The Difference

On Feb. 6th, we learned we were expecting triplets.
On March 9th, we learned we were expecting fraternal triplets.
On March 16th, we learned we were now expecting identical triplets.

Our Dr explained the difference between the two sets, but one (like us) might not fully understand unless they are able to see a visual of the two sets in your mind.

I've joined a couple of multiple message boards on ideas, tips and strategies when dealing with multiples. On one of the discussion boards, someone posted a picture of their fraternal triplets.
Two weeks ago...
I was looking at the pictures then made a loud OHHHH! sign...John was nervous that something was wrong, then I showed it to him and he did the exact response. (another reason why we are perfect for each other)

So...here if your visual if you are curious, like we were. I'm wondering if your response will be like ours.


Fraternal Triplets


Our Identical Triplets at around 6 1/2 weeks


Does these pictures paint a better picture in your brain like ours?

The reason why identicals are all one gender is because the one egg spilt vs. three separate eggs
 in three separate sacks!
