I think she looks great, and it’s obvious that the wind is blowing her shirt in the first picture. If you look at it, there are no wrinkles in the shirt, it’s pulled taut by the wind. When you look at the second photo, you can see that her shirt is hanging and definitely not pulled taut like in the first.

Secondly, you can determine by CVS or Amniocentesis if the twins are fraternal. Since identical twins have identical chromosomes, then if the CVS or amnio show two different sets of chromosomes, then they are fraternal twins.

She looks great! But i’m not too fond of that top.

CelebBabyLover – DUH how did I miss that! Sorry that was a oversight on my part, now that I went back and actually READ the link it does say TV Stars’ Wonder Twins explaining why Brad and Angie aren’t on it. I was also thinking how come Dennis Quaid’s twins aren’t on it either …… but now I understand lol.
But that is such a good picture of Rebecca Romijn.

Jerry O’Connell was on the Kevin and Bean Radio show here in LA on Tuesday morning and he was talking about his comment/apology and the fact that their babies are estimated to be about the size of 1 baby In-utero so it is VERY possible she really is already that big at 5 months or so. Pretty interesting stuff huh? So exciting for them. She is beautiful! I believe they are going to have big kids as both Rebecca and Jerry are tall.

Bancie1031- I thought that was weird too…Until I took a closer look at the link. Part of the link reads “TVtwins”, which makes me think that the list is just of TV show actors and actresses who have had twins (such as Marcia Cross and Patrick Dempsey).

If that’s the case, being Angie and Brad are movie stars rather than TV stars, it makes sense that they aren’t on the list!

As for telling if twins are identical or fraternal…I always thought that, too! I’m guessing that Rebecca and Jerry don’t really know for sure. They are either mis-informed (i.e. think that twins with seperate sacks and placentas= fraternals) or are simply guessing.

CelebBabyLover – I’m not sure but I dont’ believe that even with Amnio (sp??) that they can tell if they babies are faternal or identical. I might be wrong but I thought that they had to wait until the babies were born then swab their cheeks …. like you said check the DNA.

She made it to the list of Celebrities that have twins ….. here is the link

what’s weird is Brad and Angie didn’t make the list

I think Rebecca looks incredible..I had twins in early December with a mid Jan due date so she will probably deliver no later than 37 weeks which is term for twins. Multiples pregnancies are an incredible experience, four kicks, four punches, and of course two heartbeats. Congrats to Jerry and Rebecca, they will truly enjoy their double blessings!!

She looks so radiant. Someone mentioned on here they didn’t understand why she is carrying so low. I am 5′ 10″ and I carried all 3 of my kids low.

Jen- Good point! And speaking of Angie, everyone was convinced she was going to have Knox and Viv in June (not that the rumors about her delivering “Isla” and “Amelie” in late May helped matters any!). People also kept saying “No way she has until August!” (her costar Dustin Hoffman said her due date was August 19).

However, Knox and Viv were not born until July 12. Given that they’re twins, and the fact that Angie said she knew they’d be premature, the August due date (at least the month in general if not the exact date) more than likely WAS correct.

Therefore, Rebecca more than likely IS due in January, but will deliver in December.

All of that said…Does anyone know how it’s possible for them to know that the twins are fraternal? I thought it was impossible to tell the twin type of same-gender twins (obviously if it’s a boy-girl combo, you know they’re fraternal!) until delivery (at which time a DNA test can be performed)? A common myth is that, if the twins have seperate sacks and seperete placentas, they are fraternal, but identicals can also have seperate sacks and placentas.

Given Rebecca’s age, could it be possible that she had an amnio or CVS done and found out the twin type from that?
