There's a Bizarre Age Twist for These Twins Born During Daylight Saving Time

From Good Housekeeping

Daylight Saving Time can be a curse and a blessing, on the one hand who doesn't appreciate an extra hour of sleep, but on the other hand things can get confusing … and confusing it got for Emily and Seth Peterson of West Barnstable, MA who welcomed twin boys Samuel and Ronan after one in the morning on November 6th.

Samuel was born at 1:39 a.m. while Ronan was born when the clock struck 1:10 a.m. for the second time (after the clocks turned back), making him officially older. We know this is a bit confusing - hopefully this Facebook post from Cape Cod Healthcare can help explain!

As you can see, Ronan is older even though he came second - quite the brain teaser. Apparently it was the first time nurse, Deb Totten, had seen anything like this in 40 years working as a nurse! We foresee fighting in these boys future over who is actually older (since we're not even sure ourselves.)
