[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love these stories. My grandmother is a twin and INSISTS she and her twin are identical because the doctor who delivered them said there was one embryonic sac and told her mother they were identical. In reality, these two barely look like siblings - one is blond/blue eyes and one brown eye/hair, different builds, etc. Kind of funny -- no one ever challenges them as they identify as identical but it never really mattered. [/quote] Aww, that’s cute. We knew our twin girls were fraternal from day one because they have different blood types. Later, it became clear that they have different hair and eye colors. I think it’s fascinating that there’s a third type of twins. It’s rare, but sometimes an egg splits before fertilization takes place, and then each of the resulting divided portions of the egg are fertilized with a different sperm, resulting in two embryos that are half identical.[/quote]
