How to increase your chances of getting pregnant with twins.
What is the best way to get pregnant with twins naturally?
Why would you want to have twins?
Both of the babies we want with just one pregnancy. You get one maternity leave, diapers and toilet training are done at once -
Twice the college bill, at the same time.
How can you have twins naturally?
Marry a man with twins in the family, preferably a twin himself.
What else?
There are areas of the world where people are much more likely to have twins.
What is their secret?
It is usually a diet heavy in yams that naturally carry chemicals that mimic estrogen. The women are far more likely to release multiple eggs each cycle.
I don't know if I could handle eating yams all the time.
Move to Candido Godoi in Brazil. The village has 38 sets of twins out of 80 families, and about 10% of the births are multiples.
No, thank you. I'm not even going to Rio for Carnival.
There's not much else you can do naturally, except take fertility drugs.
Would that increase the odds of identical twins?
No, fertility treatments and natural remedies only increase the odds of fraternal twins. The more eggs, the more likely you are to have more than one baby.
I've seen families with multiple cases of twins.
The trait is usually passed through the woman's side, and a family with twins has two people to pass it on. And identical twins are way more likely to be female, carrying the trait forward another generation.
What else could up my age of twins?
The odds of multiples goes up with age, to offset the decline in egg quality.
So my best bet to have twins is eat lots of yams, or move -
Or wait until you're 38 and hope your ovaries spit out two eggs to offset your old age.
I'd rather not take the risk of my eggs being over easy or overdone.
