What are my chances of having twins?

Question

My husband has twin uncles and his cousin has twins..What are my chances of having twins. Seeing as its it birth moms brothers and her niece?

Answer 1

I have always heard that it follows the woman not the man.

Answer 2

having twins can be genetic, but because it is your husband who has the history of twins in his family, it will not make any difference to the likelihood of you having twins than normal.

Answer 3

Identical twins are completely random, there is no way to predict who will have them.

Fraternal twins occur when two eggs are released- and that has to do with you, not your husband.

Usually, when there is more than one set of multiples in a family, it is coindience, not genetics.

Answer 4

Twins run on the women's side, having twins on his side would not increase your chances of having twins.

Answer 5

The female determines the number and the male determines the s*x.
