A member asked:
So my grandmas sister had twins, and my grandma says twins skip a generation, plus i have a bmi over 40, could i have twins?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: I am not an expert on twins but i can say that with a bmi of 40 you have to be careful. Yes you can get pregnant but it is usually harder to get pregnant and have a healthy pregnancy at a bmi >40. In addition the baby is at a much higher rate of diabetes as he/she grows up. You are very young, please try to get healthier don't worry about being skinny. Good luck.
