"Can you get pregnant while already being pregnant
at any time during the pregnancy?"

Very rarely, but it can occur. One of my friends was conceived two weeks after his sister was conceived, and for years everyone thought that they were fraternal twins. Turns out they're just a brother and sister that shared the womb at the same time.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't they still technically be fraternal twins? Identical twins come from one egg and fraternal come from two. I know they were conceived two weeks apart, but I would still consider them twins.

I thought that to be fraternal twins, the eggs had to be released simultaneously, but I could definitely be wrong!

How can they tell he was conceived two weeks later and not at the same time? That's some pretty damned hefty genetic testing.

They participated in a lot of genetic studies at some big-name medical centers. If they hadn't, they never would've known! :)

But if they had the same mother and father, how would the scientists know the difference? I don't get that...

Maybe they didn't have the same father.

gestational age, the measurements of the babies in utero.
Are ways to tell the babies age.
