Twins are fraternal if they are produced by 2 sperms and 2 different egg cells and they have a different yolk sacs and placenta . Identical twins share the same yolk sac, placenta, and amniotic membrane(you could prob just see one bag if its identical).


Btw, congratulations on your pregnancy hun and it must be really exciting to carry twins :)
good luck and hope you have a smooth pregnancy throughout.

That is soooooooo exciting!!! My brother and his wife had twins. Boy and a girl, well they are 24 years old now. But I still remember the excitment of 2 babies!!!!

I was watching this thing on tv last night about a momo pregnancy.Have you ever heard of it?

I dont know if I am really at the point where I am excited I am more at the point of how the hell am I gonna do it lol

Where their is a will, their is a way and with some exra help. I always thought if you wanted to have two that that would be the best way to go lol, only kidding.
Congratulations to you and yours!

i seen it with the little boy right that was 84 punds at age 2

I have to disagree with something. Identical twins do not have to share a sack or placentas. It all depends on when they split. I have 9 month old identical twin girls, and they shared nothing. If your twins don't share anything, then unless they are boy/girl, then you will have to wait until they are born to determine whether they are fraternal or identical. If they share anything at all, then they are definitely identical. We had to do a dna test to determine whether mine were identical or fraternal. Good luck! Carrying twins is totally amazing. Before it's over, you'll be pretty miserable, but it'll all be worth it. Don't worry about how you are going to do it, because you just do. It'll all work out. Congratulations!

Congradulations chase! How far along are you?

lol,no.It;s another type of twin pregnancy.There cords got knotted twice and they almost died! But they said that momo pregnancies are like 1 in a million

Thanks everyone.............I am 10 weeks along

The hospital should be able to tell from you 16 week scan if they are identical or not it makes no difference what they do or do not share it is all decided by if they came from one egg or two
