Me and my twin were reunited when we were 5 years old. It was the best thing in the world and if anyone thinks having a twin is a bad thing they are totally wrong. If you didn't see your twin for 5 years, you would think differently.

I'm really pleased you feel that way Sophie!!
I just have one question tho, why were you separated? I mean, what happened? Don't worry if it's too personal though.

Hi everyone,

I was separated from Isabella for almost the first month of our life because we were in NICU as we were slightly premature and had some medical problems - Isabella had jaundice and I had RDS, or respiritory distress syndrome. I was on CPAP for 5 days and extra oxygen for three weeks until I was allowed to go home (Isabella had been discharged after four days of phototherapy). Our Mom said that she didn't feel complete until she had both her babies home, and that's true for us too. We made up for lost time by becoming closer than ever during the first few years of our life, and it's lasted

Love Madison x

Hey i'm Holly
WE were the same way we were born 2 months premature and we had respritory distress too! an i had jaundice and we both had oxygen. except my twin hope had to get rushed to mcg hospital cause her embilical chord was falling apart and was there for two months and i had to be put in the second story critical baby nusery for about a week then i went home. HOPE was named hope cause we all hoped she lived! She was only 2pounds 4 ounces. I was 5pounds 2 ounces hope would of been in the 5lb range but her embilical chord got messed up. We were the only twins born in our hospital at the time so we had all the nurses in the operating room!
