Women who are themselves fraternal twins have a 10% chance of producing twins, identical twin women have only a 0.6% probability of having a twin birth.
Sounds like a good chance! You sound like my family LOL!
You have the same chance as the general population. Identical twins are a genetic accident, researchers still don't know what triggers an egg to split making two embryos from one fertilized egg.
twins are passed down through the mother's genes.
George's chances are 1 in 3. His sister's chances are 1 in 5. The two probabilities are unrelated, nor is the fact that they are twins.
The mother carries the twin gene and can pass it onto her children. However, only her daughters can give birth to twins. Her sons can inherit the twin gene and pass that onto their daughters, who can give birth to twins. But her sons will only become fathers of twins if their wife has the twin gene. So the chances of having twins if your husband is a twin is not possible unless you have the gene. However, if your grandfather passed the gene to his daughter (your mother) and she passed the gene to you, then, yes you could have twins if your grandfather is a twin.
it depends on you and your bf or husband but it is likely u will have twins
My Paternal grandfather and his sister were twins. I myself have fraternal twin boys. But none of my 1st cousins, or my sister have twins. I have two cousins who have had 3 single births so far, and my sister has had 2 single births as well. I dont know the chances of them giving birth to twins, but it does seem relatively low.
The chances of being born a twin is 1/33
So So
Women who are themselves fraternal twins have a 10% chance of producing twins, identical twin women have only a 0.6% probability of having a twin birth.
the genes for twins only matter on your mother's side. Having a male partner with a history of twins will not affect you.
Of course, anything is possible. But, most usually, twins skip generations. So, a twin may be the grandparent of twins, rather than the parent.
definitely. It usually skips a generation or more but if someone is a twin, they have a larger chance of giving birth to twins than someone who isn't a twin or comes from a bloodline of twins.
its not likely that you will have twins then... normally you will not have a chance of having twins unless your mother side of the family has a history of twins it matter if you dads side does or not and also if you are over the age of 35 years old. Most likely if your siblings are twins the there is a possibility that they them selves or their children will have twins..
People who have had twins stand a better chance "statisticaly" of having twin again then those that did not have twins.
It depends on how often there have been twins in your family, it's all in your mom's good 'ol DNA. But considering that she was a twin, there are higher chances that you could have twins. Weather you would like twins or not, good luck!
