Bari and Nellie,

I am a loyal listener and reader who recently became a grandpa (Papa) to my daughter's fraternal female twins, who turn 2 this August, and Baby Elliot, who was born on Shavuot last month.

I too was fairly set in my opinion about birth order, as we have 3 adult children, And I am the middle of 3 children. But the twin girls are so different.

One is a thinker, the other is a feeler.

One is more competitive, and the other passive.

So that blew out my birth order theory, but then again, in utero, the more completive one was a fighter, since she was first out and smaller. They had to closely monitor her to insure she was getting enough nutrition. So I guess the answer is, it depends.

Good luck, it will all be great!
