    wife is sure it will be triplets which is completely impossible without a night nurse or au pair or some thing which is a huge drain on the finances

    No it's not. One lot of relatives has triplets and another has quads. Neither had very much in the way of help other than family but they managed because people do when they don't have much choice.
    (Although anyone getting pregnant now panics in case the numbers keep increasing and the next one gets quins.)
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    This is actually my fourth pregnancy. with all the others I was not showing until well after twelve weeks even with the twins and I would be happy to just insure against triplets as twins I could hopefully manage with. Is there any way of betting against it at william hill or something
    Officially identical twins is not hereditary and therefore should not really increase my chances of having more twins. (They had TTTS so they are definitely identical)
    What is TTTS?
  • twin to twin transfusion syndrome
    look it up
  • I smell a troll.
  • Seriously, can anyone help me with this

    No one can help. As stated before, it is highly unlikely anyone would want to insure your wife at this stage as it would be possible to already know that you are expecting triplets. How can they prove you haven't gone for a private scan already?

    Still, if you think it can be done, go down the list of all main insurers and see what they say. Otherwise, I would let it rest until you get your 12 week scan and start planning afterwards.
