The chance of twins increases with the age of the mother and most of the women celebrities are having them late.

There is a recent (2006) Dutch study indicating that older women may release release more eggs during a cycle than a younger woman. But, I have wondered about the many having a boy and a girl twins. I said something to my husband about it before National Enquirer’s article about IVF. Could just be nature. Although Lisa Marie’s father was a twin, the propensity to have twins would have come from Pricilla and I don’t think Pricilla or her mother had twins. My dad was a twin and his twin sister had twins which were also a boy and girl. The girl did not have any children. The boy had children but no twins because, as you probably know, Diana, the woman is the one who determines if twins will be born by releasing more than one egg. Men always release multiple sperm (unless medically unable to)

Whatever it is, it sure is a baby boom out there. Of course, one thing to think about is that they are at the age when women’s time clocks start going off, and it’s now or never time. I’m sure if we think about it, it’s nothing new under the sun. I remember when Debbie Reynolds, Tony Curtis, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, Lucille Ball were all having little ones. There was the same thing going on, but I think that now there is just so much more publicity about it.

Hi Rainbow , I never thought about this, imagine TWO Elvis”es . Thank you very much. That would have been great if they both had the same voices.
