One younger sister, nine years between us

Had a younger brother who died shortly after birth when I was 4 or 5.

You can't have a good wine without waiting for it. I am the youngest and best... I seem to be the only person who seems to agree with that remark

i am the youngest of three.

my brother and sister are 4 and 3 years older respectively.

... i was a "mistake", seriously. my mother had her fallopian tubes tied and then i was conceived.

i always thought there could be some profit made from suing for wrongful life but my parents wouldn't go for it. :chin:

I am an only child. I was also not supposed to happen. My mother was told she could not have children and managed to not get pregnant until she turned 36... she was married twice before she married my father, who she married many years before I showed up and ruined a perfectly good backpacking trip across Europe. Heh. Ain't I a stinker? The doctor she went to see about me told her she had a tumor the size of a grapefruit. My mom got pregnant two or three times after I was born and lost all of the pregnancies. The last one she knew was a boy, the others she lost too early to know... Sometimes I really wonder how it was I ever managed to live to adulthood.

I have two older half-siblings, both from my dad's previous marriage, and one younger sister. My half-brother is 29, my half-sister is 26, and my younger sister is nine.

Um... /Exactly/ the same as Descartes, actually, except that my half-sister is older than my half-brother, I think, and both are probably a bit over 30 by now. But, um, yeah.

My parents were first-borns of first-borns, and I have three younger brothers. I was my mother's smallest baby and grew to be the biggest of the four, but my youngest brother grew to be the tallest.
