What Are Irish Twins?
"Irish Twins" is a term used to describe siblings born less than 12 months apart. Although they are not actual twins, their close age often makes them appear and behave similarly in developmental stages.
The term originated in the 19th century and was once used pejoratively, but today it is commonly a lighthearted way to describe closely spaced siblings. Families often notice that Irish Twins share many activities and milestones almost simultaneously.
