No, most pregnancies do not start out as twins. When the ovaries release two eggs and both are fertilized then will twins be born (fraternal/nonidentical twins). Or a fertilized egg may divide before implantation resulting in identical twins.

My mother miscarried twins do i chance at having twins?

maybe. most pregnancies start out as twins very early on, but one dies right away. The stronger one lives. so I guess it depends how far along in the pregnancy your mother was. twins do run in families. are there other twins in your family? aunts, uncles, grandparents? that would make your chances of twins higher. Twins run on my aunts side i figured it wouldn't affect me.
