identicals?

baby2121

Anyone have them? Mine looked totally different at birth and STILL do at 8 weeks.. Its not just me, even strangers agree.. BUT the placenta was tested and they are indeed identical.. Is it possible to not look "identical"?

pea-kay

lots of moms of identicals think their kids look nothing alike, but to strangers they look exactly alike.

(fwiw, i think my boys looked exactly alike until recently.)

Ditto Pea-kay. I don't think mine look alike but almost everyone else does.

Same here.  I think they look similar, but not exactly the same...The babysitter (who sees them everyday) still can't tell them apart! haha.

I know they look pretty similar in my sig pic, but in general, there are enough differences that most people can tell them apart.  They are definitely identical, but there are still differences in how they carry their weight, the shapes of their heads, etc.

Me and my twin sister are identical but we are differences (mostly noticeable to family). Like one is our eye shape is slightly different. Also we are mirror twins so one thing is that we have opposite moles on our face, lol.

Yes.  I don't think mine look alike at all.

Mine look nothing alike, but part of that is the weight difference.

I've always thought that was so neat.  There was a mom on a Baby Story that was a Mirror twin and I thought it was neat that she said that their hair parts are the same but opposite, one was right handed and the other left. etc.
