I have identical twins, so it was natural When I find out someone I know is undergong fertility treatments, I make sure theyunderstand that they are at risk for having multiples and how hard it is to have twins.

I was on complete bedrest for my twins. They were born healthy at 36 and a half weeks, but then they got sick at 6 weeks old and both almost died. One of them has a brain injury. She’s had a difficult time with speech, but with los of work she is now a junior in high school with straight As. My other daugther was doing great until 2 years ago. She was diagnosed with a movement disorder, dystonia. She was in a ventilator for a month when she was a baby, so I wonder if it affected her some way.

I had ine friend tell me the risks were small for her having twins, and I told her the risk for me was small. She had twins.
