We are doing it again for DS2. I cannot fathom doing it for one child and not the other.

We're not. When we did it for DS 5 years ago one of the selling points for DH was that it could be used for a sibling if need be. I had to talk him into the first time and though I did want to for this LO but DH is standing firm on "once is enough".

No, not doing it the second time around, the cost is just too much this time.

Yes, and for the third, too. Never want to explain to one child why we didn't do it for them but did for the others. Also, because some of the benefits are for a sibling, I figured we increase our chance of having matching cells. Mostly it's just the what if...

Ya see this was my thought too... I was all 100% thinking we were going to get it done, but then I though oh... isn't it compatible for a sibling? Wasn't that one of their selling points... so does that mean I don't have to do it?

That really was my main thought too...

So I guess its 50/50
