Yeah, I was a little suspicious, too! I'll have to go over there and
check it out! Is she posting under "pregnant w/ twins" ?

It seems kinda weird. I read her message while in the hospital. And she has a
great imagination if she isn't telling the truth. Maybe she is just not as
precautions as some of us were when we were carrying twins.

I couldn't help but go and check out that board. My questions to her would be:
whose laptop is she using? Did she grab it on her way out the door as her
preemie twins were basically falling out of her? And her husband who
supposedly posted on the birth 55 minutes after it happened? Who would think
to make *that* a priority? I have to agree that this all sounds very fishy.
But I haven't been there for the whole story so I just can't say. Hmmmm.

Click on the "Pregnant with Multiples" board here. No one

seems yet to have
picked up on the troll thing...

http://bwi169.tempdomainname.com/vbulletin/



Ok well I went and read it, it smells like a troll to me,
but it was realistic and consistent enough that is 'could'
of been real so I'll reserve judgement until I've seen
pictures...lol
I can see how those less sceptical than me will have
believed it though. I'm just jaded, I've seen a few net
trolls who make these sort of stories up, and do a pretty
convincing job too.

Anyway here's my run down and opinion on her messages...

11.57pm
she posts that she's having mild pain on and off

9 mins later...
she posts in reply to someone she's nearly 34 weeks

5 mins later...
she say's contractions are 5 minutes apart and really
hurting (which meant she must of had 3 in those 15 minutes)

1 min later...
she say's 'Jesus I think something's wrong' and asks for
advice on what to do

7 min later...
she reads the previous posts (which would take some effort
to concentrate on when your in pain) to her and replies it
was really bad but now it's stopped and the pains are
constant.
She also say's her husband is at the movies and her 2 year
old is asleep.

11 mins later...
say's her waters have broken all over the floor, she doesn't
want to move, is simultaneously on the phone with doctor
(and on hold)

6 mins later...
still reading posts with coherency enough to reply to
peoples questions, has managed to phone her husband in that
time also and say's he's on the way and will be their in 10
minutes. So in 6 minutes she's been taken off hold I
presume, finished speaking to the doctor, rang her husband
(who managed to take the call inside the movie) read her
messages and labour.

4 mins later...
Say's her husband will be there soon, she thinks it will be
ok, but she's crying as she say's that. Say's she doesn't
know what she will call the babies (um that would be the
last thing on my mind, don't know about anyone else) say's
she doesn't want to wake her 2 year old up because she will
be scared and will cry.

1 min later...
say's she can't stand up

2 mins later...
asks for name advice, do people like the name Bonnie.

2 mins later...
still able to read her messages and reply to them, answers
questions from others and tells them she's not lying down,
daughter is 2, husband will be home soon etc Also asks if
they like the name Bonnie again.

4 mins later....
still reading and replying to questions, say's her
contractions are every 1-2 minutes

1 minute later...
answering more questions

6 mins later...
Has been barraged with responders telling her to call
ambulance, she say's she has called ambulance and it's on
it's way as is husband. Also 2 year old daughter has now
woken up, but isn't scared or crying like earlier predicted,
but is standing with her hand on mamas tummy (aww) That's
exactly like how two year olds act when they wake from naps,
serene and loving.
She say's everything will be fine, say's she'll let everyone
know how it goes, and ends with a smilie and a warm message
of "thanx to u all your angels".

1hr 23mins later...
husband posts under her name saying she had the babies 55
minutes ago (28 mins after her last post) The babies were
born at home in the lounge, the ambulance was there with
some nursing staff. Babies have been named, with middle
names, already. Not bad going for someone who only 2 hours
ago had no idea what to call them. They have also been
weighed. 3lb 4oz and 3lb 6oz.

What makes me suspicious here is Ambulances don't carry
nursing staff. If nurses were there they would have needed
to of been dispatched separately by the hospital, and this
is not standard practice in Australia as far as I know. The
ambulance transports and staff are on call for when they
arrive. So I'm not sure why nurses were there.
Also she had full names so soon after a surprise early
deliver when she clearly hadn't a clue what to call them
earlier, and the husband knew them (my husband still can't
recall some of our kids middle names...lol), he even spelled
them right.
Lastly they were weighed. What medical professional arrives
at a premature birth of twins at home and weighs the babies?
You stabilise and transport, you don't muck around with
unimportant things like weighing. That was just odd.


24 hours later...
she is in hospital with a lap top in her bed, how
convenient for on line chatting, and gives a thank you to
everyone.
Say's the ambulance arrived 5 minutes after she got off the
internet, and her husband arrived 10 minutes after. Turns
out the nurses were midwives. And her 2 year old spent the
night there in the hospital and she is alone with the
sleeping newborn 3lb twins in her room, and the 2 year old
who is serenely colouring on the floor and wearing a ballet
costume.

In her next post the two year old has been there since
8:00am not over night. But still a two year old in a
hospital room from 8:00am to 1:22pm and she's colouring on
the floor while the babies sleep and mum catches up on
emails. If it was my 2 year old he's be tired 'as' by then,
screaming blue murder out of grumpiness, tearing around the
room.
Also 24 hours later her breasts really hurt when said 2 year
old knocked them....that is pretty early for milk to come in
and for breasts to be tender.
Say's she took photos (everyone is asking for them) but said
she won't be able to put them up until she's home. I'll wait
with baited breath but somehow I don't think any will be
forthcoming.

Also say's two year old has already held them, but she had
to support their backs. Prem 3 lb twins, in her room (spent
first night in the nursery not NICU), and the two year old
is holding them with minimal support hmmmm. And now she's a
theatre nurse.

This last bit kind of clinched it for me. Great run-down though. :-)
