Twins in the family
Hi
After a lot of research I have been told that their identical twins are not hereditary (in fact no-one seems to be certain what caused identical twins, I am pregnant with identical twins and I think its coz I went to Thorpe Park when I was unknowingly pregnant, I think the rollercoastes caused the egg to split! lol) Non identical twins are genetic but its the woman who has to inherit the Hyper ovulation gene.

My sister is mum to 2 sets of identical twin boys. As much as I love all my nephews i was quite relieved to know i'm only carrying one - unless of course one is hiding!!! Sab x
Sorry but I have no idea about the milk thing. I know the 1st set were planned but the 2nd were completely unexpected. There are 7 years in between so they're not too much of a handful all together !!! Is milk / Calcium supposed to have an effect? Sab x
