Just heard from a friend that she is having a boy and a girl.
Anyone suspect PGD?

I'm sure she did PGD. Although I do have a friend who had totally natural B/G twins.

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).

That would be tough to pull off. Think she just lucked out. PGD in infertility is usually used for single issues not panel testing. Doesn't help with pregnancy rates.

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.
(2002) (2005) from 1st marriage. TTC since Aug 2010- Dx: low sperm count and 1% normal sperm. We are giving up and moving on with a baby-free life.
UPDATE: surprise bfp in Feb 2013! It's a BOY!
NEVER GIVE UP HOPE!

I guess we will probably never know for sure. I just find it interesting to ponder. If I had the financial resources, was 43 and had no other children I would definitely put back 1 of each and hope they both take. One pregnancy and you get to experience a boy and a girl! She is very blessed. However it happened, they are going to have an adorable little family!
