Chances Of Twins.

I was wondering what are the chances of getting pregnant with twins. It sort of runs in my family. My dad and his dad are both twins, And my dad's uncles a twin, Also on my moms side, My mom's sisters a twin and also her great grandmother?

I recently miscarried about a few weeks ago, I heard different news everywhere but is it true that it's easier to get pregnant with twins right after a miscarriage? I heard that you become more fertile and release more eggs.

Some women Ovulate after a m/c and some women dont...Some time more then One egg can be release during that time. but its not a forsure thing for everyone...EveryOne's different....But its not true that you are more "fertile" after a m/c. Because you have twins's running on both sides, I would think you would have a great chance....I as well have twin's on both sides of my family, and have never been pregnant with twins...Good Luck.

i think it's all luck really. i never in a million years expected to have twins. twins do run rampant through both sides of my family.

the only way to know if you are pregnant with twins is an u/s. we found out at 9 weeks we had two boogers instead of one.
