IN REPLY TO: What are my odds of having twins?
AUTHOR: Jillarie
twins usually skip a generation.. which means in order for you to have twins... your mom or dad would have to be a twin.. skipping you(skipped generation) and making your offspring twins.. since your dad isn't a twin.. it will most likely come from your mother.. unless your fathers grandmother was a twin or something.. but its unlikely.. usual statistics say theres a 1 in 33 chance of twins for pregnancies.. you increase your rate by your mom being a twin. regardless, if you dont have twins you dont.. if you do.. more to love.. more work maybe, but more pride too.. just makes you extra special. you'll have to wait til you get an ultrasound to find out if there are two babies or one though. hope this helps-danielle
