	Neonatal Doc: Septuplets
		The birth of two sets of septuplets within hours of each other last week reminded me of the time a couple of years ago when an internist colleague of mine asked me what I thought of the birth of another set of septuplets back then.
		The septuplets in Arizona were apparently born at about 30 weeks.
		In the case of the Septuplets born in Iowa, two of them have ongoing issues.

		Born after a pregnancy that lasted less than eight months, the septuplets are now said to be thriving.

	The Official Carlson Septuplets Page
		The birth of the McCaughey Septuplets, of course, was the big one: in anticipation of their birth, the people at CNN were looking for related stories.
		Since the Carlson Septuplets were created and on-line before any of these few real sets of septuplets were born, they are the only septuplets in their story.
		As I mentioned earlier, I modeled their story off of the Dionne Quints' story, and they were the only set of quintuplets (not counting the Diligentis born in the 1940s in Argentina, who were kept something of a secret by their parents to avoid the kind of attention the Dionnes recieved) until they were adults.

		Bobbi was speaking from the cramped two-bedroom house that has been headquarters for the septuplets, along with their sister, Mikayla, almost 3, since the babies began leaving the hospital in January.
		When the septuplets were born, a week before Thanksgiving when Bobbi was 30 1/2 weeks pregnant, reporters from around the world flocked to town and the McCaugheys were swamped with cards, gifts, and offers.

		"Septuplets" was of the teen drama ilk, following seven siblings and their lives at a family-owned beach hotel, while "The Grubbs" was a comedy about a teen boy who starts to strive for something more despite having aggressively under-achieving parents (Randy Quaid, Carol Kane).
		While "Septuplets" was always slated for a midseason launch, "The Grubbs" was supposed to premiere in November, before getting bumped by the return of "Andy Richter Controls the Universe."
		Berman says that the comedy failed "to live up to its creative potential, so we decided to cut the order back and move on." However, the seven episodes that have already been produced may be burned off over the summer.
