Wait a minute. Is Jennfier Aniston pregnant with twins, or is Angelina Jolie pregnant with twins? Ok, forget the twins -- is either one of them even preggo, period? I'm no idiot, but these rumors are getting harder and harder to keep straight. It's almost as if the media just can't resist trying to peg one of these gals as being knocked up. Huh. I wonder why on earth they'd do something like that?

It wouldn't be the shock of the century if either of them was actually expecting twins, but how bizarre would it be if both rumors turn out to be true and Jen and Angie are pregnant at the same time? OMG. Does anyone else see the beginning of what could be a totally beautiful friendship? Double twin pregnancies may be just the thing to mend all fences between these two and have them hugging it out like BFFs.

On any given day of the week, tabloids claim that Angelina Jolie is either pregnant or way too skinny for her own good. Does anyone else see a huge contradiction here? The rumor mill seriously cannot get enough of all things Angie, and it seems like speculation about whether or not her body is growing or shrinking for various reasons is constantly plastered all over the front of gossip magazines.

The latest buzz is a new rumor in OK! Magazine that Angelina is, indeed, pregnant, and this time it's with twins. If by some stretch of the imagination this story does turn out to be true, Angie will go from being mother of six to a mother of eight. Could she potentially be the next Kate Gosselin?

I love twin pregnancies and twin moms. I am one, so of course I do. But what I love even more is when there is a great story that comes along with the twin pregnancy or birth -- something that defies the odds (or that one doctor I had who told me how unnatural it was for me to even be pregnant with twins). So when I hear about twins being born over six pounds each or a twin mom able to have her twins vaginally, I feel like she has done twin mamas proud. But Brighid Rosputni took the pride of having twins many, many steps further.

She had an all-natural birth. Both babies were breech. And she had them in different years.

Twins are fascinating, plain and simple. From being able to create secret languages to the eerie intuition they have about one another, there's a bond there that's unlike any other. I think anyone who isn't a twin has wished for one at some time or another; I know I have. But just when you thought twins couldn't get any more fascinating, a new study shows just how early that bond may begin and how deep it may be.

Whereas twin pregnancies are often considered more risky, when it comes to IVF, twins actually fare better. According to Reuters Health, in a recent Spanish study, researchers found that twin embryos had an 83 percent rate of "survival to birth" as opposed to a 76 percent rate for a single embryo. The researchers believe that one embryo may save the other's life before they're born. They believe the stronger twin may actually help the weaker twin.

How cool is that?

For seven years, Michal Friedman and her husband Jay Snyder had been trying to have children. Being parents was their greatest dream, and they did everything they could to achieve it. So you can only imagine how incredibly excited they were when they found they were pregnant with not one, but two babies.

Though she had some morning sickness, it was a healthy pregnancy, and those nine months were the happiest of the couple's life. As the babies were breech, a C-section was scheduled for November 28 when she was 38 weeks pregnant. On November 25, the day after Thanksgiving, her blood pressure was elevated, so they decided to do the C-section early. It was then that she gave birth to two healthy babies -- Jackson James and Reverie Vivian Snyder.

But there were complications. And just four and half hours after bringing her beautiful twins into the world, she herself was taken from it and from them.

The end of an era is upon is, ladies. No more Octo-mom, no more Kate Plus 8, and no more risky pregnancies for a huge number of IVF pregnancies. At least if other fertility clinics follow the lead at the University of Iowa where a study found that today women under the age of 38 have just as good of a chance of getting pregnant using one embryo in the transfer as multiple embryos.

Unless you're one of those people who dream about having twins, triplets, or even more, this is fantastic news. After all, women carrying multiples are at an increased risk for diabetes, having premature babies, or babies born with cerebral palsy. Cutting down these risks for women who are already under bodily stress is an admirable goal. So let's hope fertility clinics embrace this idea, and we can all stop looking at moms of twins and wondering what the story is. You know, if you do that sort of thing.

The birth of a healthy baby is always a miracle, doubly so with twins. So I don't know what to call Florida mom Andreea Barbosa's birth to twins from two separate uteruses. A Miracle Squared??

Just to add some perspective, only about 1 in 2,000 women have a double uterus, and there have only been about 70 to 100 known cases worldwide of such women carrying a baby in each uterus at the same time. Usually, these pregnancies aren't successful.

So how did Andreea Barbosa and her husband Miguel get so lucky??

Whoa. I don't know why I never really considered the possibility of this kind of thing happening before, but I was fairly shocked when I heard about what happened to Canadian surrogate mom Cathleen Hachey. The 20-year-old woman was 27 weeks into her pregnancy -- with twins -- when she got some very unexpected news from the British couple who'd signed a contract promising to adopt the babies.

The couple was in the process of splitting up, unfortunately.

And oh, by the way ...

Cathleen could keep the babies. Now that they weren't going to be together, the couple didn't really want to be parents anymore.

Oh. My. God.

And it gets worse! Wait until you hear the way the intended parents broke the bad news!
