What Are My Possibilities Of Having A Male Or Female Twins?

Hi;I already have a baby boy 3 years and i am pregnant in twins in the fifth week and i can't wait to know if they are a g/g or b/b or g/b, however my husband's uncle had a boy in the beginning and a twins boy and girl after? what are my possibilities.They are the only twins case in our whole family. My ultrasouund most likely shows that i have two seperate sacs? so what are my twins genders chances???.

Hello and welcome,

It is not possile to predict the gender of the twins. Twins in your husbands family have no link whatsoever to your twins [ fathers family history of twins is not relevant in these cases]. Having two seperate sacs means that the twins are diamniotic, but again this does not have any relation to sex. Twins with one sac are of the same sex but even then they may be both males or both females. for two sacs we cannot comment even on this so they may be g/g, b/b, or g/b.

So just wait and see.

Best of luck.
Hope this satisfies your query.
