1st sorry about the length of this post,
I posted this on the O-questions board too, but I did not say that I am making my 1st attempt at trying for a girl, so it makes this even more complex as I have been getting my salt fix (withdrawls) this week.

I am a bit freaked out right now b/c I am 6dpo (day 20/28) verified by history, o-pains, cm, and opk...so I am very anxiously waiting and interpreting every twinge. I have been cramping and having COPIOUS amounts of cm so since I had an opk left, I figured I would pee on a stick to figure out what was going on and it came up with another DARK positive LH...What does that mean? If I dtd again will we have a higher chance of twins, (I had a non-pg ultrasound of my ovaries b/c of serious cramping a few months back and the tech said I had a lot of follicles at ov.) Does this mean the last opk was wrong? (It was just as dark) I am so confused...please help me figure this out.

Would you wait til tonight and make an additional o+12 (my mid-cycle attempt was freq. bd, ALL supps, sud, douche, and 3 day cut off). I guess I think I could handle if it was 1 boy...but twin boys would set me over the edge...BUT how cool would twin girls be??? Who knows maybe I screwed up my 1st attempt, maybe this is just something normally in a cycle...oh, I need some guidance!

I have posted 1 or 2 times in the past, but I am mostly a lurker, so I guess I could have introduced myself before the post's closing, but I am Julie, I live in MI, I am a teacher, have a wonderful DH and 2 beautiful dc.

Thank you so much...

Julie, women can ovualte twice in one cycle, though it is rare. a friend of mine has boy/girl twins and her OB suspects she O'd twice the month she conceived because right from the very beginning of her pg, the twins were at different stadges. Meaning, at her 1st u/s, there was only one sac visable. Since she didnt' have identical twins, and a baby appeared later, her dr is very confindent she O'd twice the month she concieved. So, I'd again. Nothing wrong with boy/girl twins!

I have not been on here in a while, but I wanted to respond after seeing this post as I just had b/g twins and I was also ttc a girl. I did an 0+12 attempt and I think I o'd a 2nd time and I will SWEAR that the boy was concieved before the girl. She always was smaller on the u/s by a couple of days and only one sac was seen before the second one appeared. I had such a strong boy feeling when I saw my first u/s and then when they saw that second sac I knew that was my girl. I will never know which was which, but thats what my heart told me. Good luck....hope for b/g twins and go for it....they are too much fun!!! Joy

I know I o'd twice as I always do. But our first US tech said the boys were 10 hours of each other so it can't be that I o'd twice and got them. My entire PG they were an ounce or two off each other and it was inconclusive if they were frat or ID.

I hope you get what you want. B/B twins are great! I love it!

Yes, you can O twice in a month. However, you should know that if you are pg, and you take an opk test, it will show up positive.
