Hi. A brief overview I'm 21 (he's 22) we've never had our fertility tested but believe its fine.. I have very irregular cycles and am looking at getting meca to fix that. I had a live pregnancy 2 1/5 years ago.

I remember how horrible labour/ birth was. We've come to a tentive comprimse of two girls. I want to get it over in one shot; and that way they'd always have playmates.

I relize there are risks with twins and its extra work and ect. Please no bashing I have beening looking into this for quite a while. We hope to have them in the next few years. Perhaps sooner than later.

What I am looking for is natural (if possible) ways to concieve twins. They don't run in our families, we're not old, over weight, have big families, or any of the other things that help :s.

I have read increased dairy consumption can help and am trying that. A few places I've read say the maca leads to twins, but there hasn't been much to back that up that I've found.

I'm pretty much trying to find one fool-proof way to concieve twins without help from a doctor. (Asking a bit much, eh?) Any help would be greatly apprieated!!!

I have heard that the way to conceive a girl is to have intercourse BEFORE ovulation but my twin girls were a surprise. But you will most likely conceive one. Just get over the twin obsession and try to have a healthy baby. If you are meant to have twins then you will. And labor isn't any better with twins... in fact you have to go through it twice sometimes.

Sphinx:

I forgot to mention in my orginal post when we have sex his juice seeps back out of me almost immediately.. I don't think all of it but still, alot. Is this normal? Does it mean he has low sperm mobility? Will it be a problem for us? Except for the one incedant that got me pregnant years ago (mirical baby from bad circumstances or other..) He's basically been my only sexual encounter

My husband and I have been trying for twins too, so I know how you feel. I am also able to concieve so I turned to natural ways to increase the odd. I'm taking calcium, folic acid, vitamin c, vitamin b6, prenatal, evening prim rose and I'm fixing to start Vitex and Mucinex. Vitex is supossed to increase the chance of hyperovulating but the are a few studies that say it doesn't help. I've also been told sweet potatoes in a juicer, one fresh one every day. About the leaking, I would say you should prop yourself up on a small pillow. And after you have intercourse stay proped that way for maybe 20 minutes.That should help with the sperm getting to the eggs. Good luck!

Justinbaby: Mucinex? What's that? From what I've read Vitex and Maca do the same thing except you both can take maca and it doesn't have any side effects. If you get pregnant left me know if its double :d *baby dusts*

ok... my apologies for being graphic here... ok now that thats out of the way. When sperm is first edjaculated from the penis, it is a thinner consistency. After a couple of minutes, it gets thicker (coagulates) into more of a jelly-ness inside of you. So, what you want to do is stay laying down afterwards for 10 minutes or more with a pillow under your bottom. If you did not have an orgasm during sex, then I would recommend using this time to masturbate until you have an orgasm... see, I told you I was going to be graphic but there is a reason. When you reach climax, your uterus contracts and creates a suction-like movement that sucks the sperm up (picture the cervix acting like a straw and the uterus is like a bulb syringe, the contractions of the uterus suck up the semen in this way.) Therefore, you are more likely to conceive if you reach climax also! And the more intense the climax the stronger the contraction. Most women who can have orgasm have much more intense ones by masturbation.
