The twin gene runs dominantly with the girls on my dad's side of the family. i'm pregnant now and showing early, how likely is it that i'll have twins?

3.3% twin gestation: In 2010 twin gestation was accounted in 3.3% of the live newborn birth. Ultrasound is the most reliable source of information in this case. Even in early pregnancy the twins gestation can be seen on ultrasound.
