    Having twins in your family does increase your chances. My husband and I have no twins in our family and yet without fertility drugs, had twins after 2 single pregnancies. Other things that increase the chance of twins: being over 30, getting pregnant the same month you go off of the pill (both of these played factors in my ending up with twins.) I stopped taking the pill January 1st and had a very, very faint positive line on my test on January 27th. But I was able to test positive quickly with all three of my pregnancies. My twin pregnancy was easier than the two single pregnancies but honestly without the ultrasound confirming the presence of two, I had no extra or unusual symptoms. I had no morning sickness at all with the twins.I had it with my first 2 though. There are two ways to know if you're having more than one. Obviously, an ultrasound. And a blood test can show higher than normal levels of the pregnancy hormone.
