Twins Born Five Years Apart

Posted by 5Alex on January 8, 2012 at 1:04pm in Mr Bruns 360 Message Board

Reuben and Floren Blake were conceived from the same batch of embryos but were born five years apart after some embryos were frozen during fertility treatment. Floren was born last year on November 16, 2011, five years after her brother. Though it would be complicated to explain to people and crazy to think about, it would still be really cool!

Thats just weird, if I was a twin I wouldn't like to be born 5 years apart. We wouldn't even seem like twins just siblings.

sucks to be that momma. I think i speak for all guys when I say more than one is enough!!

This is interesting, but weird. I would rather have a twin the same age as me instead of being five years older or five years younger.

This is so neat and unique. I have never heard of something like this before. I wouldn't want a twin 5 years younger than me though. The parents don't seem to mind, so thats good.

its weird to think that you actually have twin but they are 5 years apart. but i would rather have them be the same age as me instead of 5 years younger

It's nice that there is a boy and a girl, that way they won't be exactly the same or anything.

That would be pretty crazy, but I think that would be pretty cool!
I wonder how someone would think of doing something like this.

Thats a new one I have never heard about that. They are twins but 5 years apart its really different. Thats crazy though to cause its weird thinking about having a twin thats 5 years younger than you.

Weird... but fascinating. The freezing thing i dont think should be done.... a little weird and stuff.
