Where is everyone? I know AOL is missing lots of newsgroup posts, but I don't
think there have been any here in a long time. So let's have a roll call and get everyone out of hiding! I am Ellen, just turned 37, DH is Steve and he is 40. DD Erin is 9 and in fourth grade, fraternal twin boys Bradley and Alex are 4. Erin was conceived au naturel on the first try, boys after four years of unexplained secondary IF, lots of clomid, injectibles, IUI's and our one very blessed IVF attempt We live in Cleveland. Next?? Ellen -------- Erin 6/26/95 Bradley & Alex 10/5/00 |

Hi everybody,
We lurk most of the time, but we have gotten some good tips and advises in this group. And as Ellen we miss the posts and the news. Great idea Ellen to start a roll call. We are Arjan and Mirethy (33 and 32 yrs). Our twin daughters, Kreychelle and Draychelle, were born after almost 3 years of different treatments. I have what they called Poly cystic Ovaries. I used Clomid, had a little hormones pomp in my wrist 24 hours a day for a few months, etc etc. After all that, they started me on inyections, slowly increasing the dosis. After one miscarriage, we were finally blessed with these two little ones, who are now the best that could ever happened to us. We live in Utrecht, Holland. Mirethy and Arjan proud parents of Krey and Dray born may 12th, 2003. "Ellen Kmetz" schreef in bericht ... Where is everyone?

Hello everyone, I am still here!
My name is Terri, I am 32 years old, and married for 7 years to my wonderful DH Rob. I live in Ontario Canada, near Toronto. My twins are Aimee and Kylie, age 13 months. My son Colton is 4, and in junior kindergarten. He is enjoying it very much. I miss all the activity on this board too, but have been unable to create many posts myself. I have recently been gone back to work full time (after a year's maternity leave) and am finding things really rough. I have no time to myself anymore! Anyway, that is my update. I am still around and still read messages, and will post whenever I can. -- Terri & Rob Colton (11-29-00) Aimee and Kylie (12-22-03) Visit us at: http://www.babiesonline.com/babies/a..._kylie_colton/ "Ellen Kmetz" wrote in message ...

I am Gwen, grandmother to TWO sets of ID twins -- 11 year-old girls, and
just-about 4-year old boys. The girls belong to my son and his wife...the boys belong to my daughter and her husband. Both sets were naturally conceived, both sets were vaginal deliveries, both sets were almost full-term and are doing beautifully. I live in S.E. Pennsylvania with my husband who -- with me -- adores our seven grandchildren. We feel very blessed. Gwen |

I look every day, but there is just spam, spam, spam here. Things have
been going smoothly with us, so I have had nothing really to post. I am Megan (27) and DH is 35. We live at the Jersey Shore, US. We conceived our first set of twins through meds and IUI, only to tragically lose our son at 18 weeks and daughter at 20 weeks due to IC and infection. That was in 2001. We did the same medicated cycle in 2002 and were blessed with Aidan & Alexis, born at 33 weeks (vaginally, too!) on 9/28/2002. They are doing wonderfully! Just had their 24 mo. eval done (a little late at 27 mos.) and they are developing and performing at a full term 27mo. old or older. No seen delays!! Yippee!! They are normal, moody 2 year olds that can be challenging at times, but that's what makes life fun! ~Megan~ "Mama" to twins, Aidan & Alexis |

Gwen,
In previous posts you mentioned working with children. Are you a pediatrician or child psychiatrist or something like that? I know you have always given good advice, but I was not sure whether it was from experience or work training or both. -- Terri & Rob Colton (11-29-00) Aimee and Kylie (12-22-03) Visit us at: http://www.babiesonline.com/babies/a..._kylie_colton/ "GwenO MS" wrote in message ...

Hi,
I am Alison and have read this group for almost 9 years. I rarely post but look in most days. My hubby James reads it too. We live in Aberdeen Scotland. We have Kirsty (18) John (16) and ID twin girls Brodie and Heather (8). They were our little surprise extras to our family. The were born vaginally and full term. They are very good friends and life for them is just fun fun fun! It's like having a friend round to play every day. We put them in different classes at school because the were so close and I felt they needed to make friends with other children. Interestingly their best frinds at school are another set of ID twin girls ...one each. Alison |

Hi everyone,
I see most people have had the twins vaginally, have anyone have one with a C-section and one vaginally like me? Gr, Mirethy "Ellen Kmetz" schreef in bericht ... Where is everyone?

Here in Scotland, they like twins to be born in the operating theatre if possible, in case of complications. The second twin had a dropping heart beat after the first was born and the doctors were getting anxious. They gave me the anti sick liquid (sorry don't know the name) and laid me flat. I was quite distressed as I didn't want a C section and a vaginal birth, so I pushed hard and she popped out! Alison |

We are here too. Can't believe Chris and Kathleen are 10 on Sunday! But
wow 10, can I survive it. Kathleen is now officially 5 feet tall, wears a bra larger than me (thank goodness), size 9.5 women's shoes and is getting nervous about 5th grade - here it's middle school (Central Illinois). Her violin (which I was not looking forward to) lessons are going really well and she actually practices without being told. Chris has been struggling this past year with his medicine for seizures and failing in school as a result from the meds. We took him off one of them and he was accepted into the Special Ed group - it's making a huge difference. His processing ability is crazy and helping him at night do homework is so tough. It's also tough for him to see his twin doing so well (A student). So yes, we've been lurking but no posting. I'm not sure if I posted that my mom died in July, so I am without parents now and the children have one grandmother (whom we take care of and is 90 and sometimes a pill). The kids birthday consists this year of only one friend for something special and it's the first time they are doing something separate. Chris is going to a movie (Flight of the Phoenix no less), with a buddy and then to lunch out (not McDonalds), Kathleen chose to take a friend for a manicure and then lunch and then the mall! What a change from 9! They were born full term (8.6 and 6.11), vaginal delivery and I had 2 doses of chlomid (we have twins on both sides of family). Anyhow, my DH is 58 and I'm a ripe 52. Decided to go natural now, let the gray hair begin but was able to loose about 50 pounds (down to my weight from my 20's). So much is happening and yet it seems so routine. Glad to hear there are others out there instead of just the spam. Shirley Chris and Kathleen 1/23/95 "Ellen Kmetz" wrote in message ... Where is everyone?
