Usually fraternal twins run in every other generation.. so its more likely that your child has a greater chance of having twins than you do... but if its in your family at all you do have a chance... but the identical thing really doesnt matter at all, its spontaneous and could happen to anyone, doesnt run in the family

Good question.... My doctor has told us that fraternal twins are hereditary and identical are spontaneous (your chances are as good as anyone else in that case).... But you being fraternal would make your chances greater.
