Mother Of Twin Boys Had One Tattooed To Tell Them Apart
A 31-year-old Mom is coming under fire from some after having one of her twin boys tattooed in order to tell them apart. We aren’t talking about an arm tattoo that says “Mom” with a heart around it. Apparently one of the boys has a medical condition that requires a shot and one does not. Once when a grandmother was babysitting she gave the injection to the wrong child.
The mom’s doctor actually suggested that the mother have a medical tattoo on the baby that needs the extra medical care to prevent a mix up from happening again. It is simply a brown tattoo only 2mm wide on the child’s earlobe.
The twin’s mom explained in her post:
“Now they may be fraternal but they look identical. I’ll be honest my husband and I even mix them up sometimes. Everyone does. She immediately noticed her mistake called 911 and they were transferred to the hospital. By the time I got there, Adam had been given the reversal agent and they were both happily sipping on juice loving the attention. He was never in danger. It’s a very slow-acting medication that, at worst, would have given him diarrhea in a few days. Mother-in-law was beside herself. I tried to ease her worry but she refused to babysit so to daycare they went.”
