Did anyone have two follicles mature and then ended up with twins??? I have two follicles 14 and 15 mm...I have another appt on Friday to measure again and trigger if they are ready. I am just wondering how high the possibilty of twins is??? I guess I wouldn't mind either way since it has been so hard to conceive, but I know most odds say 4-10% for clomid users...

I had 2 follicles and am 15 weeks with twins. I had a third follicle that was slightly smaller that may or may not have released. My RE gave us a 10% chance of twins so i was guessing it wouldn't happen, but it did.

Wow, so I guess there is a chance for sure!! When did you find out you were having twins???

Hello, I had IVF with two embryos and have just found out. You have a scan on 6-7 weeks (since your last period), they then can detect one or two hearbeats. If you do get twins from more than one egg, I think they are non-identical.

actually just found out they could be identical but there's a smaller chance

We had an ultrasound at 6 weeks and were able to see 2 sacs with heartbeats.
