On two seperate occasions, I found out I was pregnant with identical twins. I didn't carry them to term, but I wanted to know my odds of conceiving twins again.

I don't know exactly, but I would assume it's very high. I have 2 girlfriends each with 2 sets of twins. And they both also have singletons. One has 6 children and one has 7.

Your odds of conceiving identical twons aren't increased. Identical twins happen for really no reason at all. It is not genetic, it's almost like something that happens by chance. However if they were fraternal twins, then your chances of conceiving fraternal twins increase by a lot!!! So good luck! :d
