Of course it's possible we have 2 spiderlings, but just going off the narration toDay it sounds like there's only 1.
The Doctor could have been stung, yeah, but I don't think Miss Sally Moddess would have given us a Stung Doctor to start out with. Didn't Shelob give Sally a short list of names, and Sally picked one to be the first Stung? If she had a choice, I'd guess that Sally make someone who otherwise would have been an ordo be the first Stung, not the Doctor.

But that doesn't change the fact that Boro could well have been high on Shelob's list of people to sting. And, since Sam didn't know that he was the Doctor, it's likely Sam would have tried to cure Boro anyway because of the likelihood Shelob would have chosen him as a Spiderling. In which case, we likely do have two Spiderlings, from Night One and Night Three.
