My best friend has a boy/girl pair that are 15 months. They helped me do pretty well on this ;)

I didnt get lots right, but I have b/b twins I'm short I gained only 40 pounds and still gave birth to boys with very healthy weights. The weight gain is also based on maternal weight going into the pregnancy. So in my world, those are the right answers.

that quiz was pretty easy considering all the pregnancy shows I watch plus the fact that my dad & his younger sister Barbara are fraternal twins

wait a minute.... > More than half of twins are born before 37 weeks; plan your maternity leave accordingly so you don’t leave your employer in the lurch. --- from your own source and when I put that I got it wrong! http://www.fitpregnancy.com/yourpregnancy/fertility_conception/Two-In-The-Oven-100370204.html

I think boy/girl twins would be lovely one of each all at the same time =)
