    Thanks juniper, both of our FET's so far have been single blasties but I don't know I am kind of leaning towards having two transferred since we haven't tried that yet and this will be our fifth try.

    Myturn was this your first double transfer?

    My second double transfer - both times it was a last minute decision, because the 2nd embryo didn't look 'good' enough to be suitable for freezing.... So. We transferred both. My naturopath thinks that having the double transfer is almost like the 2nd embryo helps the first one along - so you probably only get 1 but it is more nurtured - which kind if feels nice (but could also be a load of crock... Naturopathy doesn't feel very scientific.... But I still keep going. Lol.)

    I know what you mean I see a naturopath also!! I don't know I guess I am unsure if I should do a double, cause would two singe transfers be better or no different to doing the double but then I think who knows if an embryo is going to decide to implant or not. I am so torn!

    FS never really gave me a choice until the embryos were not good enough to freeze...okay to transfer but something about them wasn't freezeable.... Whatever that means.... I always said yes...because even knowing the risks, I'm prepared to have twins, I am getting older so, its one less cycle to pay for... Plus I would love twins... Yes its more of a risk, but plenty of people have perfectly healthy twins....

    Yeah that is what my mum said is people have twins all the time and that isn't even with ivf. My sister knows a couple who had twins with ivf and my husbands boss and his wife are having twins any day now from ivf. You make a good point with the money side of it too! Thanks Myturn! Xx I might even still give my FS a call and have another chat as I don't have to decide until my next scan which is Monday week.
