Today, I was told I will be having twins; this came as a shock since there are no twins in my family. When I asked my mom about it, she said that she wasn't surprised and not to worry about it because she had "absorbed her twin" and that the problem would "take care of itself." FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I found out that yet again I'm having twins. Sounds great and all, but the only problem is that my mother-in-law is the one pregnant. Oh boy, I'm fucked! FML
Today, I announced my fourth pregnancy, this time with twins. I heard my mother mutter, “Finally two kids from the same dad.” FML
Today, one of my twin sons found out he's going to be a dad. His little sister who loves science ended up telling him that, since he has a twin who is genetically identical, he's genetically the baby's dad too. My son, being a bit dim, took this to mean his brother slept with his wife and hit him. FML
Today, I went to the hospital in labor expecting a baby boy. I ended the day with identical twins, a baffled doctor, and a husband convinced that our sons can clone themselves. FML
Today, the good news is that my girlfriend is pregnant. The bad news is that twins run in her family. Worse, so do triplets, and I just recently lost my job. FML
Today, my sister-in-law announced that she’s pregnant. With my kid. And the doctor thinks it might be twins. FML
Today, after I had a miscarriage in December, and finding out in June that I was 13 weeks pregnant with twins, I was told out that Baby B had consumed Baby A. FML
Today, I was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries and confided in my mom, after being told I would have trouble having kids. Five minutes later, I hear the whole family laughing about it downstairs. FML
Today, I told my girlfriend that my identical twin and I are not in fact related, that he's adopted, and that the only reason we look exactly the same is because we eat and drink the same things. She actually believed it. FML
Today, my mother decided to tell me about how my twin brother almost killed me in the womb when his cord wrapped around my neck. When she left the room, he said, "You won't be so lucky next time." FML

At least your kids will always have someone to play with! Unless of course one of your children absorbs the other.

Having twins with no other twins in the family can happen. My sister and I are the only twins in my family :D

It sucks that she thinks it's a problem, but there's actually a syndrome called vanishing twin syndrome (VTS) and the second baby is literally absorbed. Pretty creepy lol i hear almost 80% of pregnancies start as twins but this happens o.o good luck on your two gifts!

Also, it is very common for canines to absorb potential offspring due to environmental hazards etc.

If you were freaking out acting like it was a big shock then maybe she thought that you thought it was a problem. Or she's just odd.

Identical twins are completely random and are not genetically predisposed. Non identical are genetic due to the mother genetically producing more than one egg during ovulation. Congrats on the pregnancy though! I'd love to have twins!

Is your mom a hermaphrodite?

Identical twins can happen even if no one else in either side of yours or your man's husband have any. Though with a lot of twins in their family usually end up with feternal. So it's nothing to be shocked about.

Even if there were twins on the fathers side, it won't help the chances of having twins considering identical is luck of the draw and fraternal happens when the MOTHER drops two eggs. It has nothing to do with the father at all besides him supplying the sperm
