I am pregnant with twins. When should I give birth?

17-18 weeks pregnant, Prenatal

Hello Marie, I am pregnant 33 weeks five days pregnant with twin girls! Yesterday I had an ultrasound, and the girls are doing great. 5lbs for both. The doctor at the CHUS said I was 2cm dilated and my cervix was 80% effaced…Based on your expertise, how long till I give birth? Should I expect my girls soon? Thanks!
