Guest guest Posted January 13, 2001 Report Share Posted January 13, 2001 Hi, Yeah, I do wonder if they are mirror image twins. We look for other indications of it, but it's a little hard when his face is so affected by asymmetry and it's too soon for handness. the molars came in opposite sides first (don't remember the other teeth), so that's an indication also. I think they lift opposite eyebrows but again, the asy could affect that. always wondering on something!!!! : ) diane & Kendra wrote: didn't I hear something about "mirrored" identical twins at some point???

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2001 Report Share Posted January 13, 2001 Hi all, I am an identical " mirror " twin. My twin sister is a lefty and I am a righty. Our " whorls " are opposite too.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2001 Report Share Posted January 13, 2001 Diane: My guys have the same " whorl " pattern (they are identical also). You may have mirror image twins - have you noticed if any other characteristics are opposite? I believe mirror image twins have to be identical.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2001 Report Share Posted January 15, 2001 Diane, I do not have twins, but I am an identical twin. My twin and I have been told that we are " mirror image " twins. I was left-handed, she was right-handed. My hair naturally parts on one side, hers on the other. I don't know anything about why this is, but so far it has proven to be true.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2001 Report Share Posted January 15, 2001 Wow! thanks.. I was under the impression mirror image twins are pretty rare.
