My Dr. thought my tubes were blocked so I had a laparoscopy done to find nothing wrong. He told me to continue to try for 3 motnhs which we did. My 3 month chek-up he told me that my body needed a "jump start" and he'd put me on 50 MG of Clomid days 5-9. I asked what my chances of "multiples" were and he said "Not very high as all you need is a jump start" Well I got pregnant the first month on Clomid. 13 weeks pregnant I started having really bad cramps did an ultrasound to find out I had TWO babies and not just ONE! :) I LOVE my babies dearly but I would of preferred to do it one at a time! :) My babies were born at 36 6/7 on Dec. 22, 01 at 1:28 PM and 1:39 PM weighing 6lbs 6oz 20" and 5lbs 2oz & 18". I had a boy and girl! :) Good luck with your decision and keep us posted. :)
