Being a second twin, vaginal delivery, with an IQ of well over 180, and >having delivered literally hundreds of second twins vaginally, I know of no >second twins with CP. Jan I just knew there'd be one! How reliable are IQ measurements at this end of the scale! Seem to recall (from when I passed my MENSA test) that rather less than 1% of the poipulation had an IQ of 150. Assuming a normal distribution "well over 180" must be several standard deviations from the mean. Say ~ 0.00001% ?

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
