No regrets, but it has been crazy ever since.
Same here. Not sure how old you are, but I was 34 when I spontaneously conceived twins. They're more likely as you get older - rats fleeing a sinking ship and all that. Statistically still not common, but it's something to think about!
I was that 34 too and the first set of twins in both sides of the family for multiple generations! It was quite the shock
Funny enough, I was 34 when I got pregnant with the triplets. Lucky age?

Wow! Congrats. Hope you're enjoying your big family!
Something I could never ask in person, but I can on an anonymous forum - if you're offended, I apologize, but I figure you can always just not respond. Did your doctors bring up/advocate for selective reduction? If so, how strongly?
No. I didn’t even find out until 15 weeks. My doc made a passing comment that other docs would have suggested it but honestly I clearly could handle triplets. My second kid was a 9 1/2 pound homebirth so triplets sucked but it was fine.
