Family Demands Woman Give Up Her Babies To Sister Who “Deserves Them More,” Steals Them After She Refuses

Infertility can be one of the most devastating pieces of news a young couple can receive. Research shows that around 9% of men and 11% of women in the U.S. have experienced fertility problems. Couples cope with the news in different ways, and some even seek help from their siblings.

But what this sister did goes beyond all appropriate ways of dealing with infertility. She had the gall to ask her twin sister to give up her baby because she deserved it more and could take care of it better. Even the parents took her side, since she was always treated like the “golden child.” The young mom-to-be, however, refused and sought help online, asking how to deal with her family.

    Hi there, fellow pandas! As a person (over)educated both in social sciences and literature, I'm most interested in how we connect and behave online (and sometimes in real life too.) The human experience is weird, so I try my best to put its peculiarities in writing. As a person who grew up chronically online, I now try to marry two sides of myself: the one who knows too much about MySpace, and the one who can't settle and needs to see every corner of the world.

    I'm a certified nurse midwife and I find it extremely difficult to believe that this woman went through an entire-@ss pregnancy with no one ever realizing there were 2 fetuses. Her growth would be off compared to singleton, which would have caused further testing. 2 fetuses = 2 heartbeats. The early ultrasound around 8 weeks would have shown both fetuses . . . it's not possible for one to hide behind the other at that size. Even at 20 weeks, both fetuses would have been seen. Theoretically it's possible, but practically? Nah. No way this happened.

    Yeah, I thought as much (although I'm not an expert like you). Just one of man things that flag this one as a work of fiction. The way the narrative rolls, the way that, having just installed cameras she almost immediately notices the sister's car before she'd even parked and is able to telephone the babysitter before the sister gets to the door, the whole neat and happy ending. Oh, and the sister and BiL committed a massively serious crime in late March, but had already been charged, tried and sentenced by late April? In just four or five weeks? Not a chance.
