  • I would prefer a single birth. I think I would be a nervous wreck throughout a multiple pregnancy.

    However, once they were here I would be absolutely thrilled and love it.

  • DH is a twin, so we're somewhat aiming for twins, especially with our current IF issues. If I do finally get pregnant, there's no telling if and when it would happen again, so if we get two on the first go, then we'd be really excited, minus the risks and complications of course.

  • DH loves the idea of twins. I however am freaked out by the thought of twins. I'm not against it since I'm crazy and thawing all three of my embryos with the full intentions that if they all make it they will all be transferred back. The risk of a twin or triple pregnancy scares me but the raising twins or triplets does not. I have tons of family and friends that would help us. At this point after over 2 1/2 years of trying to get pregnant I'll take whatever I can get. Whatever god gives me I don?t care I?ll make it work I just want to be a momma.

  • We aren't shooting for twins because I would be concerned about my health as well as the health of the babies, however, when we do IVF, I think we will be transferring 2 embryos. I don't want to have to go through it more than once if I don't have to. Dh and I have talked a lot about this and we have a lot of family in the area. We would welcome twins with open arms if it were to happen that way. We would have no shame in it as many of our relatives and close friends know about our IF struggles.

  • I feel really good about it, but then again I am biased. I am a twin myself and my parent had me through IVF. They were older and it was experimental on older people at the time (there was even a book written about it...lol). So yeah....IT IS 2 BLESSINGS Big Smile ....I know I personally run a high risk of twins because every generation has one set and my generation hasnt yet....and I think it would be wonderfull <3
