Note that by âlong distance relationships,â I refer to the ones where there is no current possibility or any possibility in the near future that the two people involved will be living in the same area.

As mentioned above, there's no guarantee that your twins will arrive early. However, the possibility is higher than with a singleton birth. Some hospitals allow expectant parents to take a tour of the NICU, to get some idea of what may be waiting for them; ask if that's an option.
1. Dichorionic/Diamniotic (di/di) twins. Di/di twins are the most common type of twins and the lowest risk. Di/di twins can be identical if the egg split very early, but fraternal twins are always di/di. In di/di twins, each twin has their own placenta and their own amniotic sac. Di/di twin pregnancies have increased risks over singleton pregnancies, but this is the best case scenario in twin world. The biggest worries tend to be going into preterm labor and making sure both babies are growing adequately.
