80% of singleton never know they had a twin - Vanishing Twin Syndrome

reply to post by bluemirage5


It is on wikipedia. Google the title of the thread...
You can also search for Althea Hayton for more information.
I tried with links but they don't work.

This possibly happened to my sister. My mom told me a story about when she was pregnant with my sister, and while I won't recount it in detail (it's rather graphic) I'll just say that she experienced an event that caused her to think she'd lost the baby. Turned out my mom and my sister were fine, but my mom wondered afterwards if there had been a twin that she lost.

Twins do run in my family. I have twin cousins, I have a cousin who has twin daughters, and my grandfather was a twin, so it might've happened to her, but we'll never know for sure now.

So basically, it's saying that something that happens before a foetus has the ability of memory can influence its life long after it is born?

Interesting thing to think about. I wonder what the mechanism behind this would be?

If true it would mean that our perception of development is off, which it 100% is to drive the abortion agenda. Although I would be surprised at this.

I've always foudn this to be an interesting phenomena. Apparently my husband may have had a twin he absorbed, because he was born with two placentas. The doctors at the time drew that conclusion from it anyway.

He does have three nipples, and I joke that one is a leftover from the brother he ate. But he hasn't ever felt any sense of missing something or spiritual void.

He does have one hell of an appetite tho.

These are recognized symptoms of being a womb twin survivor:

5. Likes looking at mirrors, or they are afraid of their own image
6. They are narcisists and tend to think for themselves, they are needy and they like to be helped, they depend from others
7. Less mature than actual age
8. Homosexuality more possible here
9. Fear of abandonment, letting go, death
10. They search for one relationship at a time, only, but they also tend to be absent for some time
11. They can have a very active and busy life, trying to live for two

FRATERNAL/MULTIPLE TWIN SURVIVORS: ( Orders triplets and quadruplets )

14. They get along with twins, easily, they find them cool, and they tend to have friendships with other womb twin survivors

I tried talking with my aunt about this subject...She is the only one that would converse with me about this...
She may have some information too.

Sadly I have no proof that once I was a twin, or even a multiple twin.

But my own feelings and istincts say I was.

Discovering that huge website has been like finding an explanation for many of my problems and attitudes...The solution is far from be found.

My mother would never discuss such a thing with me. After last year events I don't trust my parents as much as before.
I don' t really trust anyone anymore, but I had to speak to someone.

I had a twin that vanished. My Grandmother was a twin. No other twins have been born in our family that I'm aware of. As a child, I felt like there was supposed to be a twin or sibling with me. It wore off and I never think about it anymore. Twins kind of creep me out, actually.

As a twin, I cannot tell you the amount of times that I wished mine would just vanish.

Live and learn, I gave birth to a set of twin boys, as different as night and day. Thank God, that the two were not identical, because I wouldn't have ever wanted two of either one of them.

This doesn't surprise me at all.

I will soon get a blood exam to discover my blood group since I don't know it. If it comes out I am a " chimera " with two blood groups, my twin was fraternal.

I need some doctors...How common is actually this thing of the Vanishing Twin Syndrome?
I want to be said that this whole thing can be debunked.
I also would like to be said that the behavioral issues and psychological issues that survivor twins show are NOT linked to the loss of the twin in the womb...

Could this all be a fraud?
