We are the parents of non identical twins(both are boys). They are 8 year old now.It is indeed scary when you see them fighting like dogs & cats but their love for eachother is also equally strong.request to all parents of twins Please do not get dishertened seeing their fight enjoy your parenthood . After all they are kids.

hi salima,its great knowing u have twins. are they boys or girls. i am father of twin girls who are going to complete 2 years on 21st september. i too feel different of being dad of twins as compared to single-kid-dads. well,i would say twins are double the fun with double the hardwork. seeing them quarrel and play with each other is really spectacular. tell ur experiences abou raising them.

fraternal twins share an average of 50% of their genes, as do all non-identical siblings (not 25%, as the article states). they have a 25% chance of sharing a gene from their father, and a 25% chance of sharing a gene from their mother, so that adds up to a 50% of their genes being shared.

i have fraternal twin boys who just turned 2 and a 3 month old. it is hard at first but you get used to it. i wouldn't have it any other way. i enjoy watching my twins grow and watch them become individuals.

Name: Allison

i had such a rough time with my twins at first. my oldest (by 2 mins) was in the nicu for 2 months and my smallest, for one. my advice to new twin parents is to be very careful with them once they're home cause you don't want to have them rehospiitalized with something like rsv.

it's a blessing from god to have twins. my first pregnancy was with twins. i found out when i was four months pregnant and almost lost it. god gives you the patience to deal. to me it's the same as having one baby you only have to do everything twice. it's wounderful, my son and daughter are nine years old now and i have a two and a half year old son. god bless.

hi i have a girl 6 yers old and then identical twins who are 5 years old. it was such a problem bringing them up my husband didnt want me to get preg 8 months after the firt delivery and i forced him and when i got preg it was twin. the were normal delivery but hospitilised for 43day.because they were premature( born at 30weeks) the second twin had immature lungs and both had respitory problems and a hole in the heart as well. but by god grace they are very well now. going to normalk schools and very much a normal chile and over weight boith of them. there birth weight was 1.5kgs now 5 years old and 25kgs each. i am thanking god for blessing me with themm and makingthem normal kids with no health problems. they grew up with difficulty but now the only complaint i have is that they are so naughty the treacher alwasy complain they are so talkative and figgity and fighting with eachoter in classs. parents of twins. i know it seems like enless problems with bringing up twins but the are so much enjoyment you woill learn to appreciate it in time i did!!!

i am pregnant with twins in my fourth month (15 weeks). i have a feeling that i'm going to be a single mom since the dad is never there. he says everything is going to be okay, but i'm seeing differently. i know i'm blessed, however i don't know how i'm going to raise two children on my own. i live with my mom and dad right now to save money, just got a new job (maternity leave with no pay). i don't know what to do. is there any help out there?

Name: rexann
Country: USA
i'm the mother of 5 wonderful kids. 4 boys 19, 14, 4 yr old fraternal twins (who w/be 5 on sept 21 aryan) and a beautiful (not spoiled at all lol) 2 yr old girl. i've got to say that having and raising the twins is by far the hardest thing i've ever done!!!! what one doesn't thing of getting into, the other one does. (and the both love making their sister a partner in crime) they love each other dearly, but fight like cats and dogs, one literally broke the other ones nose tonight!!! (its never boring here). but no matter how much work and how hard it is, they bring me, their siblings and their dad ten times more joy and love. it is worth it!!! i always tell them that they better take care of me when i get old (or older i should say, i'm 42) because of all the work they cause me now taking care of them!! lol good luck to everyone else out there, (your gonna need it!!)

i have identical twin girls, 6 mos., also 2,10,11,and 12 year olds. raising 6 kids is hard work, but the best advice i have is to only accept respect from them. the rest of their behaviors will follow. be consistant, but respect is key. it will make them so much more enjoyable to you and everyone else.
