Fraternal twins tend to run in families, especially on the mother's side.
Researchers think that's due to higher levels of a hormone that stimulates the release of eggs. Sayegh guesses that each of Harris' ovaries is producing an egg each month, instead of one egg being released at a time. Harris said the hardest part about having twins is getting all of them ready in the morning. I get up at 6 a.m. By 9 p.m., I'm usually in bed.
