I've been with my boyfriend for 2 years in October. He has a twin brother. His brother is never around I've only seen him once or twice since we've been together. He lives far away on the other side of town. My aunt told me since my boyfriend is a twin our kids might be twins too. I don't have twins on my side of the family. I have 4 brothers but none are twins. If we decide to get married and have kids will it be normal if our kids end up being twins since they're dad is ?

    It increases the chance of having twins but its not guaranteed

    Whilst identical twins are not genetic (it is more of an unusual incident during conception), fraternal (two eggs, two sperm) is and fraternal doesn't mean brothers. A brother and a sister can be "fraternal twins".

    Whilst it can skip a generation, it can occur in successive generations. Whilst it's by no means definite, there is a fair chance you will have twins and you would almost definitely not have them if you did not have any fraternal twins in your family.

    After googling I have to realize that being a twin actually slightly increases your odds of conceiving twins yourself.

    Twins usually skip one generation, so your grandkids might be twins.

      (I have four pair of twins in my family so I've done some research)
