Twins?

Question

If my husbands only siblings are twins what are the chances are of me conceiving twins? Just curious! No twins at all in my fam just his

Answer

Only the females genes determine twins.  So twins on your husbands side don’t matter here.

Answer

Identical twins are totally random. Fraternal twins can have a genetic link. You still have a small chance of releasing 2 eggs at once whether or not it runs on your family, but if your husbands side carries it, it typically “skips a generation” because it’s passed from father to child and encoded in their dna to have the predisposition for having twins themselves, not for making you have twins. Idk if that makes sense. It makes sense in my head but sometimes my pregnancy brain messes up my explanations. Haha! ❤️

Answer

You aren’t going to ovulate two eggs just because your husband has twins in his family haha The man has nothing to do with whether or not his partner conceives fraternal twins. The man CAN carry the gene and pass it to his daughter which would increase her chances of twins, but not yours. 
Identical twins however, are totally random though and could happen to anyone regardless of genetics.

Answer

False that only the female carries the gene. Both male and female carry the gene but the male can give the gene to his daughter or son, but the female body determines if single or twin because we ovulate.

Answer

identical twins is a toss I think.  Fraternal twins means releasing two eggs at once so if it was common in the women's family it would increase the odds.  Twins running in man's family don't matter.

Answer

Every woman has a 3% chance of conceiving fraternal twins.  I did, with no twins in my family.
