There is one set of twin on DH's side. But it's a pretty distant relative. The daughter of his (much older) cousin has a set of b/g twins.
Are there multiples in your family?
-
3 sets, all fraternal: my mom and her sister, two of their uncles, and DH's cousin's kids (B/G). All conceived without interventions.
-
I have identical twin brothers.
ETA: they were born back in the days when technology wasn't the greatest. My mom found out she was having twins the day before she had them.
-
My first cousin has twins.
-
My grandpa (paternal) is a fraternal twin (he has a twin sister). None since though. I was kinda hoping to have twins but there's only one in here lol
-
@mrsjazz:
Talk about a shocker!
-
My DH is a twin!
-
I am a twin and DH is a twin.
-
@MaisyMay: wow!!!!!
-
DH's mom is a twin.
-
@regberadaisy: DH has twin sisters.
My great uncle has twin girls.
That's it for both of us. -
My aunt's are fraternal twins.
-
My maternal grandmother birthed stillborn twins, I have 2 sets of twin cousins on my dads side and my cousin (not a twin) had twins
-
@regberadaisy: Yeah she was so shocked. My sister and I were ecstatic because we were each getting a baby!
-
Two of DH's nieces have b/g twins.
No twins on my side in at least four generations. -
I have identical twin brothers. And one of my dad's aunts had two sets!
-
@MaisyMay: that's really cool!
I wish twins ran in our families and I could pop out a set myself!
-
My FIL is an identical twin. His parents arranged for him and his brother to marry a set of identical girl twins (he's from a country where arranged marriage was the norm) - his brother went through with it and married one of the twins, he and the other twin backed out!
-
No, but it was suspected that there was a vanishing twin during my mother's pregnancy with me.
(Edited to reword for clarity!)
-
My sister and I both have twins, but they are IVF twins. Endometriosis runs in our family...
I do have a set of cousins that are identical twins, and both my grandmas had siblings that were twins.
-
My grandma thinks her youngest was a twin. She had heavy bleeding like previous miscarriages but was still pregnant. Grandma's sister had twin boys. My cousin did IUI and has triplets. DH say twins are in his side as well.
-
My grandma is a twin. DH was a twin but his brother was stillborn.
-
Nope. First set of twins in both of our families.
-
None in either of our families.
-
My MIL is a twin.
-
My dad has a brother and sister who are twins, my grandpa (paternal) was a twin, and also had another set of twin siblings as well.
-
Not on my side, but my brother's wife is expecting twins and her mother was a twin. So that thing about twins skipping a generation is true for them!
My son had a vanishing twin, but I don't think that counts. There are no twins in my or my DH's family.
-
My twins are the only pair in my family. But, they're IVF twins so I'm not sure that really counts.
If I remember correctly, my FIL was a twin but the other twin passed away at birth. -
My mom has cousins who are twins, but that's all I know!
-
@mrsjazz: Haha my mom found out I was a twin the day before I was born too!
-
Twins run on DH'S side of the family and skips a generation.
DH is a twin himself so I'm hoping no twins for me.
-
No... but I still wish there was LOL! I really wanted to have twins
-
@petunia354: I have three sets of twin cousins (BB, GG & BG) and another cousin, not a twin, had twins (boys).
-
My great grandma was a twin, my grandma was a twin and my father was a twin. None of the twins survived though
-
My dad is a fraternal twin and has fraternal twin brothers. His sister had fraternal twins. I have identical twins. My husband has a cousins who only had twins, 5 sets total but she lost one from each of her last two sets.
-
My grandpa was a twin. I wanted to have twins but not now! Going from a family of 5 to 7 would be terrifying, haha.
-
My husband is a twin. And I have twin cousins.
-
I don't know of any buy my husband's grandfather was a twin. My in laws really wanted us to have twins!
-
@mrsjazz: My best friend is a fraternal twin and his parents didn't know they were having twins until after my friend was born and the doctors said another baby was coming!
