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.

There are two primary types of twins, Identical and Fraternal. Identical twins occur when the egg splits after fertilization. To date no indication of a genetic link has been found. Anyone has a chance, though small, of having identical twins. Fraternal twins occur when more than one egg is dropped during ovulation. This trait can be inherited from the mother's side of the family. Studies have shown that the chances are also increased by being overweight or older.

How likely is it to have identical triplets?
No. That's stupid. But it is theoretically possible to have identical quadruplets, as in two sets of identical twins. (Another User) But I have heard of identical triplets - It was in the newspaper. They are all 5 years old (Third user) Actually, it IS possible, though exceedingly rare - said to occur in around 1 in 200,000,000 (200 million) births. It happens when one egg splits into identical twins, and then one of those eggs splits again, resulting in three total. As long as all goes well and all three survive the pregnancy and birth, they will live to be identical triplets. There is a story about identical triplets born to a British woman in Austria in 2007. I'd put a link here but don't know if they're allowed. Just search on "identical triplets in Austria" and it will come up. Don't use the quotes.

Fraternal (non-identical) multiples caused by the mother releasing (or being implanted with) two or more eggs… the father has no influence in the connection fraternal multiples! Identical multiples are just a miracle of nature when the egg splits two or more times, it is not generally considered a genetic trait. You chance would only increase if you were one of a naturally conceived triplet (with at least one fraternal).
