Thank you for the nice post! I think that celebrity parents/grandparents would learn something from the whole Jon Voight/Angelina situation.

Who care if she is having twins, people go all out like if they are the only twins being born I really don't care if they were just any other couple having twins they would not even be on the shows, marc should be ashamed of what he did to his wife and the boys and now he acts like oh what a great dad he will be.. his children are going to resent him when they find out what he did to their mother and jlo is the biggest loser I have ever seen. she and Marc broke a home with wondeful kids they are left behind.. Marc stop having children with every women you are with.. she is the biggest slut I have ever heard of no women with diginaty would of had so many men in her life what a disgrace to the Latina women...

Congratulations,

I have boy, girl 9mo twins. and twins do not run in my family at all. the doctor said because of my age of 35 is more likely the reason. She will enjoy them. I know I do seeing everyday the differences and how the interact with each other. Twins are truly a blessing. Again congratulations to the couple

I just love how her parents out the details before she has a chance to. First, her mother confirmed the pregnancy and her dad confirms twins, all while she just gets to pretty much not say anything and just enjoy her pregnancy, which she’s pretty much done!

I’ll be sure and thank her parents later for all the 411!

Okay, I went to TwinStuff.com's "Twin Wiki", and this is what I found (please especially pay attention the part in parantheses): And remember, just because mom or pop is a twin doesn't mean two are on the way. There is no way whatsoever to predict identical twins so a mom who is an identical twin has no better chance of producing twins than any other women. And the twinning gene is carried on the female side, so dad doesn't have much to do with it (at least in terms of the first generation - the dad can pass along a gene to his daughter).

While older mothers do have higher chances of having twins, their overall chance of conceiving naturally drops dramatically by that age. Even Alexis Stewart said in a interview posted here that many (most?) IVF clinics don't want to take women over 40, unless they're using donor eggs b/c their own eggs often just aren't viable at that age.

I'm positively thrilled for Marc & Jennifer, and wish them an easy birth and healthy babies!

I do understand that the Roman Catholic church outright prohibits the use of IVF, and so many couples that do IVF and who are are Catholic keep quiet about it. I don't know how religious Marc & Jennifer are, but he did have a wedding with his first wife in a very big Catholic cathedral in Puerto Rico.

Glad to finally have it confirmed.
I am happy for them I know she had been saying for many years that she wanted kids.
I know a few years ago on The "ellen"
Show she said she would love to have twins.
I'm guessing she made this statement while undergoing IVF/Ferility treatments because
when doing ART, The chances of multiples is 25%++. As the mother of twins, I have done a LOT of reading. I wanted to clear up several things. Her fathers statement about His sister having twins, Then J-lo having twins because if runs in his family. It's simply ignorance on human reproductions. Every Man make MILLIONS of sperm, The sperm having nothing to do with making twins.
In spontanious occuring twin pregnancies,
about 1/3 are Identicals, & 2/3 Fraternal.
Fraternals do run in families on the maternal sides ONLY. I've heard many false things in reguards to twins since having my twin girls. I wish more celebs in their late 30's & 40's would pubicly speak of how their twins were actually concieved and stop giving millions of young ladies the false sence of fertility.

Congrats to JLO!
