Let’s talk twins 👇💚
FACT: There are 2 types of twins
1. Identical - 1 egg splits. Random. No control.
2. Fraternal - 2 eggs released. This one has factors.
FACTORS that can increase odds of fraternal twins:
1. Family history, esp on mom’s side
2. Age 30-40 - FSH levels are higher
3. Multiple pregnancies before
4. Height + body type - research is mixed
MYTH: No food, tea, or “special position” can guarantee twins. If anyone promises 100%, run 😂
IMPORTANT: Twin pregnancies are higher risk. More chance of early delivery, BP issues, etc.
If you’re trying to conceive, please speak with a doctor/gynecologist first. They’ll check your hormones + guide you safely 🙏
