A wee bit off topic to stuff I usually write about. But if a woman has twins, and one baby is born at one minute to midnight, and the other baby is born at one minute past midnight, are they still twins?

Yes. 'Twins' are defined as coming from the same pregnancy, not the same birthday.

Technically you can have twins born days apart, although this would be a kicker for the mother.

My mum is actually a twin, but it was just a silly thought I had today when I was at the hospital with my girlfriend for her scan. She says the same as you guys, which is true. But how rare would it be for twins not to share the same birthday?

It's probably more common than you think. Would be interesting to find the stats though.

I'm sure I read something in the paper or heard on the news once about twins born many years apart.
