They shared a placenta, which was tested and confirmed that it was only 1 placenta. Only identicals share a placenta. Sometimes placentas may fuse together and appear to be one on an u/s but this was definitely 1. In addition, they were all in 1 sac with only had very thin membranes between them - which happens with identicals.<br /><br />Identicals aren't completely identical. My girls do have the same hair, same toes, same toenails and same fingernails.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09856102708963900512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-59100000704247016222012-11-21T04:41:14.909-05:002012-11-21T04:41:14.909-05:00Did you ever get them DNA tested to know that they...Did you ever get them DNA tested to know that they are identical? The older they get, the more different they look to me, enough that some pictures make me wonder if it isn't just family resemblance that makes them look similar.Rachelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-3546952888470219932012-10-30T21:25:28.282-04:002012-10-30T21:25:28.282-04:00We have identical twins who call eachother ugly al...We have identical twins who call eachother ugly all the time :pAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-44999670357740165362012-10-25T19:35:38.769-04:002012-10-25T19:35:38.769-04:00My twin girls are fraternal and look nothing alike...My twin girls are fraternal and look nothing alike, yet strangers and even some family members claim they look alike. The other night one of my girls told the other, "we aren't twins cause twins match and your hair isn't brown" and the little one started to cry, so we looked up pics of twins on the internet to see that some twins look alike and some don't. It's cute your girls think they don't look alike.Staceey L. https://www.blogger.com/profile/01079218952154246061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-66751864264607437722012-10-24T16:28:19.004-04:002012-10-24T16:28:19.004-04:00It's funny because after we finally met and sa...It's funny because after we finally met and saw the girls IRL, they really don't look a lot a like! In photos they look really, really identical but I feel like if you've seen them with one another, it's not THAT hard to figure out!<br />M&L say they don't look alike, but they acknowledge that they have the same hair, skin, eyes..."but we wear different shirts"Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11784902638721774823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-75112191820617040812012-10-24T01:24:11.880-04:002012-10-24T01:24:11.880-04:00I love these stories. :) Kids are so cute.

For some reason a lot of identical multiples (myself included) don't see other identicals as "identical" as the rest of the world does. To us we see similar features, but not much beyond what 'singleton' siblings would look like together. (different face shapes, eyes, posture, hair growth direction... basically all of the little things that mom's see to tell their multiples apart.<br /><br />Rach.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7707332630639933436.post-45352458365826973612012-10-23T08:53:26.852-04:002012-10-23T08:53:26.852-04:00This I find so interesting, how the girls view the...This I find so interesting, how the girls view themselves vs. how the world sees them. I love that they are individuals and it's so endearing that they are so shy that they won't correct other kids. Come on Girls!
