I have been ttc for 15 months. It took 2 years for our first. In Sept. if nothing happens I go back to the doc. I was just wondering how common it is to have more than one baby by using these drugs. I'm ready to try anything at this point. If I were to have multiple babies my dh and I would welcome them with open arms, however, I am afraid we will not be able to give them the individualized attention that we were able to give our daughter now 4.5 yrs old. Also I would definately nurse for the full year as I did with my daughter, and I am afraid with multiples I would not be able to keep up with their demand and feel like I failed as a mother. Please if anyone knows statistics or even personal instances I would appreciate them.

My doc told me when she started me on the lowest dosage of Chlomid that there is a 20% chance of multiples and in the percentage 99% are twins. So we were prepared and thrilled to find that we were in that 20%! Twins is exciting. I plan to breastfeed as well. I will do them both at the same time. At least that's the plan right now. =) I'm just in my ninth week.
