I feel like if I ever have twins, I'm going to stress about that more than is necessary. Like, documenting freckles or using a sharpie or something.
We painted their toe nails for the first month but even after about a week could tell them apart pretty easily. Their position in the womb and the birth means they can have quite different head shapes from one another. Also as another comment said, differences in personality are big and start surprisingly early.
That's pretty impressive. Having twins sounds awesome.
It's a lot of stress especially at first, you're thrown in the deep end, but there are really nice moments that I think just increase as they grow older and can play together and interact more.
