Has anyone had DI DI twins that are identical?

Question

My doctor keeps telling me that there is a chance my twins can still be identical has anyone had twins that were DI DI that came out identical??  I'd love to know!!!

Answer

Mine are DI DI and we are thinking they are identical. Haven't gotten the blood test yet to know for sure but my high risk dr said that based on his close my placentas were to each other it looked like one egg split.

Answer

Yep my friend had Didi twin girls that were actually identical at birth. When you have didi twins of the same sex they have like 30% of being identical, meaning the egg just split very early on making them 2 seperate sacs and placentas but identicals. :)

Answer

Fun fact: on very rare occasions you can have "identical" twins that are boy/girl. This happens when a male zygote with an extra X-chromosome (xxy) splits. Anything is possible.

Answer

My doctor has given me the same information about my di/di boys. A blood test will confirm if they are identical or fraternal bc they don't know if the eggs split early on.

Answer

My di di girls looked identical - everyone thought they were including our doctors. We did a blood test at day 3 and found out they had different blood types so they ended up no being.

Answer

My doctor said the same thing. It is possible I have cousins that are fratunal but they look exactly alike. It depends if the egg split early? Or if you ovulated twice. Something like that. But yes same sex babies that are di/di you will only know once they are born.

Answer

I think it's possible, just get a zygosity test done when there born. That's the only true way to know. I belong to another online group for twins and believe or not some of the di/di  twins there are identical. Proven with bloowork.

Answer

I don't know anyone, but I'm having Di Di twins. My doctor says there's 30% chance they're identical i think. I'm hoping for fraternal (boy& girl) but will be happy either way.

Answer

No.. Di di is always fraternal..
