Does anyone have 2 sets of naturally concieved twins? I am curious to know what the chances are of me having twins again? My 1st set were fraternal, natural. I think a doc told me 1 in 200 or something but from things I have read it may be higher.. (I would secretly love another set of twins, my body probably wouldn't though!)
A woman who lived up the street from me had 5 boys- with two sets of twins - one fraternal and one identical set. Man was it hard to work out who was who as they were all very similar looking LOL. They are all adults now.
My SIL naturally conceived two sets of twins but sadly lost one. I think the doctor told her that she always ovulated two eggs at a time and virtually said that whenever she conceived, she would ALWAYS have twins. That's secondhand though so I'm not sure how accurate that is!
Wow.. I was on another forum (for multiples) and a few of them have had 2 sets.. Funny thing is I had a really long cycle and had trouble falling pregnant so thought it was a miracle.. Maybe not.. I guess what will be will be.. I would be grateful to just have 1, but to get another shot at being a twin mummy would be good.. I feel ripped off!
Im pregnant with triplets this time round (have a 13 month old as well) and they say if I get pregnant again its more than likely that Ill have multiples again cz I release two eggs every time I ovulate.
I don't know much about it, but my sister taught some kids at her school that were in a family of ten kids......3 sets of twins! all natural, that lady is amazing.
I went to school with a family who had 1 set of triplets, 1 set of twins and one single child. I believe they were all naturally conceieved (this family was a bit of a gossip item when they arrived at my school, lol).
i have a set of twins
my SIL has two sets and lost a 3rd set- she has also gone on to have 2 singletons as well-she is a twin herself as well. They said to her after she had conceived three sets that most likely all other pg would be twins- but the last two that i know of have been only one at a time!
my DH great grandma had 3 sets as well
my grandma only had one set
cousins, aunties and even 2nd cousins on both sides of my DH family have all had twins as well
the genetic link to twinning is amazing and very strong!
its really strange when someone has one baby at a time in our families lol
my twins thought and assumed that everyone had two babies at a time until I had to explain that it wasnt the norm for most families.
We were told that it was a 1 in 4 chance after one set and a 50% chance after two sets and even higher after 3 sets
Good luck!!!
A lady at work had twins boy/girl but they passed away at 36 weeks due to a liver complication (the mother) she was very ill for a long time afterwards
6mth later she was pg again................twins again
