Multiples

Just a question

Has anyone here had their multiples bc of clomid. I know this is a very personal question, and I really don't need the rude remarks. When my DH and I decide to try again, the doc was thinking about putting me on the drug bc my husband's count is low. Nothing with me at all, just him. I am concerned about multiples bc I have heard the pregnancy is very difficult and can result in heartbreak sometimes. I just lost my son at 19 days old, and I don't know if I can deal with something like that again. Thank you ladies.

  • I am so sorry for your loss.  I cannot even begin to imagine. 

    On the clomid question its really hard to say if that is why we had our multiples.  I have a family history of fraternal twins so who knows.  Also you are going t

    I'm unclear as to why you would be put on Clomid when your DH has a low count. My DH has male factor infertility. He went on clomid for a while. My DH's counts were so low that IVF was our only hope. I've heard of some REs doing IUIs with MFI th

  • First off- so sorry for your loss!!! HUGS!!!!

    i agree- i'd be sure you are seeing an RE, not just OB and you ask about other alternatives for that MF issue.  I was on clomid for 6 months and didn't work for me- i mean it did, i produced more

    We lost our 2nd son at 15w4d due to PProm and anencephaly.  I got pregnant with our girls (no clomid) 6 months later.  I had an uneventful pregnancy until 33w6d and they are now happy,

  • Mine are not from clomid, but I do have advice on another part of the post (and I'm also very sorry for your loss)

    I do have to say that just like singleton pgs, multiples are different. Of all the people I know with children (all have singletons

  • Yes clomid can give you multiples. I lost my first set at 23 weeks, my 3 months old son to SIDS last year, so I know your fear. I now have 2 very healthy and happy 2 month olds, who gave me a reason to smile again.

    I wish you the best of luck

    In answer to your question, I believe my twins are a result of clomid.  My RE had said the chances are around 8%, but I've also read that if you are ovulating on your own (which I was

    In answer to your question, my twins are the result of 100mg of Clomid. I am confused on why you would be put on Clomid if you ovulate just fine, but I definitely don't
