Being pregnant has so far been much easier than GETTING pregnant. An amazing discovery for me, was that you don’t just hop in the sack, get it on and two weeks later find out your pregnant. What am I a virgin? Never had sex-ed? No and no, but it always seemed like everyone was so bent out of shape about using birth control that I sort of formed an assumption over all these years that getting pregnant must be REALLY, REALLY easy. Like don’t even THINK about doing it without birth control!
Now, I suppose there are those that get pregnant “by mistake”. But according to the Infertility Dr. we met with, that’s far from the usual. He says “Yes, mistakes happen, but only when you are repeatedly having sex without birth control. But the ONE time? Not likely, since even when you have sex on the day of ovulation, you have only a 25% chance you’ll get pregnant.” Based on THAT, I’m surprised anyone EVER gets pregnant.
After having begun my journey of getting pregnant with the assumption that I’d only have to do it once without birth control, I have learned A LOT of interesting things along the way and I’ll share them with you here, so stay tuned!
Someone please give this guy a job.
Maybe my neighbor thought I would like a broken pool tool directly out the view of my kitchen window? Two years of looking at this thing and I just might miss it after I steal it and throw it in the street. I said with a smile.
These two are having way too much fun! May you too end 2010 and begin 2011 laughing all the way!
