    well it was totally unofficial, but I swear it was twins day at our pediatrition today! I took 5yo DS in for his check up and couldn't for the life of me find anyone available to babysit! so I too all 5 kids to his checkup.

    so I walk in, and get checked in, then sit down w/ the twins car seats in front of me, and the lady next to me askes if they're twins. I say yes, and she tells me she's a twin, and so is her DH. so I had fun talking to her until she got called back. then a lady walks in w/ her 6 kids, and they all sit down. then a lady pushing a double stroller w/2 car seats in it comes in. she gets all checked in, and notices my boys. so we talk for a minute, and the lady w/ the 6 kids askes about the lady w/ the stroller's girls, and mentions that she has twins! and I think the receptionist schedueled a well child check up for twins too because she said, "when will they be 18 months?" that would make for 6 sets in the same office at the same time! I've never seen twins in that office b-4! and w/ my other 3 I've been there a lot over the last few years. it was crazy fun. sure made it not so bad to have to take all my kids just for an apointment for one of them.

    anyway just wanted to share my fun story.

    There were four sets at the peds office one time when I took my little ones in. I just couldn't believe it. During my pregnancy, there were 5 of us expecting twins at the same office. My ob says its in the water these days! Seriously, it does seem like its more prevalent now, doesn't it? Anyone know any statistics?

    That's cool, we've run into quite a few sets at our ped's office too. My hats off to you taking all the kids with you to their appointment, my DH does it all the time and I have no idea how! My kids absolutely adore their pedi so when we take them in they're climbing all over him and wanting to talk and play! Guess that's better than shying away though :rolleyes:
