Hi all,

I started this thread for anyone who wants to come here for lite discussion, jokes, and just general discussion and fun.

Everyone is welcome!

I was thinking that maybe it would be helpful to keep the original thread to a bit more of a serious discussion of the clues and answers.

This would make the original thread more useful to those seeking serious information and clues without having to read through hundreds of extraneous messages.

So, I hope it catches on !

So pop a beer and pull up a chair and relax !

One thing I noticed with my girls....they didn't like using the "potty seat" when it sat on the floor next to the "big girl toilet". I took the seat off, put it on the regular toilet, and put a footstool in there....they climbed right up and used it then.

That is what I think I am gonna do too. I am sure if they had a little one, all they would want to do it play with it like a toy. LOL.

OMG, twins rock! My kid had those weird ones, where one sucks all the nutrients and sometimes the weak one doesn't make it! Glad to report they both made it!!! to the tune of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ The little one is just a little behind, but he's holding his own! They were only 2 lbs apart at birth, i guess that's good, for that type of preg! Wish i knew how to download pics, guess that's upload, im a computer moran. So good to hear from you twin moms, my kid has really been struggling!!
Tell her to hang in there....it really does get easier!!! And, the rewards of being their parent are endless!

Quote from dux54 :
just gotta ask, ive heard so much about secret, or should i say, uninterpreted by adults, languages between twins, did you ever see or sense that?
Oh yeah....all the time. Even before they could talk, they communicated with each other. And I swear they can still talk to each other without saying a word.

did you use a different method laugh out loud
LOL... That reminds me of when I was little, my older brother was not potty trained by the time I came along and my dad was upset cause my brother was stubborn. Well, my brother did his thing one day, and my dad stripped him naked took him out in the yard and sprayed him down with the hose... LOL.. needless to say, he was potty-trained from then on...LOL.

See, And you didn't think I knew what I was talking about. But, I do have to ask; After swapping those toilet seats didn't ya feel a little awkward using that little bitty one?

My sister and I were born 18 mos apart and we had our own language. We were always very close. When I was pregnant with my son they told me it was twins and they were fairly sure the one on the ultrasound was a girl. I was in an accident and lost one but we never really brought it up. My son says that his whole life he has felt like someone is missing.

Quote from beatle_chik :
Mine were born two months premature due to eclampsia, so I know that the little ones are definately fighters. My smallest one was the strongest when she was born. It is a good thing that your grand-twins survived. All the twin moms and grandparents here....wow.

I always thought after having 4 in 5 years, twins would have been easier, WRONG. I have so much actual compassion for for my daughter! She has so struggled, luckily I am retired and can help her at will, frankly, when I have them all day alone, i just want to hug her for all she does!!!! Do you gals know of any great websites i can turn her on to for support? She works, is dead ass tired and could use some support other that her mom.

when I was growing up there were twins that had a complete language all their own know one could understand them when they talked to eack other
That's so scary! Secretly,I've been working on a sign/verbal thing with them. Its hard because my mega brainy/honor/bilingual/college graduate/sign language fricking expert, who speaks 3 languages, thinks she can teach them everything! Ya, let her crack the secret code i've been working on! Secret twin shit, whatever, im so in on this shi22! Code word Mogi
