I am a c section for TWIN BOYS on 10/28/11.  I always thought one of each b/g was more common also.  I have asked many nurses & they didnt exactly have an answer.

I have boy/girl.  Everything I read said the percentages are the same for b/g, g/g, or b/b.

g/g fraternal twins here via IVF. Geneticists say 50% girl or boy on any given pregnancy so it would be the same for twins. 50% boy girl and 25% both boys and 25% both girls to equal 100%. I would argue on this though as the father's sperm content needs to be 50/50 to make these stats accurate. hehehe

I agree with Kat_624. If they were identical twins then they would be either b/b or g/g. They are fraternal twins so it could be either b/b g/g b/g. I really hope I have b/g!!!!! I already have a girl so I want another girl and of course a boy!!

I have 2 yr old b/g twins.  Of all the twins I know, it seems like a pretty even split of g/g, b/b, and b/g combos.  I think it's pretty much a 50/50 chance with each baby, whether a singleton or multiple pregnancy.
