What are my chances of having multiples?

Twins come from the woman's side (your side)

So you MIGHT have twins, but there small chance.

So what is your chance of having more than one baby at a time?

Basically, it is 3% or 1 in 33.

There are things that can increase your chances of having a multiple birth, including a mother being 30 or over when she conceives. For example, while there is a 3% chance of having a multiple birth at age 25-29, it increases to 4% at 30-34 years and almost 5% at 35-39 years.

Other factors that can increase your chances of having twins include having a maternal family history of multiple births (fraternal), and of course, using fertility treatments (in vitro fertilization or fertility drugs).

Your chance of having twins is also influenced by your race (multiples are more common in African Americans and least common in Hispanics and Asians), how many times you have been pregnant (the chance of having twins increases with each pregnancy), and whether or not you have had twins already.

Family history doesn't matter that much really but you may have be more at risk for twins since your mother has twin brothers. The normal chances of having twins is only 3% but at the same time you may have a point or more than most people but not that much of a difference. Maybe like 5% at the most. Just what my fertility specialist told me when my great grandmother had 19 children and their are twins on both sides of the family for me and my husband. However, I still got lucky and had fertility issues. So family history is only a small bit of your medical chances.

Well there is a risk of having miltiples with fertility drugs... but if you are really serious and want a child... additional should make you happy.. I wouldn't say "I don't want to end up..." I would love to have many children as long as you can support and love them.. but if God gives you seven... it shouldn't matter to you. You should be happy and not thinking u end up with them.
