i just had a D&C due to a blighted ovum pregnancy. i chose the D&C, because i was 10 weeks along and still hadn't miscarried on my own, and couldnt go through every day waiting to miscarry. when i had my first ultrasound, they found that i was having twins. (well, with a blighted ovum pregnancy, there are no babies forming). in a 9 month period of trying to concieve, we finally did, and i was thrilled at the thought of having twins. since this was a blighted ovum pregnancy, and had to have the D&C, is it likley that i can become pregnant with twins again? i am a twin myself, and there are 6 sets of twins on my mom's side of the family, just in her generation. i will still be thrilled even if we never have the chance to have twins again, but i was just wondering, what are my chances that it could happen again?

I don't know the ratio but with the numbers you have probably so. I had a miscarriage at three months after trying for 1 1/2 years , then lost a baby at 5 1/2 months and then my wonderful son who is now 35!!! came along and he has always been such a joy and "my life" ! I am now preparing for his wedding! and darling don't dispair !!! Good luck and have fun getting pregnant !

Usually twins skip a generation but since you already know you're capable of conceiving twins, your chances are higher to begin with. I can't give you an actual number but your chances are higher than the average woman's.
Best of luck!
