Fertility Advice
Posted on | December 12, 2009 | 2 Comments
Tonight my father-in-law thoughtfully stated, "look at that sign in the lower right hand corner," while we were waiting to be seated at a restaurant. The sign read 'pregnancy and alcohol do not mix' with a cartoon pregnant belly, a breech baby inside. My eyebrows furrowed & I lost my voice. You see, B told his folks yesterday that we are trying to get pregnant. I carefully added we have been trying since the wedding nearly sixteen months ago. I figured they got the whole it's not happening, inferile thing. Not that hard to figure out, right?
Anywho. This week we have all shared wine and beer, an early Christmas celebration of sorts. I am on my period, to be blunt, and it is not a concern that I avoid alcohol. It isn't much of a concern these days, actually.Yesterday my mom told me, "you need to start wearing baggy pants, that's the problem!" I am so sick of pregnancy advice, people.
I proceeded to have a raspberry beer with my dinner tonight, in spite. And maybe now I will have another? Cheers!
