Ok...
So here is the lowdown for peeps who either ask what its like being pregnant with twins or questions twins parents find VERY annoying....
Yes being pregnant with twins is very different from being pregnant with one baby. Morning sickness lasts TWICE as long. Your stomach is TWICE as heavy, a lot sooner than being pregnant with just one baby. Going up and down the stairs absolutely kills by the end of the day. The saddest thing of all is food. Nothing sounds good, nothing tastes good and its hard having to force yourself to eat EVERY MEAL EVERY DAY!
I am SOOO happy that they are both growing at the same rate. Apparently the babies are the best twins to have being that they are DCDA twins which means they each have their own sack and their own placentas. Yea!!
Also If someone says to you they are have Fraternal twins this means more than likely they are boy/girl. HOWEVER, there is a smaller percentage of twins born as a fraternal twin with the same sex. SO in short 2 eggs were fertilized at the same time, which resulted in Fraternal Twins
Identical Twins are SAME SEX babies and 1 egg is fertilized at the time of conception.
Also the question,
"Do twins run in your family?" They don't yet, but hopefully soon is really what I want to say! Because I feel this is really the most random occurrence ever!
