Q: Twins from two different fathers possible ?

I'm pregnant, but I have this problem with my boyfriends ex. She claims that she is pregnant with his baby, but she's already told everyone that it isn't his. She said that she just thinks that he'll be a better father figure. Well, she just found out that she is having twins. Now she is trying to say that she is having twins with two different fathers. Now, I said that that wasn't possible..... Is it??? Can you please explain, so I can print it out to her and show her proof if it is or isn't? Thanx... Mr. Green

It is possible, but not very likely. What happens is she releases two eggs. She has sex with one guy who fertilizes one egg, has sex with another who "grabs" the other egg. The chance of this happening is slim, but indeed possible.

Really??? That's just sounded impossible, but the wierdest things can happen. I wonder how many times this has happened? But, anyways, whatever she is saying, she couldn't tell until she has the babies. But I think she is just saying all this because she wants him. Smile

Hey Girl
Okay, this female your are having trouble with. First off, hate to be mean about it, but what was she doing sleeping with 2 guys at the same time? Yes I feel for her cuz she is pregnant but at the same time, she is putting you in an awkward position. I hope you and your boyfriend is talking about this. One you should know how he feels about what is being said. And about her. Two, you need to know where you both stand. And three, honestly, I don't know if the twins by two different fathers is possible but you are right, it sounds like she wants your man again. If you ever want to talk, write me anytime.

This is an old post but I wanted to respond to MandeeMoo. It's called superfundation. For it to occur the woman would have to ovulate twice (this is the same thing that happens with fraternal twins) but then she would have to have sex with two or more men within a few days of ovulation. One man fertilizes one egg and the other man fertilizes the second egg.
There was a case where a man's mistress became pregnant with triplets. I believe he was in England. He had a paternity test done on all three babies and found that he was only the father of one of the babies.
it is EXTREMELY rare but it does happen.
There was another case where a fertility clinic mixup caused one of a woman's eggs to be fertilized by the wrong sperm. She wound up having twins. One was white and the other had been fathered by a black man. Their names are Koen and Tuen Stuart.
