Congrats! I've been playing long enough between TS3 and 4 that I have no idea what the stats of my twins and triplets are anymore. Though the last four included two sets of fraternal twins and 2 sets of identical triplets. I do remember one family managing to have triplet girls in successive generations.
The first birth in my Sims 4 game was the Goth family, and it was twin girls. Well, they're only toddlers now, so I'm not 100% they're identical, but so far they look identical. I still need to play them to childhood. I thought I had identical twins boys in The Sims 2 - at the toddler stage they looked identical, but their differences started to show as children. I may have some pictures somewhere of them, too (this was back in like 2007/2008... lol - interestingly enough, they are the brothers of my avatar!)
When a sims ages up from a baby, I like to use cas.fulleditmode and see what they look like as a teenager. That's how I noticed they are identical. I do that because I will then choose which sibling I will continue with and their story line.

It'll be awhile until I know if they're identical or fraternal, though, I'm not sure how easy it'll be to tell?
Not sure, honestly. I have a whole lot of twins in my game, some of whom are townies but most have at least some connection to my main Sims, and well, sometimes you immediately see the differences, but sometimes they also look really, really similar as toddlers or even as children and you only know for sure when they age up to teen. I currently have a set of twins who aged up to child and I'm still not sure whether they're identical or not... :lol: They really look very similar, but I used MCCC to cheat moments before my Sim gave birth (don't normally do that, but I really, really wanted a girl lol), so I changed it from 2 boys to one boy, one girl. The boy and girl look sooo alike that I'm wondering if they're identical - which I know is not normally possible, but since I used MCCC to cheat I'm wondering if they could be? Anyone know something about this? I'm very, very bad at discerning differences between my Sims' toddlers or even children for some reason lol. I always think they look alike and can never tell what they'll look like later on. Could always use cas.fulleditmode but I don't want to do that as I like the anticipation & surprise. They do look different to me in-game, but when I compare them in CAS, their features look very similar. I haven't had identical twins yet, so not much to compare to. Here's my twins as toddlers:
They do actually have a different skintone, so that's probably a good indicator that they're not actually identical. That and of course their gender... but they were supposed to be two boys hehe. I wonder if they were initially supposed to be identical. :sweat_smile:
They're adorable! They'd be pretty indistinguishable if they were the same gender.
Lately it seems like my game has either singles or triplets. I'm not sure what's going on there. I cheated one pregnancy down from three to two because I just. could. not. do another set of triplets.
