To my knowledge twins runs in the maternal line, my mums side has twins (i'm carrying once baby) and my partner is a non-identical twin which is irrelevant as that's his mother and her double ovulation.

All the best whichever the result so long as healthy :) x

Twins run in mothers side as my dads dad had identical twin boys over 50 years ago and I had twins nearly two years ago there's still a chance u could tho as some ppl have twins even if they don't run in there family x

I agree with cheeky monkey, it has something to do with the mothers side of the family, I am pregnant with twins and I either ovulated twice or one egg split but won't find that out until they're born. However I'm not sure whether the male could have something to do with the egg splitting for identical twins ? You never know. Good luck whatever the result :) x

You should be able to find out at any scan whether babies are identical... Unless you've chosen not to.. X

Haha Becca that's what I thought till my consultant told me the facts!!! My babies are both girls and they don't share a thing (eg like fraternal twins) however one third of these type of twins are identical. This happens when the egg splits within two days of fertilisation hense how we won't find out until they test my babies blood when they're born xx

If the babies are in the same sac then they're identical.. If they each have their own then they're not.. Is how everyone I knew found out xx
