    Had to check it wasnt WWN

    http://www.breakingnews.ie/ireland/world-record-as-twins-born-87-days-apart-in-waterford-592776.html
    Record-breaking twins Amy and Katie Jones have been born an -incredible born 87 days apart.

    Mother Maria Jones-Elliott went into labour four months early, giving birth to Amy – but Katie did not arrive until three months later. Their incredible births will now -become a Guinness World Record for the “longest interval between the birth of twins”. The previous record was 84 days.

    After a gruelling two days of labour at Waterford Regional Hospital in Ireland, Amy was born at exactly 24 weeks – almost four months before her due date of September 21 last year.

    great story, best of luck to the parents and kids. those midwives in WRH do a great job, if only WRH got the funding it deserves.

    Some midwives do, some don't like in any job. I could name one or two who have a reputation for being downright horrible.
