Pregnancy Info HOME

Don't know about that ;o) and I didn't specialize in OB/Gyn but I do know that yes, you can feel ovulation pains from both ovaries if you ovulate from both. Women who are being monitered are sometimes told by their doctors that both ovaries are releasing from the effects of the drugs. Mama's of twins I've talked to have reported it too - that ovy pain on both sides. I've just finished my first round on Clomid (waiting, waiting) and had pain on both sides myself this time.
As for symptoms, every pregnancy is different and twins are do different but yes, women who have had both twins and singles do report that they had symptoms either sooner in the twins pregnancies or to a greater degree in them. Bad morning sickness and exhaustion in weeks 5-7 are the usual complaints. Of course, some women just sail through with nothing much in the way of symptoms too, lucky things.

It's not that it takes 6 days to conceive but that conception is a process that completes over the course of a week or so. A Fertilized Embryo typically is moving into the uterus about 80 hours after Mr. Spermie did the deed. Implanting takes another day or two. So yes, from that 'conception' intercourse until the embryo is rightfully imbedded in the uterine wall can take up to 6 days. But the window of when to time that conception intercourse is still much smaller - your egg is there and viable for 24 hours, 48 at the outside so you have 2 days to do the BD and conceive and then it can be up to 6 days after that before baby is burrowing in for the 9 month wait. Does that explain it better?
