[quote=Anonymous]Mother of twins here, mine are from DE.

This is a tough call OP, and should be informed by the quality of your eggs/the quality of the blastocysts/your physical health/your comfort level in having twins etc...

There has been some discussion of this issue on here in recent threads, so it might be worth a search.

If you were my friend you probably wouldn't need to ask what I think, as you would already know that I am so thrilled to have two beautiful children.  And I SOOOO wish I had them one at a time, a couple of years apart.

Twins are fascinating, and amazing to watch develop, and fun for others to know, and instantly get you into a great community of parents of multiples, and on and on...

They are also hard on the body when you're pregnant, and very at risk for early delivery and related complications.

They are incredibly challenging to care for - at least in the early years.  It is hard on a marriage, hard on the individual parents, stress producing, guilt and anxiety provoking, all consuming, etc...

If I had to do it over I would have transferred my blasts one at a time.  I'd had multiple prior failures, was anxious to be out of the IF world, we wanted two kids if possible, etc...

So my advice is one at a time.  If it doesn't work you can cycle immediately again w/ your remaining frostie.

Good luck![/quote]
