Anzing - three times twins.
Six girls.
And that within a radius of 250 meters.
That’s just happening in the community of Anzing.
Anzing
- First stop in
Lessingstrasse
with the Obermeier family.
Anna and Maria are already
big girls
.
They were born on March 24, 2017, so they will soon be celebrating their fourth birthday.
Even then, recalls her mother Petra, it was her husband Stephan, her sister Sandra Reim, meanwhile 2nd mayor, her daughter Lena (16) and brother-in-law Helmut, who offered her all possible
support
to help.
Anzing / Ebersberg: three twins, six girls - within a radius of 250 meters
This assistance in
everyday life
has been given every day, until today, reports the 43-year-old.
And she is happy about it.
Petra Obermeier has long been working part-time as an insurance saleswoman.
Currently, because of Corona in the
home office
.
However, because there are many phone calls to customers, working at home is not always a pleasure.
The
twins
could be making a lot of noise.

Normally the two
daughters
would be
in kindergarten like many others.
Anna and Maria started there on February 10th last year.
But then came the
lockdown
.
What else was there other than temporary care at home?
"Without the grandparents, everything, care and work, would be unthinkable at all"
The
twin girls
are still at home.
How good that there are also grandma and grandpa within reach.
Grandma Sissi and Grandpa Franz live in the same house.
On three days a week, says Petra Obermeier, Anna and Maria go down to their grandparents first thing in the morning.
Then we have breakfast.
And played whatever it takes.
"Without the
grandparents
, all of that, care and work, would be unthinkable," says the
twin mother
.
The services of grandma and grandpa, she adds, cannot be rated highly enough, especially in these challenging times.
Anzing: Everyday life with twins - a song of praise to the grandparents
The
neighbor
Caroline Konkol
also wants to join in this song of praise to the grandparents of this world
.
The 28-year-old and her 34-year-old friend Domenik Kubal live in the next house.
And have been the happy parents of Mila and Elina since November 30, 2020.
“Both look very similar, even though they are
dizygoti twins
,” says the proud mom, who works full-time in the registration office in Vaterstetten.
At the moment, of course, she has
to work
twice as hard
at
home
to look after the two girls;
at least.
Papa Domenik, an elevator technician, is still on parental leave.
From February this phase will be over.
How good it is that grandparents are close by, namely in Neufarn and Kirchseeon, adds Caroline Konkol.
Twins in Anzing: Corona also plays a role in the last few weeks before the birth
The grandma and grandpa services are well organized, by the way, because despite the need for their support, the applicable
Corona contact rules
should not be broken
with young people
.
Grandma Isolde as well as Grandma Uschi and Grandpa Olaf achieved enormous things under these conditions.
Did
Corona play
a role in the last few weeks before the
birth
?
“Yes,” says Caroline Konkol, during pregnancy she was sometimes quite
isolated
.
Especially since their children, which is not uncommon with twin births, were so-called
premature babies
.
They started with baby clothing size 46. It is so small that it is not easy to buy such things in the store, they say.
The two girls have now reached size 50.
Corona in Anzing: Contacts with other twin families over the garden fence
It is said that initial contacts with the Obermeiers have already been made.
"Later on, I can well imagine that we will exchange one or the other tip," says the young mother.
Markus and Alessandra Lupperger are not that far yet.
In
Tulpenweg
they are at home.
These are two stones throws away from Lessingstrasse.
Their first two children, Lena and Teresa, were born in Schwabing on January 14th.
Because the birth took place in the 31st week of pregnancy, they were initially still in the
intensive care unit
.
In the meantime, reports Father Markus with relief, the daughters have been transferred to the premature baby ward.
Everything went well.
Despite all the circumstances, a great job is being done in Schwabing, he says.
Corona in Anzing: Challenge with twin babies - nobody is allowed to visit the little ones
The mother Alessandra, 31, is now back at home in Anzing, the children will stay in the clinic for a few more weeks.
There they are, says Papa, currently in good hands.
Corona
played a role for him, who is self-employed in the stainless steel industry, in the last few weeks before the girls were born.
It
is still
a
challenge
that no one else is allowed to visit the little ones.
So far, they have only had the option of
taking photos of their daughters
and sending them to close friends and relatives.
The grandparents have not yet seen Lena and Teresa directly.
Unfortunately.
You will therefore have to be patient for a few more weeks, says Markus Lupperger.
Nevertheless, he would like to emphasize how important the two grandmas Maria and Claudia and Grandpa Gerhard from Ebersberg, Anzing and Parsdorf are to him in these times.
“Those were always the ones that gave you a shoulder to lean on,” he says.
More is almost impossible.
More and more seniors are desperate.
They try in vain to get an appointment for the corona vaccination.
Here is the example of a 93-year-old from Markt Schwaben.
And strangers attacked a senior couple in a supermarket parking lot in Parsdorf.
A banal argument had preceded it.
Now the police are looking.
