Your sister-in-law having twins doesn't really have any bearing on it whether you will or not, as it's really only determined by the mom's side. However, you still have a better than average shot since there were twins on your mom's side, particularly if they are fraternal.
But! The odds are still much higher that you won't.

Most likely you will not have twins. Usually it skips a generation. You sister in law may have had twins on her side also. Which is what made her have twins. I am not promiseing you wont have twins it's just not a huge percentage.

I dont think anyone can tell you that. I know couples with a few sets of twins on each side and all of them had single births.

None. All my family members had twins except for me!! Maybe someday because I've always wanted them!!

You have a pretty good chance. My grandma and my dad (same side) are twins. My grandma is fraternal and my dad is identical.Everyone is expecting me to have twins.

It depends mostly on the mother. I doubt you will, but it's a possiblity.
