No Twin Tricks Here
Most twins enjoy dressing similarly and confusing their parents. Lucy and Maria were put in the same school and class, but they could easily be told apart. Therefore, the girls didn’t get up to any of the usual twin shenanigans, such as swapping homework or names to play tricks on their teacher. Though they were happy that they could identify as individuals, they couldn’t enjoy normal twin perks. These two girls had distinctively different looks, but they’d soon learn just how different they were.
What Are Conjoined Twins?
There are a variety of ‘twins’ out there, but most people are more familiar with twins that look identical or have the same features but look different (or are different sexes). However, conjoined twins are in a realm all their own. When this happens, there are two babies (either identical or fraternal) who were born while still connected to each other physically. It occurs when the embryo only partially separates. Usually, conjoined twins are connected at the pelvis, chest, or abdomen.
