Can two babies in the stomach at same time not be twins?

That's a great question! While it's very common for two babies in the womb to be twins, it's not the only possibility.

Here's why:

* Twins: These are the most common scenario for two babies in the womb. Twins can be either identical (formed from one fertilized egg splitting) or fraternal (formed from two separate eggs fertilized by two separate sperm).

* Triplets, Quadruplets, etc.: While less common, it's possible to have more than two babies in the womb at the same time. These multiple pregnancies can also be formed from a single fertilized egg splitting multiple times (identical) or from multiple fertilized eggs (fraternal).

So, the answer to your question is yes! Two babies in the womb at the same time don't *have* to be twins. It's also possible to have triplets, quadruplets, or even larger multiples.
