Someone told me that when one is pregnant with twins, a girl and boy, the girl is always born first. Is this true?

Maybe I’m ignorant, but apparently it seems that he would’ve been born first anyways, if he was the first one to be taken out

Their positions in the womb:

Baby A (boy), head down and ready for birthing position from crazy early, like 28 weeks, maybe? (Not there was much space left in there for him to move around by then lol)

Baby B (girl), transverse breech, laying straight across my heart (or might as well have been… she was hiiiiiigh up!).

It was a c-section birth, but their birth order was not affected at all. Even early on it was clear they were stacked virtually. I guess if their sacs were closer to side by side position a c-section might affect it more… or if for medical reasons the doctors have to get to the second baby first. I’ve heard of that happening.

I was once at a Bat-Mitzvah and the girl was saying that her brother might have been born before her but she had a Bat-Mitzvah a whole year before him.

Oooh, I’ll have to share this logic with my daughter!

We’ll be doing 3 years in a row with our 3 kids:

2028 - oldest’s Bar Mitzvah
2029 - youngest’s Bas Mitzvah
2030 - middle’s Bar Mitzvah

Gonna be (even more!) busy around here. IyH with only simchas.
