  • Nope, same as anybody else. It’s thought there’s no genetic component to identical twins.

    If they weren’t identical then you would have a higher chance of twins but no guarantees.

  • About 1 in a thousand.

  • well maybe if you do it with a midget or some kind of deformed person

  • depends on your genes

  • Twins usually skip a generation so if that is true, then one of your children would have twins, not you. But who knows!!

  • its a doubt you will have twins, there is a small chance because of he genetics, otherwise unlikely

  • Ask your doctor!!!! They can probably tell you better than any1 here.

  • Actually pretty good, my wifes ex husband was a twin and so was his mother and his grandmother. I think that is so freaky

  • I’ve seen that on Discovery Health before. But, they became conjoined. I hope that doesn’t happen with you! Being conjoined can be pretty bad…

  • if you have a family history of twins yes you have great chances. but be careful if you do during the pregnancy i mean staying in bed being confined to bed rest.

    goodluck

  • identical twins aren’t genetic therefore you have the same chance as everyone else

  • It is about a 3% chance.

  • ummm…no the chances aren’t that high i hate to break it to you but it is pretty rare anyone gets twins…and sorry to hear about your twin

  • no there is not really a chance of twins for you i’m sorry. your mother had the genetics in her and you can’t get them. my mother says i might have them because someone in my family had them and so far they haven’t been passed down..i have a greater chance :(

  • Well for me the chances are pretty high since I have twins and I am expecting twins and my mom is a twin.

    You never know, but I give it a 70/30

  • if twins run in the family then yeah there is a good chance of yhou having twins :) or if yhou are undergoing or had ivf (sorry dont know yhour age lol) xxx

  • did anyone else in your family have twins? twins are genetic and i dont think you’ll automatically get twins just because your mom had them…

    research your family tree a little bit.. if alot of your family members had twins, their is probably a chance that u will 2..

  • Identical twins do not run in families, fraternal twins do. If your twin was identical then you do not have any higher chance of conceiving twins.

    Women who are taller, over 35, or who have had a previous set of twins, all have higher chances of having twins, even if fraternal twins does not run in the family.

  • Only fraternal twins are hereditary. But, your chances increase as you get older. Basically you have a 3% chance.

  • My mom actually had twins and they are now about 1 week old! Born January 9th! Boys, (big age difference between us) Twins run in the family a bit and its said that if you are over 35 it is a high chance you’ll have twins! Also if twins are in your blood you could say I think you may have a good chance at having twins!

  • Chances are higher than mine No one and I mean no one has ever had more than one kid at a time in my family. My friend jenna has a twin brother and their mother was a twin and that mothers mother was a twin so their chances are really high. I think your chances are pretty good. Hope that helps!!

  • I’d say 50%. You never know! Good luck! =)

  • Identical twins happen by chance.They are not hereditary like fraternal twins, which some say can be passed down from the mother.

  • MKC:

    You have the same odds as anyone else (3%). Identical twins are not hereditary, only fraternal twins. Are you sure your twin was identical? Most of us won’t know until our twins are born. If your twin was fraternal instead, you then have a higher chance.

  • Hey girl I just had twin boys in August. If you are a twin you have a good chance to have twins. I was not a twin my little brother was and my mom lost his twin. Is there a lot of twins in your family? Just on my mom’s side there are 15 sets! That is every generation. Mine were natural too. Our chances of having twins again are 1 in 8. I know this isn’t exactly what you were looking for but i hope it helps a little. I would do some research also.
