One egg or two ?

Anybody else pondering this at the moment ?
I keep reading the multiples threads and shitting myself but don't want to end up with none

The probability is only one, but if its two, its rearly not as bad as it seems.

Put it this way, a coupe of years ago I had 3 children (still have) dts were 3, and ds was 6. My sister also had 3 children, 6months, 4 and 7. She said to me, I dont know how you cope with twins, I could'nt do it, so I said to her, I'd rather be in my position than yours, as you have 3 routines as your dc are all different ages, they are are different development changes, with helping themselves get dressed, brush teeth ect, and feeding, I only had 2 routines to follow, as dts were obviously at the samr development stage.

That's true and of course better to have two than none at all.
Are you a very patient, super organised type ?

[whoingodsnameami]

No, lol, but was surprised how I dont struggle to cope like everyone assumes you will, and I am a single mum.

[OHBollox]

Am still very nervous and because it would be a concious decission, to choose twins seems a bit mental lol

But people who conceive naturally can also end up with twins, you have no idea until the scan.

I suppose it depends on whether you can afford to go through it all again - is the miscarriage rate higher with twins?

[OHBollox]

I think there is a definite risk with a twin pregnancy, plus I'd like a homebirth, which seems to be a battle with twins, hard enough with one around here.
Can't afford wo go's really, shouldn't be having one if i'm honest.
Arghhhh it's so hard to decide.
