Which parent carries the gene for twins?

I am a 27 year old female. I want to have twins. Which parent carries the gene for twins?

Hi,

So, neither parent carries a gene for twins as there is no gene for twins that we know of. This is why you have no idea which parent carries the gene.

Warmest regards,
