Hi, I used to post here (but forgot my login!) 9 years ago when first ttc! I now have 7 year old identical twins from our first round of ivf
we both really want another child, but have hit a roadblock.. since transferring a single embryo last time and ending up with twins, we have been scared to try again in case it happens again. I wouldn’t change a thing with my girls, but we really don’t have the space in our house for another set, we simply cannot move house, and I had a really traumatic pregnancy last time, plus ending up with a long nicu stay. It was a lot, and although I know I would do it again, my husband is too terrified. We have had our embryos frozen all this time knowing we would eventually want another.. now here we are, ready, had our consultation with our clinic, but my husband struggling to move forward with it, and I get it.. it’s scary, it’s a risk, but I don’t know what to do now. Do we just not fulfill our dream? If twins happened again, would he resent, and if we don’t go for it, would I have regret..?
Sorry I’ve rambled, I don’t expect answers of course, I just don’t have anyone to talk to. Has anyone had twins and then a singleton? I know chances of twins are low, but I never expected them the first time! I’m at a loss
