I'm an identical twin and my husband is a fraternal twin. I am 31 and he is 33. We each have 2 children, all singles, from previous marriages. What are our chances of having twins?

While your husband being a twin won't make any difference, some women are genetically predisposed to having twins. As well, although you aren't considered being in the "advanced maternal age" group just yet, older women do have more incidence of twin births as the likelihood of more than one egg being released occurs with hormone changes.
