"...So we grew together
Like to a double cherry, seeming parted,
But yet an union in partition,
Two lovely berries moulded on one stem..."

The question of "zygosity" is certainly a popular one. One zygote (or egg) indicates identical twins and two indicates fraternal twins. The results of our placental pathology report are still inconclusive and only a DNA test can rule out fraternal identity.
I can see the differences between my daughters' faces, but their eyes and hair and body sizes are so similar, I certainly wonder. When I look back at photos from the past year, I often can not distinguish them from each other...
Here is an emotional story of two brothers who took their question to the scientific level. Plus, you can view photos of twin sets and share your vote based on how they look. The results may surprise you!
How would you vote on Charlotte and Bellina...?
I used to think it was obvious they were fraternal but as they've aged, it has become increasingly difficult to tell who is who!
ReplyDeleteJamie, so would you vote identical? You should check out the article above and vote on the twins there...
ReplyDeleteI definitely think it has become harder to tell who is who. When they were smaller I could see differences... now? Not so much!
ReplyDelete...They're so flippin' adorable!
I feel like they look alot alike!! I think it is hard ot tell! :) They are definitely adorable <3
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteWhat gorgeous babies!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, that's so kind of you to say hello.
DeleteOh lovelies! I am really bad at this. I have mild face blindness so everyone kind of looks alike to me! I am going with identical??
ReplyDeleteIt's certainly a toss up! We hope to test them somewhat soon...!
