Chance of multiples?

My :D fiance and I tried to plan this one and tried 3 times just to make sure. Is there a chance more than one took on different days?

    Can you elaborate on what you mean by "tried 3 times"? Assuming you mean you had sex 3 times in one day/on O day? Your genetic history or going through fertility treatment is more likely to increase your chance of multiples than the number of times you had sex in one day. While I've read that it is possible that more than one sperm can fertilize the same egg, it is very rare. Rare as in 1% of the population. In a case like that, usually the pregnancy isn't viable anyway because there would be an extra set of chromosomes.

  • The amount of sperm doesn't matter when it comes to multiples. It's the number of eggs you release, which unless you have a family history of fraternal twins, is typically 1/month.

    The chance of identical twins (according to Google) is 1 in 285. But the amount of times you had sex would not have any effect on how your egg split.

  • This is amazing
  • In all seriousness op I think you need to Google conception or pick up a human growth and development book. That's not how it works.
  • Pretty sure OP is a troll.  The account seems to have been deleted since posting this morning.  I sure hope OP is a troll and there isn't actually someone having sex with such a poor knowledge of the female reproductive system.
