    Thanks guys..not really that sad though:o, just a fact for our family! Me & my bro are both the surviving twins(2 seperate pgs) from when Mum was up t'duff with us...we ate the others:eek::eek:
    Surviving twins would be ace:D BUT I don't want an odd number of kids:o sooooooo..we'd have to go on to have number 4:eek::D and if it was twins again...we're screwed:rotfl::rotfl:

    My nephew is a surviving twin and my sister also miscarried another set of twins.

    I have an image of you surrounded by an endless number of children in your attempt to get an even number! :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Awwwwwww Lily how cute :D Twins is my biggest fear for when I next get pg:o Twins happen quite often in my family but only 1 ever survives past a few weeks old...if they make it that far!! :(

    Aw, that's sad. :( My aunties are twins and DH's mum is a twin and I think DH's sister was meant to be a twin but the other baby died. :(

    I don't think there is much of a chance that I would have twins.

    Awww that is cute! That's so sad about the twins in your family Confuzzled, I can understand why you're worried! :(

    There are loads of twins on my Dad's side but none on my Mum's so I doubt I'll have them... it'd be quite nice to have a boy and girl though, get it all over and done with in one go! :)

    Yes, def! Two in one go! :)

    Its more common than people think, starting off with 2 and finishing with 1 if you're lucky:)

    Don't joke about my even number quest....knowing my luck I'll end up with 15 rugrats before my womb gives up the ghost:p:rotfl:

    Yeah so I've read. I would love twins but if I'm honest I'd give anything to have even just one would right now :o

    Haha! I have a thing about the number three - I hate anything in threes. Even if I eat biscuits I have to have either two or four! :rotfl: DH want's three kids but there is no way that's happening, if we have a third then we will be having a fourth too! :p

    Tell him 3 is almost like child cruelty!!!:p There's always 1 that gets left out of things(I'm the middle of 3:o) and there aren't that many rides that allow on 3 at the same time, usually me or my sis got left on our own or 1 of us went on a ride twice coz my lil bro wouldn't be left alone! and not that many places do family as 5, there are more now but still not enough....for this reason I have a feeling we'll be sticking at 2, plus we couldn't afford the childcare for more than that and theres no way I'm giving up work:o:o *Bad Mummy* lol

    I'm ok. It's been a tough few weeks but we are both doing good. Still haven't had a full negative pg test but we've decided to get straight back on the BDing waggon as I think I have ov'd this week so fingers crossed we will get lucky.

    Ahhh twins. POssibility here too as my Mum was pregnant with twins once, but sadly lost them, and my brother and his wife have non identical twins (boy and a girl).

    OH is hoping for twin boys, so it's over and done with in one go. I don't think he has ANY idea how much hard work twins are, whereas I have as my brother and his family stayed at my parents house for the first 6 weeks after their birth (and I was still living at home at the time). They are EXHAUSTING, gorgeous! But exhausting! lol

    HUGS Emsbet! xx

    COMP - Your wedding day sounds fab! As does everyone elses! Ooohh, I loves me a good wedding, I does! :D

    Got my fingers crossed for you too Emsbet!

    I've got an appointment with the doctor this morning to talk about coming off the pill and ask about my rubella immunity (thank you Tommy's book!), I'm trying to think of sensible things to ask rather than just blurting out, 'I wanna baby!' but coming up blank! :)
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!
