I take it that you have been blessed with twins.

I wouldn't trade my twins for anything. They are a lot of fun now that they are old. However, they got sick at 6 weeks old and almost died. It wasn't a twin thing. They're identical and so they are both genetically inclined to have lung problems. They both got Respiratory Synctial Virus (RSV) and almost died. It was very hard to have 2 sick babies.

We were very lucky ours weren't preemies because they can have lots of problems.

There are just so many risks that it is not something that I would choose.

I wouldn't even mind another baby now, but I'm older and my risk for having twins is high now. I won't risk it.

Yes my B/G twins will be 17 in July and my oldest will be 19 in Sept. I had 3 in diapers & 3 on bottles,it was the hardest time in my life. MY hubby had to work 2 jobs just to keep us in formula! . It's not easy multiple births!
