TWINS

Right now, I am ALL ABOUT learning about twin pregnancies.... :)

Here is the first note from the *learn something new every day* file:

By around the 36th week of twin pregnancy the positions of twins in the womb will not likely change. Generally, because of the sheer lack of space to move around. Here is a simple visual guide to some of the different positions twins may take on during the course of pregnancy. This is an easy way to familiarize yourself with some of terms used to describe different positions. (www.twin-pregnancy-and-beyond.com)











Fun stuff!!! Stay tuned! :)

Hospitals

Good for the Quaids...

Dennis Quaid Settles With Cedars Over Twins' O.D.

Los Angeles (E! Online)
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center is looking to clear up any bad blood with Dennis Quaid. According to court documents obtained by E! News, Quaid and his wife Kimberly have accepted a settlement of $750,000 from the Los Angeles hospital, which last year took responsibility for giving the babies a life-threatening overdose of blood thinners.

Zoe Grace and Thomas Boone Quaid, now both 1, were being treated at Cedars for staph infections in November 2007 when an employee accidentally administered dosages of heparin (commonly used to flush out I.V.s) that were 1,000-times the recommended amounts for newborns, 10,000 units per millileter apiece instead of the standard 10.

Cedars was fined $25,000 earlier this year by the California Department of Public Health for "multiple failures by the facility to adhere to established policies and procedures for safe medication use."

Though they never sued Cedars, the Quaids, blaming poorly labeled bottles, sued heparin manufacturer Baxter Healthcare Corporation for negligence last December.

Quaid also testified before Congress in May against a proposed statute that would make it more difficult for patients to take pharmaceutical companies to court.

Once a judge signs off on the Quaids' deal with Cedars, the couple will no longer be able to pursue litigation against the hospital as part of a good-faith stipulation in the settlement, although they could sue on their children's behalf for future consequences of the accident.

The Cedars settlement does not affect the Quaids' lawsuit against Baxter.
