"I was on the pill for several years when we decided I would go off the pill, wait 3 months, then we would try for a baby. I got pregnant the first week.
The doctor suggested that maybe the reason I had fraternal twins was because even though we had waited 3 months, my cycle wasn't 'back to normal', and I was obviously dropping multiple eggs." -- Cheyenne
