Anyone trying for another lo soon?

futuremom2b

Hi!

My twin girls just turned 1 and DH and I are thinking about trying for another lo soon.  It took a lot of time and medical intervention for my girls, but we're just going to see what happens this time around. 

Is anyone trying for another one after their set of multiples?  Or if you already have more than your set of multiples, how how is it??  If all goes well (which things never go according to plan, but humor me), the girls will be around 2 when the new lo is born.  Hopefully, we'll have another one by the time the girls are 3.  So, tell me your experiences if you've already gone through this, or if not, do you plan on having more and when?

I am pregnant right now with our 4th...due sometime later this month, the triplets will be just shy of 2 1/2 when he is born. We MAY try for one more after this too. I can't tell you what's it's like adding another yet, but I can tell you this pregnancy has been a dream compared to the triplets

Good luck!

DH and i have been discussing this as well.  I have no advice but wanted to tell you DH and i are nervous but we figure whats 2 more hahaha!

We were very blessed in that our twins were spontanious and on the 2nd month of TTC.  So we are nervous that if we start TTC #3 now we will get pg right away again and what if its twins again which we know is slim.  but we do realize we were very blessed the first time around and dont want to assume it will happen fast and wait to long this time around so we are debating on starting to TCC w/in 6 mo.

DH had a vasectomy 3 mos after the twins were born. My family has a history of triplets and twins (we drop a lot of eggs in my family), DH has twins in his family (I know it doesn't have so much to do with DH's side but still), we are lucky and blessed to have had our twins...but we are not sure that we could handle another set of multiples...so we decided if we seriously want another in a few years, we will adopt

We'll probably start trying next summer, when the boys are 18 months or so. Figure that's as good a time as any

I want four kids, and I like the idea of having them all close together. We'll probably start trying in another 5-6 months.

We also want three or four kids, close in age. We will probably start thinking about trying again after the twins turn one. But who knows, that may change...we'll see how the next 9 months go first!

This, except it was first time ever having unprotected sex (together).  We are going to actively start TTC after Christmas, though.....when the twins turn 1

I want more!!!

Took me 4 IVFs for these two, so the chances of me getting pregnant on my own is slim to none.  I'm planning on heading back to the RE in a few months and possibly cycle in April/May timeframe.  If that cycle works out, the boys will be 1.5 when the new baby arrives.  I love my boys but I don't think I can do twin toddlers plus twin infants, so I'm thinking hard about doing a SET next time.

Can you tell that I'm a super planner?

We want more!  At one point we said we wanted 5...now I'm thinking it will probably be 4.  Although there are days where 3 sounds good, and 2 sounds even better! 

I wanted our kids to be close in age, about 2 years apart.  So I think we'll probably start trying when the girls turn 1.  Although as I type this now.....it seems too soon!  I keep having to remind myself that pregnancy is 40 weeks long, and also that my pregnancy should be wayyyy different than with the twins!  Like the previous poster, mine were spontaneous and happened on our first try.  But b/c my girls are ID, I'm not concerned about getting twins again.  I feel pretty comfortable about the age gap if we start trying when they are 1.

I wanted the girls to be at least 2 when another baby arrived...dh wanted them 3 years apart so we compromised (I think) at starting to TTC in January... altho we both go back and forth on this a lot...it took us about a year to conceive the girls (spontaneous)...altho I did have a missed m/c and botched d&c in there too...

Good Morning! It took us awhile & w/ help to get our little miracles, but we decided we'll try now w/o help & see what happens (keeping the fingers crossed) I'm 35 & DH is 36.  If we are blessed to be able to concieve another I will be done after that.

DH and I would like to have 3-4 kids, he would like to try for another soon, but I'd like to wait a little until they're more independant, we'l probably try next fall that way the boys will be 2.5 years old or 3 years old- depending when we get pregnant.
