Conceiving twins!

Yeah the earlier in cycle means more eggs but not very good egg quality, so I didn't want to do cd1 thru 5, and cd3 thru 7 didn't sound so promising the very few that claims si gave them twins took it on cd1-5 and 2-6, so I chose cd2-6 because its a little better egg quality than 1-5, but want vitex because it sways girls, so 2-6 si and then 7 thru O vitex I just didn't want vitex to cancel out more eggs being released(assuming si works) I have been taking vitex since I m/c on july 17th to get my system back in order faster to start ttcing next cycle, so I am thinking to not do vitex next cycle and then just do si (I know probably won't get twins lol I just wanted to give it a try :) )

That may be a great plan, I know of one lady who did exactly that (took vitex nonstop for a few months and then stopped it all together and did soy instead) and did conceive a baby girl.

Be careful what you wish for, ladies. I swayed for twins (not realizing it - we happen to eat alot of sweet potatos and yams that month) and I ended up with a highly complicated triplet pregnancy and lost two of them...I am still overcoming my depression and have major GD because I can't help feeling I lost my girls.

I'm sorry. :(

I did read on another post though that you had identical twins which are often a much more complicated and dangerous situation. These tips will help people conceive fraternal twins, which are def. higher risk than singleton pregnancies and no one should TTC twins lightly of course, but not as high-risk as identical twins can be.

I hope that is not hurtful for you to read and again I am SO sorry for your losses, I just want to have accurate info for everyone.

Twins can def. be a high risk situation to be sure.

Totally know where you are coming from...I just wanted to share "the other side." My situation was very, very rare.

I'm so sorry. That is just heartbreaking.

I took soy with my last attempt, got no twins and a boy :)

I don't like this more +opk days +twins thing. I had 3 days + this month and got some twin predictions from different readers.
ummm can I just get 1 healthy baby boy plz? lol that is if I ever get a bfp ...I have this month and DH says maybe next but we maybe done.
