Pregnant Jennifer Garner and not pregnant Ben Affleck have returned once more to the hospital. The couple visited Cedars-Sinai Medical Center last week on New Year's Eve which started the rumor-mill um, rumoring. Or is that milling?

The happy couple have not released any information regarding Violet's pending sibling.

What do you think? Is it baby time?

Never Doubt A Mother's Intuition - Kimberly Quaid Talks About Her Twins' Near Tragedy

Sassy Smith — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 15:38:00 GMT

Dennis and Kimberly Quaid had twins born (by surrogate - using Kimberly's eggs and Dennis' sperm) on November 22. At the age of 12 days, the twins were given an accidental overdose - not once but twice, that the Quaids know about - of the blood-thinning drug Heparin. Instead of receiving a 10 unit dosage, the infants were given 10,000 units. This massive overdose was almost fatal to the babies. Kimberly knew something was wrong at 9pm - she even wrote it on a piece of paper. She had a mother's premonition and said, "I just had this horrible feeling come over me, and I felt like the babies were passing. I just had this feeling of dread."

The Quaids speak out on 60 Minutes - video after the jump

The couple then called the hospital (Cedars-Sinai Medical Center) and were told that the twins, Zoe Grace and Thomas Boone, were fine, even though the nurses knew that the infants were in danger around that time. It wasn't until the next morning that Dennis and Kimberly learned what had happened to their newborns. Hospital staff - a nurse, their pediatrician and a rep from risk management - met them at the hospital room.

I never doubt a mother's gut instinct. Even new moms have it. It's like it's always been there but the minute you have your baby - whether biologically or otherwise, it's awakened, it becomes part of you. You just know when something's wrong with your child.

The twins are now 4-months old and at home with their parents and thus far, have passed all medical tests. Dennis says that he's "grateful for every day now and doesn't take a day for granted. If they hadn't made it, there never would have been another happy day."

Dennis Quaid's Twins Reported in Stable Condition

It would appear that Dennis Quaid's newborn twins Zoe Grace and Thomas Boone are now in stable condition following the accidental overdose of the blood-thinning drug Heparin. The staff at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center mistakenly gave the babies 10,000 units instead of the proper dosage of 10 units. That, in a nutshell, is fucked up.

According to TMZ, the hospital's Chief Medical Officer, Michael L. Langberg, MD, apologized and issued a statement this evening.

As we stated before, we wish the Quaid family the best.
