Hi Shell and welcome to BB
I was pg with twins naturally however lost both of them last year. After the m/c there was a lot of damage done to my tubes, so I had to go onto IVF to try to have another pg. 2nd go at IVF and I am now pg with twins. So we are a bit of both, natural and IVF.
HTH
I am not a Mum of twins, but have 2 GF who have twins (one set of identical boys, the other set is fraternal girl and boy) and neither of them were on any form of IVF/fertility drugs or anything.....both slightly older Mums at aged 35...........
Hi Mine were natural ( and Identical, which are unable to be caused by other factors except the wow look what the cells did!!!)
tamB im sorry about your loss i could imagin how you felt you must be a very stong person but congrats on your pg now do you know what the babies sex`s are?
take care

Shell, not yet but eagerly awaiting when I can find out.
Hi Shell,
My SIL has 2 sets of twins and both of these were natural and she was in her early 20's when she had them.
Doctor's told her that if she went back for another go she would more than likely have triplets!
Naturally conceived, I was 27. SIL had fraternal twin boys, naturally conceived, who passed away & she was 21. :(
I conceived my first and second set naturally but after taking clomid for a long time. I was taking a break when we conceived both sets. Don't know if the clomid had a residual effect.
My first set were born when I was 24 and these little guys are almost exactly one decade on!! Twins every ten years!
Both sets are fraternal.
Ours were conceived naturally and I believe they are fratenal. We find out the sexes on August 18 and I can't wait!!!
My twins were conceived through IVF. Due March /April06
Welcome to BellyBelly Kelly, and congratulations on the twins! We've had a few twin mums join up lately, may I ask how you found BellyBelly?
All the best :)
I was searching on google for info on my OB when I found bellybelly
Welcome to BB Kelly and welcome to the twins group
Ahhh no probs, thanks Kelly :) Was wondering if it was a co-incidence with all the twin mums about but must just be lots of them about. All the best for your pregnancy!
I found BellyBelly from my IVF pregnancy HandBook. I think it's a great website.

My twins were conceived on Ovulation Induction.
Talk to you soon

My fraternal twins were concieved via IVF
Hi Trish,
The doctor put me on bed rest. That's why I don't write very often these days. How are you?
wow - you are almost 28wks - fantastic - why bed rest ? I hope you are feeling okay
I am 17 weeks today 2 weeks to my scan.
I was having some pain in my pelvic last week, and sometimes I can feel that one of the twins is kicking very low in my uterus. It feels bizar. I also didn't put on a lot of weight and that worries me.
Gee Chris I hope that things are ok now. Take it easy and look after those little bubbas.
My baby boy and baby girl were concieved naturally. I am 24 weeks 2 days and very very excited!!!!
Love Kel
I have boy / girl twins who where conceived naturally 4 days before my 21st birthday.
I was told I have a really high chance of concieving twins again, about 1 in 8 and the chance will increase the older I get and the more pregnancies I have. Has anyone else heard this and does anyone know how they came up with 1 in 8? The only thing I can think of is that you must have 10 times the chance if you have twins and since the chance for the general population is 1 in 80, it brings it down to 1 in 8.
Hello Everyone,
I'm an identical twin with fraternal twin boys aged 2 & 7mths, (conceived naturally) & I just found out I'm pregnant again (5 weeks). I'm kind of hoping I'm not having twins again because it is hard work, but apparently my chances are quite high due to having fraternal twins which means I have released 2 eggs, & also because I'm an 'older mum'.

Hi,
My Boys are Fraternal and IVF we had 2 FET. Our singleton was conceived naturally to our suprise.
Hi there!
We weren't gonna have anymore after 5 (Me 35 & DH 41) so DH had the snip...6mths down the track found
out pregnant with ID twins, to our greatest shock...conceived naturally. ;)
We conceived naturally fraternal twins, but I also miscarried twins a few months before falling preg with Gabe and Tallulah. A lady in the SCU when I was in there also had fraternal twins. Hers were a mix of IVF and natural, they had one implant so thought they were having ID but turned out they had also conceived naturally aswell as they were boy/girl twins, just blessed.:)
