[GtoRA2]

6? Holly crap man!

Congrats!



Enjoy as much sleep as you can get now. You will need it.

I recommenda a wrist rocket or good sling shot for when they are older, you can feed them very fast from wherever you're standing in the kitchen.

6 is not wow.. it's more like 'prayers for your wife and kids' because humans are not designed to carry that many children.

Even triples have a hard time surviving - with six there are bound to be serious complications. Are the doctors going to abort part of the fetuses?

That is sadly too true...

[Steve]

Are the doctors going to abort part of the fetuses?

Yes, they are going to abort their legs.



So far all 6 are very normal.  We will have tests for chromosome and congenital abnormalities.

SEXtuplets...

That should provide more than a few Beavis and Butthead moments.

Good Luck Steve.

[Sandman]

You poor poor man.

Best of luck.






Time to work in that reality TV gig. We can watch on television and you can fund their college educations.

The more I think about this situation the more I agree.

MY GOD that is going to be alot of work.  

Your poor poor wife.  She is gonna go through hell carrying all those kids.  

Maybe you guys should buy a recording of crying babies so that you have at least 6 months to get used to the sound?

SIX?

Jebus.

[Sandman]

Imagine for a moment the cost of diapers for six.

Then, imagine the cost of formula.

[Curval]

...and then when they get older...SCHOOL FEES.

If my wife had 6 children we would be paying $72,000/year to educate them...at 6 years old.

I can't even begin to imagine what College would cost.

[Gooss]

Congratulations, Steve.  "Awesome" seems like an appropriate term here.  

Hope your wife and they stay healthy.  

Lessee... that'll be around $1200 for tee-ball.  Yowza.  

Buy a shoe store.

HONK!

Thanks for posting this, best wishes both to you and to your whole family. Whatever happens, it's going to be stressful on you - remember there's friends here.
