    We never really found out if our twins were fraternal of identicals...we only assumed that they were fraternal by the way that they look.
    My questions:

    Could identical twins look really different?

    The height and sizes of the girls obvious, Olivia has a full head of hair....while Lola only has a bit.

    Do you think they might look more alike once Lola grows hair...and eyebrows?

    Is it really worth testing them when we definitly believe they are frats.?

    You can look at pictures on my site:

    By the pictures I would say fraternal. Do you know if they have the same blood type? If they are different than they are frat.

    Beautiful little girls!! I would agree that they look fraternal to me. They definetely look alike but not exactly.

    I'm guessing fraternal, but it's hard to be sure. They're just adorable. Congratulations.

    I have friends who are id boys and they look as dissimilar as your twins.
    Though I'm not sure how similar they looked when they were babies.

    what was the go with the placenta?

    they are adorable!! my guess would also be frat. . My frat. girls also look a lot alike but have little differences - Addison has more hair and Ava has bigger eyes! people ask me if they are identical all the time but mine are fraternal.

    I have ID - I know this because they were monoamniotic twins - They look alittle different - Paige is about 3 lbs bigger and her face his rounder while Sami is smaller and has a longer face.

    ID do not have to look eactly alike -

    actually, i wouldn;'t be surprised if they were ID; LOTS of facial similarities. But - what do i know, Those pics are GORGEOUS - i'm so envious, particularly of the baby ones; the b&w of you and (presumably) DH holding naked babies on your hands....i really wanted that shot as well. Who did your pics and how did you find them>

    and those beautiful big sisters! what a lovely family you have - lucky you! ANd your lucky DH, living w/ a harem!
