*triplets*
There's very good documentation of us being identical. 2 days after conception one cell cluster. 7 days later that had split. Two amniotic sacs formed. 15 days after the amniotic sacs were first seen, one of them had two clusters in it.
So one of us is "less" identical than the other 2, given that he was in a different amniotic sac during pregnancy and differentiated days earlier. Parts (but not all) of his body are actually days older too. But interestingly, he's not the shortest or the one who got SIDS. He is about 1/4 inch shorter than me.
By height and amniotic sac, 1 and 2 are identical. By weight, 2 and 3 are identical. By height up to about 15 years old, 1 and 3 are identical. By "which thumb's on top when you clasp your hands", 1 and 3 are identical. 1 is the better athlete. 2 and 3 are roughly equal. 3's IQ is the highest (from when we took annual tests) but 1 got the highest ACT and 3 got the lowest.
We are mirror images of each other until about 3rd grade, when I can finally tell myself apart in pictures.
I'm identical. We are different based on environment: 2 liked eggs, he grew faster but less overall. 3 got SIDS- he was the smallest but overtook 2, but not 1.
