Brother and Sister born on the same day

Published

So let me set the scene for you. Baby momma #1 gets admitted in the early AM for labor gets admitted into LDR #5. Later that afternoon baby momma#2 walks into triage as a labor check. Baby daddy walks out of the LDR #5 (proudly mind you)to tend to Baby momma#2. She gets admitted. Baby daddy asks our nurse manager if they can put baby mamma #2 into a neighboring room. Nurse manager goes :confused: :eek: . The unit is too busy and we cannont accomodate his request. As baby mamma#2 walks down the hall she wants to stop by and say hi to baby mamma#1. Baby daddy goes back and forth until baby mamma#1 delivers around 4pm. Then 6hrs later baby mamma#2 delivers.

And oh yeah these aren't his first kids and he was overheard bragging that there is another pregnant girl out there carrying yet another one of his baby's. :banghead:

Wow. That is so sad for those babies. That guy better get a job (or three) because it sounds like he's got a lot of child support he'll be paying for.

Like I said before, the guy needs a vasectomy. He needs to support his kids, and get with one woman, but he doesn't need t be making any more kids. I rather doubt he'll be able to support the two he has now!

I feel sorry for the kids involved. Unfortunately in our society this is happening more frequently. I am disturbed by some of the judgemental comments on this post. Do we know that these women are on welfare? I can only hope that these women will wake up and have better respect for themselves. Those of you who are OB nurses, do you ever give encouraging comments to the mothers or just roll your eyes in disgust? I hope that you are setting good examples for us nurses out there! We have to be professional in everything that we do. I know that some of you are very busy on your sometimes understaffed units, burnedout or what ever, but who knows, you may have a positve effect on these young ladies. You guys are strong women and role models! Please think about that the next time one of these ladies comes across your way. Girl Power!

Sad to admit, but my daughter is in a predicament similar to this. It is embarrassing for people that know the whole story about my grandson's dad. First of all, he had a son when my daughter was dating him. Okay, I can deal with that. However, some woman had a baby to him while he was seeing my daughter. She found out that he was the father of this baby just a matter of "days" before finding out that she was pregnant. So, my grandson has a sister that is 10 mos. older than him.

However, he is involved with all of his children. He does pay child support and is a hard worker. He has complained to me about how hard he works, and mentioned a few times that he should be a "deadbeat dad" like other guys. I am quick to remind him that he is doing his job and NOT going above and beyond. He created these kids, so he is responsible for all of them. It breaks my heart that my grandson may think that it is normal for siblings to have different dads and mothers. As his dad's brothers have children to three different women, too. They should have gotten a family discount on vasectomies!

I was young and stupid once. (But, my kids have same mother & father and no other siblings) I married a loser and left him when my children were very young. My son was three, and my daughter was just 10 months. My ex was a very inconsistent dad. If it wasn't for his mother who was very close to my children, he would have never seen them. But, my point here is that my daughter did not have a father in her life. However, she was raised in a very stable environment. I lived with my mother for years and am very family oriented. We all went to church every Sunday and had the whole family over for dinner. So, it wasn't that she had a pathetic upbringing. It was just no dad in the picture.

My daughter was a victim in this situation. She had no idea that her BF was cheating on her. Can you imagine her devastation to learn that he was the father of a baby? Can you imagine the devastation when she found out days later that she was pregnant? Can you imagine her embarrassment when she had a baby at the same hospital the other lady did? And, the nurses all remembered him!:imbar

Oh, BTW my daughter is not on welfare.

Iwanna, there's a big difference between your daughter who didn't know her BF was unfaithful, and women who know exactly what they're getting into when they go out with some of these men. Men who are married (often to their best friend), men who impregnated and abandoned friends of theirs, or their sisters, men that they KNOW are abusive ("But he wouldn't be that way with me!"), etc.
