Now who is who?

Many has been asking me, if I can differentiate these twins, who is kor-kor and who is di-di. I would say they look quite the same and everyone including me, hubby, CL and maid has been playing “Guessing Game” all time at home.

By looking at just one, it will be hard to tell, but if we put 2 together, their difference is obvious as they are weight 400grams apart. I was told by the doctors in the hospital that they are from the same placenta (monozygote).

Funny similarities:

  • Same body and limbs pose when they sleep
  • same drinking time (this is what making us crazy!)

But I tell you, anyone who take care of them will easily tell by their different behaviour such as:

Differences:

  • Twin 1: Impatient (act like a pirahna when searching for mummy’s teat), wailed loudly
  • Twin 2: So slow (as if does not care to bother when mummy wanna feed him), has a weaker cry

No wonder twin mummies out there are telling me that most hubbies cannot easily identify their twins are they do not take care of them like mummies :)

Love this photo! They will surely look cute if I put on the babies equestrian clothing on them!

    I watched a documentary about twins the other day. It’s really quite fascinating.

  16. they are so cute… make me can’t wait to have a 3rd baby. Kylie has been asking me to make another baby until her class teacher came and asked if I am pregnant. So malu.

  17. They are absolutely adorable bundled up. Are the boys co-sleeping?

  18. waaaahhhh….. they look so cute, cute, cute. Can’t wait till when they are a bit older, sure hensem one.

    not sure abt you….my time, bcoz wanted to reduce d waking up time of myself & d babies, we separate the babies in diff room alternately…..
    cute fun guessing game hor….

  23. I love this picture very much. Probably the red background makes the photo stand out. Right is Twin 1 and left is Twin 2. Am I right?

  24. Congratulations!!

    They really look alike & soooo cute! and makes me think back of yesterday :)

    again, only mums know the best!

  25. gorgeous gorgeous!

  26. Love this photo! They look so cute spooned against each other like that…I think they are comforted having each other so near too :-)

    Do keep an eye out for No. 2 ya coz I read that twins fight for survival in the single placenta, which is why one will weigh less.

    No. 1 is considered the “fitter” one coz he fights for his food! No. 2 will need Mummy’s tender, loving care to ensure he gets enough…

    I can imagine you looking, touching and sniffing them periodically when they are sleeping! Sigh…I love babies! LOL

  27. Hi Chin Nee,

    I understand how u feel about having a difficult toddler. I gave birth
    in March this year and my 4 y.o daughter has suddenly became such an
    unmanageable toddler. It is okay during my pregnancy! My daughter suddengly
    refuse to go to school (which didn’t happen earlier), refuse to come home
    (only want to stay with po po) and cry the whole day.
    It was only after 1.5 months that things went back to normal. You just
    have to be patient…it is also difficult for QQ to suddenly accept the arrival
    of 2 new siblings. I guess QQ feeling are rather mixed up now…she loves
    her baby brothers and yet at the same time, may feel neglected. Just
    shower QQ with lots of love & be patient with her.
    Time will make things better.

    Pauline

  28. Congratulations:)
    You are a heroic mom, I remember time of being pregnant myself and the 9th month has been a torture. It was so difficult to carry the weight… I can’t even imagine how strong physically and emotionally you should be to carry twice the weight…

    Kids are so beautiful…
    All the best to your family!

  29. aiks..still no names yet. Twin 1 and Twin 2???
