Who Carries The Twin Gene

My husband's maternal grandmother was a twin, and her mother was a twin as well who had a brother and sister who were also twins. My husband and I have 1 child who was a twin, but we lost the twin at about 10 weeks. We are trying for our second, and I am just kind of curious if this twin thing might happen again. Can someone please tell me who carries the gene? I get mixed answers.

It is the woman who carries the twin gene, you must either ovulate two eggs or to have your one egg split genetically. The man's sperm only reach what is already there.

Your dh can not impact your odds, but he can pa__s the gene on to any dd you have. Your chances if your twins were Frat are 1 in 12 of another set, but there is no way to know if yours were id or frat at 10 weeks. Good Luck ttc.
