1. Identical twins do not have identical fingerprints.

Although twins share the same DNA, they do not share the same fingerprints. Fingerprints form between the sixth and thirteenth week of pregnancy. By that time, the twins have already separated and unique ridges are being created on their fingers.

2. Massachusetts has the highest rate of twins in the country.

4.5 out of every 100 live births in Massachusetts are twins, the highest rate in the country.

3. Twins interact with each other in the womb.

Research found that at 14 weeks, twins were seen reaching for each other. At 18 weeks, they touched each other more than they touched themselves.

4. Some twins make up their own language.

Twins use each other to communicate and develop speech patterns in the absence of an adult. It’s their way of practicing, because they’re around each other a lot of the time. Sadly this secret language disappears when they learn a real language.

5. Twins can have different dads.

Multiple fathers can happen if a woman releases two eggs instead of one, and has sex with two different men during a five day period. Sperm can live in the reproductive tract for that long, thus resulting in the possibility of twins having two fathers.

#justkidding# wink

I have read it somewhere, I stumbled on one site that is on Medical Wonders, that's where I saw it. That's actually how twins happen, so I didn't find it so surprising that different fathers could be responsible.

I just keep wondering - would they be identical...if they are not...would they look like the different fathers? #confused#
