multiple births

yes, I know a few people that has had twins. Lets see my mom had 6 kids. Out of the six she only had one set of twin girls. Both my brothers have a set of twins, one of my sister has twin boys and the rest of us didn't have twins. Thos e who do have multiple births are blessed , but as you said definitely have their hands full.

i had a classmate in highschool who were fraternal twins, rosalie and rosemarie. they are already 31 now and they have their own families. i also have cousins who are twins, ronald and reynald. they just graduated from college last march.

My mom's youngest brother and sister are twins. They are nothing alike. I have a cousin on my dad's side, that has two sets of twins. Her oldest set was born in 2001, and her youngest set was born last year. She has a single little boy in between, too. All five of her kids are boys. She has her hands full, when she actually keeps all of them at the same time. A lot of times her dad has the older boys, though. My husband was a twin, but my mother in law lost his twin when she was about 6 months along. Someone hit her in the stomach with something, and she almost lost my husband, too, but with staying on bedrest for the rest of the pregnancy, she was able to have him fine. I think he was born around 35-36 weeks, so he wasn't as early as they were expecting. Everyone keeps telling us that we have high chances of having twins, but I don't want them! One baby is enough work, I don't want to double the load! Maybe if my son is old enough to help, instead of still needing so much care himself, it would be okay, though.

in my family, there had been no multiple births at all. when i attended grade school, i had classmates who were exact look alikes and they were always together. that is how i learned about identical twins, they were boys. then, as i moved up to high school, i had a schoolmate whom they said to have a male twin. a teacher explained to me about fraternal twins. there is really so much magic about life. in understood these occurrences better when we took up biology in my third year in high school. as for your friend who has quads, i am beginning to wonder how she managed to take care of them all at the same time.

I dont know anyone personally, but I have seen many shows on t.v. documenting the births of multiple babies. I give these parents much kudos for being able to handle that! I don't know if I could do it. I know they must be tired much of the time and their personal time is down to a minimum. It is hard!

hi nicolecab! i dont have twins or quads, but my grandmother born with twin, they're not identical coz the other one is a boy, sometimes having twins for the first born is good specially when they're boy and girl..

We don't have a hitory of multiples in our family so it was a surprise my sister had twins. A boy and a girl. They are 8 now. I have 3 kids of my own and every first doctor visit when you get to hear the heartbeat also to check and see if there are more than one, I have anticipation and fear. I hope to someday have multiples, but freak out at the same time. I think those that do have multiples are blessed double. We are all still blessed to have one too.
