I had the fortune of getting two offers around the same time. That made me a little more comfortable, and I negotiated a little. I wound up taking the one that paid more. But I definitely would have learned more at the other one (and the pay difference was not huge).
However, I don't regret it. I learned valuable lessons about what I do and do not want.
My advice: do negotiate. Have a picture in your head of what would have to be true about that company to make you happy to work there. Go into the interview and adjust that picture accordingly.
Don't worry yourself to death about whether you negotiated "enough" or "too much" (you didn't). Just try not to accept something that won't make you happy. Of course, some people may have to do that. But keep moving!
