FERTILITOTS (N. pl.) fur-‘til-lih-tots Babies—often twins and triplets—conceived in fertility labs through the advances of medical science. Usage: Blithe and Jared married at 36, got IVF after they had trouble producing a baby, and at 42, at last became the proud parents of fertilots—twins, a daughter and a son. Their Park Slope neighbors, Andy and Cara, did the same thing…and had triplets. Text © Liesl Schillinger 5/25/2009 Image ©Elizabeth Zechel, 10/24/2011
