twin bond

Shared womb closeness

Twin bond refers to the special emotional connection believed to exist between twins, especially identical twins.

The bond implies unusual closeness, intuitive understanding, or even quasi-telepathic awareness of each other's feelings and experiences: The twin bond between them was so strong she knew something was wrong before the phone rang.

Though scientifically unproven in its stronger claims, the concept reflects the unique relationship formed by sharing a womb and often an upbringing.
