I would be interested in getting a quote at least as I am now 6 weeks with unknown quantity of babies (hoping one), having already got one set of twins.....

It's like a gambling scheme - you pay a stake before you've had a scan, and they pay out a larger sum if you have twins!

if you already have fraternal twins, the premium is likely to be high relative to the payout, I'd have thought. Good luck, though, however many there are!

For my 4th pregnancy at the age of 33 only ever having had singletons the premium was huge about £350 for £5k payout!

bloody hell didn't know this existed. Wish I had got some insurance before mine appeared!

Neeerly3, I left a msg for you on the multiples thread, I have an IO dress if you are interested. No payment necessary as it is just sitting here doing nothing. Size 10 I think (will check if you are interested).

the rule with insurance - anything that is likely to happen will cost a lot to insure against. Anything that you are unlikely to claim for will be cheap.

so if you have twins already - partic frat ones you are probably a bad risk !

Just checked. It is actually a size "2" but i am a 10 and it was a good fit for me.

I have a couple of other dresses and other hardly worn stuff, can let you know what I have if you fancy any of it, will chat on FB.

sz 2 = 10 according to IO site, so cool!
