Me, too. As in, "Well, my due date was supposed to be... but since 36
weeks is term for twins... " etc. Also, the guideline that "anywhere
between 38 and 42 weeks is term" is interpreted differently for twins
and singletons. For twins, that means that 38 weeks is term. For
singletons, it means inducing after 40 weeks. Go figure.
