Multiple Births
Multiple births happen when two or more fetuses are developed during a pregnancy. Two fetuses, or twins, are common; but eight fetuses, or octuplets, are rare. Premature birth is most likely to happen to babies born from a multiple-birth.

My mum is a set of twin. does that mean i could have twins?
Yes. its a 50/50 chance,it depends on the genes she had. if u have a twin gene and she had one,u would have 50 or 75 percent chance

What are the chances your boyfriend is gay when his identical twin brother is gay?
== == * In my opinion not much chance. Sometimes it's what people nurture as in they are born that way and sometimes its nature, this is them adapting it from society or starting to like the same sex. I am a twin, I'm bisexual, and I'm a girl. My brother is somewhat homophobic so he cant know about my sexuality. As you can see it's what we want and not because you're a twin and gay it doesn't mean the other one has to be one! nonsense.
== == * Little to none. Homosexuality is not genetic and he is dating (I'm assuming) you're a woman. == == * I believe personally it is genetic (some gays may learn to enjoy a same sex partner from puberty on without having gay tendencies to begin with.) Two of the most convincing studies have proved conclusively that sexual orientation in men has a genetic cause. An examination of twins by psychologist Michael Bailey of Northwestern University. Among identical twins, he found that if one was gay, the other had a 50 percent chance of also being gay. Among fraternal twins, who do not share the same DNA, there was only a 20 percent chance. To the person who asked this question don't jump to conclusions! There is also proof that one identical twin can be gay and the other is not. There are many studies going on with twins and the genetic factors re homosexuality. You should know your boyfriend enough to be candid with him and ask him straight out if he has ever felt as if he were gay like his brother. I have no doubt he will say a flat 'No' so take it as that! Gay men are not interested in women sexually (will often have many women as friends only.) * I am an Identical twin and I am gay. So I feel like I am the best person to answer this question. I personally believe I have been this way all my life and my brother is his own person and shares nothing other then a same look. Personalities are different even in twins so are preferences. I live in a dorm with my boyfriend and my brother lives downstairs and is visited by his girl friend. If he says he is not gay, he isn't. If you don't believe him, break up - no use being with someone you don't trust, and I doubt a gay person in a comfortable situation (gay brother) would date a woman. Only men who are ashamed or feel uneasy about being gay would date a women.
How likely am i to have twins if my mothers father is a twin?
Well since you have half of your mother's genes, and half of your father's genes' I'd say about 50/50
A standard DNA test would rank them as siblings.
Is there Dichorionic and diamniotic in MZ twins?
Yes, the number of placentas (chorionicity) and amnions (amnionicity) depend on the stage at which the fertilized egg splits. The earlier the split, the more likely each fetus will have its own placenta and amnion. If the egg splits before or by day 3 - each fetus will have its own placenta and amnion resulting in a dichorionic diamniotic pregnancy.
Yes she is. They announced it on the news 10/11/11 by Bianca Dela Garza.
Can quintuplets come from one egg?
Yes, the egg can split into five. If this is the case, then all five children will be identical, and therefore all the same gender
Why are identical twins more alike when they are babies?
Because they havn't learned different things, developed different personalities, or done different things.
What do you call 8 babies born together at the same time?
Eight babies born together are called octuplets
What are the chances that a male triplet can have triplets himself?
Multiple births are genetic through the mother's side, since her egg splits (for identical multiples) or she releases more than one egg (for fraternal multiples).
Has any president in history ever been the father of triplets or more?
no. and George W Bush was the only one who even had twins.
Which twins are going to replace the Bella Twins?
Maybe The Blossom Twins but I think the Bellas are better twins
If four babies are quadruplets what are eight babies called?
Octuplets
(octo means 8) Others-
2 babies=twins
3 babies=triplets
4 babies=quadruplets
5 babies=quints
6 babies=sextuplets
7 babies =septuplets
8 babies =Octuplets
If your aunt was a quadruplet what are chances you will have twins?
It completely depends... If she was a fertility treatment baby or natural.
Not personally. One baby is hard enough but two the same age...no sleep, no personal time.
How can you tell if someone is a hypochondriac?
A hypochondriac is a person who constantly has imagined illnesses and diseases. They are convinced they have one serious illness or another, one after another. They go to doctor after doctor, trying to find one to validate their belief that they have some sort of serious illness.
It sometimes gets so severe their body may actually begin to mimic the symptoms of the disease or illness they believethey have.
If an identical twin marries an identical twin what is the likelihood of them having twins?
the statistics of twins marrying twins having twin children is only a slight fractional increase in percentage of chance. it is almost negligable however the slight increase has lead many people to believe the common misconseption of twim marraige resulting in the birth of more twins alot.
Siamese twins are an older, somewhat pejorative name for conjoined twins.
The term comes from the brothers Chang and Eng Bunker (1811-1874) who were born in Thailand, which at the time was known as Siam. They became world famous in their day as a medical curiosity, before moving to the United States, marrying and settling down.
