Yeah. Say you want to make 2 overlords and 4 roaches (assuming 4 is hotkey for hatches). If you do this:
4svrrrrv
then you have 6 eggs that will be selected, which include 2 overlords, and you don't want that. Instead do...
4svv4srrrr
Now you'll only have 4 eggs selected (the roaches you just made).
The other way you can run into problems is if you accidentally add all larvae to your control group (this happens to me sometimes) - then whatever units wind up being produced from those larvae (like overlords) will be in your control group later on. If that happens, you hold ctrl+shift and then click one of the larvae in the unit view - that will remove all units of that type (in this case, larvae) from your selection. Then hit ctrl+1 to re-set your group, minus the larvae.
