Just to say I get that too (not TTC just noticed you post). Interested to see if you get an answer.

I think I did the month I conceived. Had a positive result on an ovulation stick at about the right time in the month (my cycle was irregular though) so we got our baby dancing shoes - however, according to the scan dates etc, actually conceived DS 2 weeks after this time so I am guessing yes you can.

Yes and I have two non-identical daughters to demonstrate the point. Incidently, ovulating twice is hereditary (so non-identical twins run in families).

Even freakier, if you ovulate twice, it is possible to have sex on different days with different men and have 'twins' who have different fathers.

Good stuff eh!
