confused!

was watching maury the other day (sorry,I have nothing better to do. lol) and a woman went on to get paternity tests on her twins.. it turned out that the twins had different dads:eek:.... Didnt even realise that was possible! lol

there were different coloured twins a few years back, but they had the same dad

Re: confused!

This is only possible if they are non identical twins - developed from 2 separate eggs.
Identical twins are from one egg which has divided.
My mother was a non identical twin and there is a higher risk of daughters of such a twin, having them herself.
I thought about taking insurance against it but didn't bother - only had the ONE (thankfully)

PS welcome back :D

Re: confused!

Yep, thats possible, means (obviously) the 2 eggs were fertilised at different times by 2 different men, ive seen this on telly before but being a "twin mummy" I know all about the different things that can happen, spent months studying it (had nothing better to do when he went out to "work" - or so he told me) There would have been a slight difference between the age of the twins although they were "born" at the same time

That seems like a very woolly story. I think there's a mistake in it somewhere. Maybe there's a clearer version of it in another paper.

Yep, not encouraging to prospective employers when you are of no fixed abode. Wales? Crikey, you couldn't do that on a daily basis :D

This is possible, if the babies are not sharing the same placenta etc then it is possible to deliver one baby week even months before the other, although can be very risky.
