I was watching this fascinating Discovery Health's episode on Vanished Twins. During the introduction, the narrator said that one in 8 people had a vanished twin. One twin would disappear or in rare cases be developed inside the other fetus. There are different causes and ways one twin would vanish during development.
Then it hit me.
I remembered that my mother explained when early on in her pregnancy with me. The doctor told her that I was going to be twins. She was HUGE! I had sets of everything in reds and blues!
After watching this Discovery show, I had to wonder... I've always felt something was missing for a long time and haven't found the cause for it. Perhaps, I got a vanished twin?
