6 Ways to Increase Your Chances of Having Twins or Multiples

1. Your Family History: Yes, that's your family history not his. If you or your mum are a twin, or your sister has had twins, you're more likely to conceive more than one baby.

2. Your Lifestyle: Women who have a low-fat diet, especially vegans and vegetarians, are less likely to have multiples.

3. The Number of Children You Have: The more children you've had, the more likely you are to conceive multiples.

4. Your Age: Naturally conceived twins and triplets are more common in women in their 30s and 40s.

5. Where You're From: Western Europe sees around one in 60 twin pregnancies. Meanwhile, in Nigeria, twins make up one in every 20 or 30 pregnancies.

6. Fertility Treatment: One of the biggest things that can boost your likelihood of having twins is fertility treatment, such as IVF.
