Fraternal Paternal...Did we see the same article.I cant seem to find that reference
As tender as this story is, Marie is correct. Boy/girl twins are fraternal, and they do not share amniotic sacs. Only very rare sets of identical twins do, and it’s a high risk situation. I am sure they could get very close, as the image shows, and I do see how that would comfort the family and friends of these dear, precious babies.
They have to be fraternal if they are different sexes.
If it’s a boy and a girl then they’re not identical twins. If they were identical, they’d be the same sex.
The only other option is fraternal.
If this is true, then why isn’t there a pic of the sonogram?
Fraternal twins are made with two separate eggs and two separate sperm make two babies. Each embryo has their own placenta and amniotic sack. Identical twins are created when a zygote (one egg and one sperm) splits and they do share a placenta and amniotic sack. They can hold hands and interact much more than fraternal twins.
This is basic biology. Like *really* basic biology. Like farmyard biology.
There is no way that fraternal twins can ‘hold hands’ as this article claims.
