Brainsmama, I'm so sorry. We asked that my FIL treat us respectfully or not be in our lives, and he chose to not be in our lives. It's been a very painful thing for us. We've tried everything, even family therapy, to get us to the...

I just stumbled upon this post here, I remember a few weeks ago you were just asking in the multiples section about birth options. Congratulations on your babies! Glad they arrived safely and you had a wonderful home labor...
