My dad is a fraternal twin, and I think there may be twins in his mother's family too but I don't know anything about that side of the family

I think the chances are increased for having fraternal twins myself, but I'm sure that I will end up having just the one..!

There is no history of twins on either my partner's or my side of the family so I think it's just luck of the draw. I never imagined in a million years that I would become a twin mom but here I am - 7 weeks on with my little prince and princess. Being a twin mom is wonderful but be careful what you wish for - it's exhausting lol
