Some women carry a gene that makes them prone to hyper ovulate while others have twins by chance. So, some women naturally release more than one egg at a time that happen to get fertilized and some women have an egg get fertilized that happens to split. There are also women who undergo fertility treatments and have multiples and that increases her chances for twins too. If twins run in the family on the women’s side, or she has already had a set of twins, her chances are increased of having twins too.

Anybody who can get pregnant could have twins, but it is never likely for anyone, regardless of family history.

Overall odds of any twins, identical or fraternal, are about 1 in 80. It does not skip a generation, as some have suggested. That is an old wives tale. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn’t, and sometimes it skips several. You never know when twins will occur.

When fraternal twins run in families, it comes from the female line because it has to do with a woman releasing more than one egg in a cycle. It can pass from a mother to a daughter and so on, but it’s no guarantee of twins. Your father’s side has nothing to do with it. Fraternal twins can also happen randomly.

There is no evidence to support that identical twins run in families. It is too random. The stat is about 1 in 325 live births. Scientists have not been able to isolate the moment of the split of the egg, so it is unknown why it happens. They do sometimes run in individuals, meaning that a woman who has had twins is more likely to produce them again than if she had a singleton pregnancy. This is also true of fraternal twins.

Im really really upset and confused right now because Im in IBP and my parents cant take the fact that Im always doing homework. Fine, Im not always homework, but I get on facebook as well. But Im a family-oriented person. My family is always going out to have stupid barbeques at the beach or family gatherings and stuff. I actually hate those things. Theyre freaking stupid, especially with the fact that when I go, theres always only kids around. But I feel like when I dont go, Im not spending enough time with my family and because of that they get upset with me or whatever (but they just dont really show it).

I live in the United Arab Emirates so right now my family are on their way to Dubai while I have to sit at home and write a lab report that is due today (yes, I know its a Saturday, but my teacher made it due today). The thing is I really wanted to go to Dubai as well, but I just couldnt tag along because of HOMEWORK! Im devastated (am I using the word correctly?) with the fact that Im always stuck between choosing family or school. Both are important to me. My mom said that if I do IB Diploma, I might be able to skip first year of college. I think its important if I get to skip that year because my parents are also supporting my older twin sisters college and its like they have to pay lots of money for them already and I dont wanna get my parents to pay a lot of money for me too. So thats why I want to try to do Diploma!!

But Im also kind of thinking of taking Certificate next year, but I dont know if thats gonna let me skip through that first year of college… IM SO CONFUSED!!!!

Im not good at time managing either.

And plus my family is kind of going up and down meaning my parents are always fighting and Im SO SO afraid that if my parents get a (second-time) divorce in the future, whats gonna happen to me?

Or what if anyway if they dont get a divorce or whatever, what if I decide to NOT take the diploma and suddenly next year my family decides to spend less time for family and its like HEY MOM AND DAD, I DECIDED TO NOT DO IB DIPLOMA AND ONLY NOW YOU DECIDED TO SPEND LESS FAMILY TIME??? Im CONFUSED!!!!!!

I just feel like having a talk with them about respecting me and not pressuring me about always doing homework and not spending time with family but if I do, my parents will be like `well youre always on facebook though` yea well what am I suppose to do, though. I get bored.

What should I do what should I do what should i do? Im tired of crying about this already please help and give helpful and motivating feedback I need it so much pleasee :((((( Thank you

As a mother of kids in a similar scenario I would suggest that the first thing to do is talk to your parents one to one and share this with them. They will solve all your confusion as they love you the most. And for family time - unless you join you wont like them and if you are doing it to spend time together then go with the mindset that you are going to enjoy whatever !!! When you go a few times you will fit in the groove and feel more comfortable and happy. Hope this helps….

im 14 weeks pregnant went for my scan and was told that one of my baby’s has edema around it and that could indicate there is something wrong. im going to see a specialist on monday but there are only 3 options terminate the hole pregnancy or to keep it going or serlective termination where i keep one but they all hold risks has anyone gone through anything like this or has any advice what i should do

Oh Honey I am SO SO Sorry to hear this. I agree with the first person though.. BUT If I were you I would cancel this question right now and wait to talk tothe specialist. No telling what some people will find on the internet to tell you. I am NOT trying to be rude.. I am trying to spare you any more worry. The doctor will be able to better explain all the options to you.. and It MIGHT not be as bad as they think.. so I would just wait to see the dr.

I wish you the best honey, and I will be praying for you.

This is serious, I’m a 28yr old guy with a really good job, settle life and my friend is having twins, she was going to get an abortion but I convince her to have them and that I would take care of the babies! She decided to have them and now I really want them! Can I sigb the birth certificate as their Father? Can I be the only one to sign the birth certificate, I don’t want her to sign it because I’m afraid she would later on try to get them back! Can I sign as the father and take care of them? I’m trying to avoid the adoption paperwork, time waste and money!

you can my mum told half custody for my babies cousin {unstable mother}and the social services did ask if we want full custody but m,y didn’t think that was fair…..anyway the mother could put them up as a open adoption that mean she choose the person and will still get to see the you and your fried should take this up with social services
