How exciting!!!
I went and read some of her posts. While I was reading them I got the the
distinct impression that I was reading something written by a teenager. It does make you wonder.... Tori Mommy to: Lauren & Madison 4/4/01 "Taniwha grrrl" wrote in message ... "Julie Seely" wrote in message ... 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. -- Andrea If I can't be a good example, then I'll just have to be a horrible warning. |

Being incompetent, I wasn't able to find Gwen't own thread, but I did find
another in which someone warned a worried preg. poster that Gwen's tale was fishy and not to let it scare her. Unless that was someone from *here* who just popped in for a moment, it seems strange that noone has called Gwen on it yet. Of course, maybe they have and I just didn't find it :-) --Janet Elliot, Hanna, Connor (10/21/96) and Holly (4/4/01) "Megan" wrote in message ... Has anyone else caught on to this or called "Gwen" on it? Just wondering... Megan~ Mommy to A & A 16 months old!! www.babiesonline.com/babies/a/aidannalexis |

it seems strange that noone has called Gwen on
it yet. No one has, from what I can tell. Now she started a thread about "wishing she had something to do". She is bored because all the babies do is sleep. Yep, I was bored with newborn twins, weren't you? She supposedly has two other kids too, and a husband who sleeps around. Really, it's laughable. Someone also asked her for pictures of the babies and she just "didn't know when she would get to it". Maybe because they don't exist?? MAJOR whack-job.

I think people are catching on and are just ignoring her. There is a lot more going on in other forums so she isn't all that interesting ATM. -- Brigitte aa #2145 edd #3 February 15, 2004 http://www.babiesonline.com/babies/j/joshuaandkaterina/ "Readers are plentiful; thinkers are rare." ~ Harriet Martineau |
