Which sister belonged to which sister? In other words, which sister got mixed up at birth by that old nurse?

City Lily Tomlin belongs in the Country and
Country Bette Midler belongs in the City

You can see from the beginning that Country BM hates the country and longs for the city life (ie Doesnt belong there)
And that City Lily Tomlin is much more suited to Country life (ie wants to settle down and have babies, not a career)

You can also tell by the look of the women giving birth at the beginning... The woman from the city is a short obnoxious red-hed ie: Bette Midlers character, while the country woman is a tall, willowy brunette ie: Lily Tomlin.

Exactly, the actresses playing the mothers giving birth to the twins were a dead giveaway. The red-headed, well dressed woman was the mother of Bette Midler twins, while the other dark-haired, homely, small woman was the mother of the Lily Tomlin twins.

Lily Tomlin Twins- West Virginia (the countryside)
Bette Midler TWins- New York City (big city life)
