Would LOVE IT!!!
by: RC

I don't know what the odds are, but I can tell you I personally know 3 different people who have, two have two fraternal sets and one has an identical set followed by a fraternal set.

My husband and I prayed A LOT that we would be blessed with twins and we were for my first pregancy 13 mos ago, we would LOVE to have a set of boys to go with our girls, identical or fraternal suits me fine!!!

Don't you just look at your babies in awe everyday and get excited about how awesome it is that you get to be a part of this!!!

Twice blessed and love it
by: Raising issue

I had twin boys in 1996, a singleton son in 1998 and twin girls in 1999. Both sets fraternal. I feel fortunate they are completely different individuals. Even a redhead in each set.
I always wanted a large family and boom I got one real quick.

Not again please....:)

My baby was 6m old when I fell pregnant with fraternal twins. They came at 36 weeks so the gap is 14 months! I often hear about parents complaining that they have 2 kids under the age of 2 - well we had 3 under the age of 14 months! We'll have another in a few year's time - but another set of twins? Not sure that I'd wish for that - very special but very very hard (ours were also sick a lot). So at the moment I'm doubling up the birth control!!!

chances of twins again...
by: Abby

I miscarried fraternal twins my first pregnancy, and now have twin boys in my second pregnancy.(natural, no fertility) Definitely on birth control now! My ob/gyn says that some women drop 2 eggs every time. Also, I have read several times that you chances increase by 20% each pregnancy of twins.

doc advice
by: casey

i actually talked to my dr. about this & according to him, if you have had identicle then your chances are no more than before & if you have had fraternal then your chances are much greater

Hi there!
by: Carolyn

From what I have read about it's actually really rare to do so. But I, myself have two sets of boy/girl twins. Both are natural and I concieved the second set when my first were only 13 1/2 months old. I actually started out carrying triplets. I just read on yahoo news also, about a lady who is pregnant with her third set naturally. So it's definetly possible!
