No, there is no 'technique' you can use to have twins. Having twins is a genetic thing. If twins are common in your family, then you are more likely to have twins yourself.

Yes thanks and even i think so there is not a way that can lead you to get twins and yes it is genetic so yes if one family has twins and there are some chances that his generation will also have twins.

@owlwings: Really? What happened to her? Did she over-ovulated? Is she octa-mom? I've heard that news.

I do not know if you can apply modern day scientific technology to achieve getting a twins. I have often hold the view that this are natural gifts from God that occur to very few set of people. Although, some people get twins as a result of genetic factors others just have to make do with a child. I do know that one can get a female child or a male child this days. But as for twins I do not know if it is really possible.

Yes its up to God and therefore there can be no scientific technology used for such a purpose that is two have twins so i think one must not wonder a lot about it as its a God gift.

It is scientific. It has long been a fact that twins, or triplets, and so on is hereditary. It means it is passed down from generations to generations through the genes. If you and your partner don't have the genes, then you can't produce twins. And those who has the gene for producing twins can not produce triplets, and so forth. It's in the genes. Genetics. It's science.

Naturally having twins just happens. In IVF than more than one can be put in the lady. Then if two live she will have twins and if three live she will have triplets. A multiple pregnancy can be more challenging that a one baby pregnancy like premature labor. I know a lady that tried to get pregnant for 8 years but it didn't happen. When she gave up trying she got pregnant with twin boys.

Yes one should never go against nature and one should never ever try to conquer the nature because it cannot be conquered so i believe there is no such technique to get twins but it all depends on the Almighty.

The ability to produce twins is hereditary. If you want to have twins, find a partner who has twins among his relatives (blood relatives, not in-laws because that still doesn't affect his genes). Or you can find out if you have the gene yourself. I think it's more potent that way, when both partners have the gene. Anyway, why do you want twins? I think that's a lot of work. Twice the work, twice the problems, twice the expenses.. lol! Twice the stress! I think you're crazy.

Let's compare it with hair. If you and your partner have black hair, and everyone in your relatives have black hair as well, then you can't expect to have a baby with blond hair. The same thing with producing twins.

Typically twins run within a persons family genes. There really is no way to do this naturally..... As I said it would have to be in your genes or a fluke if you ovulated 2 eggs at one time for fraternal twins.

I think something is wrong with your head gamma. Yes, there is also the situation of ovulating 2 eggs at the same time. But I hear that's pretty rare.

Genetic factor is the most important thing to have twins and there is i think no other way.But most of the couples think of having twins but they can't because it is not in their hands it is in God's hand.

I think having twins runs in the genes. I noticed if a family has twins, then the next generations produce twins too. There is really no technique on how to have one. Well dear it is really nice to have ones. I used to pray I could have twins too. Sadly the Lord did not permit me to have one but He gave me twins in another way. A niece of mine gave birth to twins and so these babies are my grandchildren. Now I have twins I should say because they are always with me and they are almost like members of my family. Even my husband and son enjoys them a lot. I\m sharing a pic of them here. I hope you don't mind.

Twins - Andrew and Andrei are twins
Oh sorry, I forgot to attach the photo. So now here it is the photo of my adorable kids. They add sunshine to our home. Twins are really enjoyable and I hope you too will have one someday.

Having twins runs in the family or a product of science. My mom had sisters who were twins and I was hoping and praying for twins myself. Back in high school, I've already planned for their names. Years later, I got married and had 2 kids. Having twins is still a dream. There is a myth at our province about conceiving twins. They say if wanting to have twins, a pregnant woman has to eat bananas that are twins... bananas that look like Siamese twins . But this is just a myth...

yes there is a way to have identical twins but it is bit complicated..first of all female eggs are fertilized with male sperm in laboratory then the resulting embryo is transferred back to female uterus(womb).this is a lab process..but identical twins happen when a single sperm fertilizes a single egg that then split in two.Each one goes on to grow into a baby,but both cells share exactly the same genetic instruction(DNA).hence it is both natural as well as artificial process..!

No i don't think there is much you can do to have twins because if there would be then most of the couples would have done it and the population would have been much more.I think it is God's wish and natural.

Yes i think that it is completely natural because everyone will look for twins so yes i totally agree with you that the pollution would have been much more if there was any scientific way.
