Fertility

[PacificBlue]

I just watched a story on the news that says women are 50% less fertile at 35 than they are at 25. It starts to decline at 30 and at a pretty steady pace. *heavy sigh* I'm going to be 31 in a few weeks. I always wanted a family, it just isn't working out that way. DAMN IT!!!

boy do I know about fertility woes...

I myself am trying to concieve. It is such a pain in the ass sometimes to be honest. Especially when I see teenagers all over the place popping out kids they can't, won't or don't take care of. Anyhow, I have found a good site that can help with temp charts, ovulation prediction etc.. www.babymed.com I have just found it and I hope it will help me and the hubby have the little bundle we want so much.

I'm still working on the husband part...granted I know I could have a baby on my own, I just don't want to. I struggle with being single at this age. The most popular question when hooking up for lunch, etc. with my married g/f's is...seeing anyone? Living single in a couples world...not easy. I keep trying to convince myself that it's going to be ok if I never get married and never have children...I'm a great catch, I just don't get it.

Best Wishes on conceiving.

There is a similar study that your chances of conceiving multiples increasing exponentially with your age and your height (go figure).

i'd watch where you wave that thing; trust me

I'm as fertile as the Napa Valley. Want to adopt when I have one?

My mom bore me at the ripe age of 39 years old. Not bad, I say.

Why is it that women who want to have kids can't and women who don't want them get knocked up by looking at dick?

I am annoyed by this shit. I couldn't have a baby if I wanted to, and fortunatly that is the farthest thing from my mind, but I think it sucks that women who really want kids can't get pregnant without the aid of books, videos, timing, fertility drugs etc, and others who are young and too immature are pumping them out like a conveyor belt. That is not only shameful, but I am a distracted overgeneralizer. Did you ever notice that? I just did.

Just shameful.
