Thanks, El Gatp, for the Twin update....my baby knowledge is less than limited, but it seems all new mommies I know have said their babies have/had some degree of jaundice. Must be fairly common. Lucky grandpa getting to help at meal times, and doing such a good job. Good news that both girls are gaining weight.

A little over 50% of full term newborns. Something like 95% of preemies. With preemie meaning at least 3-4 weeks early.

As you can imagine it's a topic of conversation, and my daughter is very big on doing her homework, so she *knew* the numbers.
