Anyone suspect PGD?
I'm sure she did PGD. Although I do have a friend who had totally natural B/G twins.
They're all getting Twins B/G, I'm sure she did PGD.
I didn't even know she was pregnant lol!
I don't think B/G twins is a sign of PGD necessarily . . .because that means you're putting in both genders, and they obviously don't necessarily both (or all) stick. I think celebs who do IVF for a first baby, might include PGD and take a peek at gender to balance the odds a little (e.g. let's transfer one of each).
I agree :) I have a a couple friends who did IVF (no PGD) due to infertility and lucked out with B/G twins.Quote:

A good friend of mine is a back up dancer for her. I will ask him, he is actually coming back to town to visit as they are all on, um, maternity leave so to speak! She is really cool apparently and shares and hangs a lot with her dancers, and I bet he'll know.
same here and i so don't care lol , anyway it could be just natural b/g pregnancyQuote:

She is very blessed. However it happened, they are going to have an adorable little family!
I so think it was PGD
Well, its tough to say of she did IVF or not, but if she did, I just think, when you have that kind of money, of course you're going to do PGD. They probably chose the best boy and best girl to make it more natural like 50/50 odds and they both stuck.
She released the names: the boy is Morroccan and the girl is Monroe.
My friend said she did do IVF....she and Nick have been trying for many years, and she actually had several m/c while on tour, so they went the IVF route. He didn't know about the PGD, but you know what, I would if it were my only shot at kids and I wanted both and was filthy rich. I am so happy that she has her precious babies now, though! Good for her!
WTH?? Morroccan?Quote:

I would be so livid if I was them!!!
I know, right? Maybe they'll call him Rocco or something.Quote:
