Identical Twins - Any In Your Family?

I’m actually a twin. Younger. My sister is 1 hour and 5mins older than me. She was born naturally while they had to rush my mother in for a C-section for me because I turned as soon as my sister was out lol, hence the one hour difference. We are not identical. We don’t even lookalike and we have completely different personalities, but we are connected. I often feel her feelings and she mine. Same with pain. It’s weird but we’ve embraced it.

No twins in my family but I always wanted to have twins.

There are some on my mothers side of the family, and my cousin is married to an identical triplet. It could be when their childen start having children, they could be multiples. From what I understand it skips a generation,

I have twin kids a daughter and a son. They both don't have any similarities between them. Even if they don't look similar in appearance.

To me identical twins are very cute and the only true twins. No twins in our families anywhere.

I know an identical twins who were my high school classmates. They looked very much alike. Since I was not their close friends, I didn't really know if their personalities were similar too.

My niece has two girls but they are not identical. They are identical when it comes to their studies - they both get ranks.

No, there are no twins in my family. I am glad I didn't have twins, one baby at a time was enough for me. No, I am not a twin.

I always thought that twins were so rare until our son met his wife. They run in her family. They have fraternal twins, but they went thru a stage where they looked so much alike. And still, if one were not a bit longer then the other I would have a hard time telling them apart. They communicate with each other, even as babies in the coolest way. One babbles the other reaches out to hold her hand and to kick her leg. I can just imagine how that will not be appreciated in a few more years.

My brother and sister were twins and I have a niece (by marriage) who had identical twins. It's easier to tell them apart now they're grown up but it was very difficult when they were young.

No, I'm not a twin and twins do not run in my family. My ex's family, his maternal grandmother was a twin. They weren't identical twins/ they were fraternal twins.

my school mate in primary school had twin brothers and until high school, they wore the same clothes so it was hard to distinguish them apart though, i thought that one was a little bit chubbier than other. i think they have different personalities but not that different, not sure. sorry for your uncle. in my extended family, from my father side, there are twins too and they differ too.

Twin according to scientists isn't actually identical. Only some of their physical attributes.

i see twin in my neighborhood. but not in my family.

We have had twins in the family. My cousin has twins but they don't look identical. I had a colleague who had a twin sister and they are so identical that when I bump into them outside the office I am not sure which sister I am meeting.

No twins in our family, as far as I'm aware. And no, I never wanted twins.

I have seen identical twins when I was a teacher. One of them was brighter than the other. I didn't want to have twins because it's very difficult to manage and bring them up.

No, not a twin. No twins in my family. I know one twin sister, pair. Yes, you can tell them apart. They had very different personalities. One twin became my friend, but her twin sister and I, were just acquainted. You know, I wouldn't mind being a part of a twin.

I am not a twin but my mother was. She had a fraternal twin brother. I have cousins who are identical twins, but identical twins don't run in families. It's the fraternal ones that do. And it skips a generation, and the older a woman is and the more pregnancies she has had, the more likely she is to have twins. My grandmother had twins...my mom and her brother. My mom and brother did NOT have twins...but guess what: I did! I had twin girls who are fraternal and look and act NOTHING alike. One has brown hair and green eyes. The other has red hair and brown eyes. I always wanted twins but never thought I would be blessed with them. I was 34 when I had them, and they were my 3rd pregnancy! :0)

I had cousins who were twins, brother and sister but that's it
