What's the name??

I know someone who is expecting and they have it tied down now to two names each (boy or girl), but the bigger news is they are hoping for twins. Using a fertility drug, why is it a better chance of multiples? I always wondered that but never really knew why. Maybe they can use all names if they end up with four!

That would be awesome... to use all the names but a handful if they had 4 kids at once. Wow! Nanny city! I always wanted twins too but we did not get them.

I think having that many kids a nanny is not just a blessing but a must have. I could not even imagine the mornings in a house when you are outnumbered by little ones!

Wow, I can't imagine having four kids at once, and still get enough sleep at night. I know kids are a blessing but.... Anyway, congrats to them, hope they end up with the number of kids they could handle properly.

Someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the reason fertility treatments cause so many multiple births is because they implant more than one fertilized egg at a time. So, it ups the odds of twins, triplets, etc. Again, I'm not sure that is completely right.

That would be great, but it's kind of unlikely to have quadruplets. However, there is a big chance of triplets through fertility treatments. I can't imagine how happy those parents could be to have more children than names...
