do twins run in your family?

Same here!

 

The last twin pregnancy was with my great-great grandmother. I have fraternal g/b twins.

 

Mine are the first set on my side and Dh's side. But I had a miscarriage two months prior to conceiving my twins, and I think that had something to do with it. JMO.

That was way funny! I can’t wait until someone ask me if twins run in my family so that I can use that response.
My brothers wife had boy/girl twins and my great-grandmother was an identical twin.

Me, too...I've always thought my m/c had something to do with conceiving the twins.

LOL Di!

There are no twins in the family, except for mine.

 

I believe my grandfather´s mum was a twin but that´s all. My B/G twins are a result of IVF though.

I´ve also read that twins run on the maternal, not paternal, side. Not my opinion though, just what I´ve read in books.
