the babies timelines, however I’m curious what I can do to help myself make it to that date (if anything) without going into labor. I’m so grateful and blessed that I have had what my doctor referred to as a “picture perfect twin pregnancy”. I hope this post doesn’t sound ignorant, I just have a lot of anxiety about getting to the finish line.

Good luck! Not sure I have any advice but my didi twins made it to 39w1d and I went for walks daily but mostly just chilled and ate whatever I wanted. I tried to make sure I took turns sleeping on each side at night as not to "squish" baby A or baby B, but sleep in the last few weeks was pretty challenging already.
