IS that true? I want twins so bad!

Answer 1

I have no idea if it is true... I got pregnant with twins on my 4th cycle after stopping the pill. I wanted to wait 3 months to get everything out of my system, then we tried and it was twins.

Answer 2

you will get what the good Lord gives you. you can't do anything to improve your chances on getting a boy or girl let alone twins.

Answer 3

It might be...My SIL was on the depo shot and she conceived twins immediately after coming off it,one boy and one girl.I guess it is always a possibility,but don't count on it.

Answer 4

There have been studies (Harvard University was involved in a few of them) that show an increased chance for twins . . . no guarantees of a single pregnancy let alone a twin pregnancy.

The pill suppreses ovulation . . . some studies show that going off of it may but the body into overdrive leading to more than one egg being released at ovulation.
