I am currently trying to have a baby and I have always wanted to have twins. Twins run in my mums side of the family and my dads side but I want to increase my chances more to conceive twins. I have heard that if you eat certain foods like yam, can increase your chances of having twins but I just want to know what other things I could do or eat to help increase my chances?

While having twins (or more multiples) is still more chance than science, your chances of having twins may increase if:

1. You Use Fertility Drugs or Treatments

2. You are an Older Mom

3. Twins Run in Your Family

4. Your Track Record(more pregnancies you had, the higher the chance)

5. Weight and Height(if you BMI is over 30, chances are higher)

6. You are Nigerian

7. You eat a pre-pregnancy diet rich in dairy and animal protein.

8. Best Way to Guaranty you Have Twins

Although there are some things you can do to increase your chances of having twins, the only sure way to have twins in your family is to adopt. One of my friends has adopted not one but two sets of twins in her full house.
