Babies
Questions:
- I have 13-month-old twin boys who are clingy and nervous around other people. Is there anything I can do?
- I have 4-month-old twin girls. It seems that when we are talking to them by their name, they don't respond to it. Sometimes they both look. When do they realize their own name?
- My twin boys were premature. Do I go by their gestation age or their corrective age?
- Is 10 months too early to discipline twins when they are into things that I don't want them in?
- Is 3 months too late for a baby to develop colic, and is it possible for one twin to have colic and not the other?
- How do you manage bathing 9-month-old twins? Do you bathe them together?

- How can I get my twin son to sleep through the night and not wake so early in the a.m.?
- I'm concerned when a friend feeds her 6-month-old triplets cereal. Is there any information I can share with my friend so these infants can learn to enjoy their food and experience the textures?
- I have 8-week-old boy/girl twins. Is it OK to go into their nose to get clean it and ears to get excess wax, and with what should I use to get it out?
- Are natal teeth an indication of whether or not twins are identical?
- My twin girl, 3 months, cries for no reason almost everyday about the same time every day for the past two weeks. Could she have colic?
- Do vaccines for children have mercury in them? I've heard they can be more harmful than good.

- Why do some twins have trouble developing sounds or words?
- When should I start reading to my twins?
