    Have any twins had twins?

    I am wondering if anyone out there is a twin or knows a twin who has been lucky enough to have twins!

    I am fraternal twin, and fraternal twins are in my family (although they normally skip a generation). I was interested if any twins have had twins??

    Thanks

    Thanks Ladies!

    I would love to have twins and wasn't sure if this was common... but apparently it could happen (of course I would be happy with a single pregnancy too)!

    Imagine having two sets of twins - that family certainly would be busy!

    I am an ID twin and I had ID twin boys. It was a shock to us and to my obstetrician!! My twin sis was terrified as she was preg at the same time, but she ended up with a singleton.

    Hi, my DH's cousin's wife.
    She is a fraternal twin & she had identical twin girls nearly 8 months ago.
    They reckon frat having identical is a very slim chance.

    I also have a friend who was pg with twins, but lost one at 5 months. Her sister had twins & her DD had twins in January. All fraternal, so no skipping of generations there.
