Time slipping away again...

[angharad_gam]

I had one of those 'hmmm, maybe I'm pregnant' moments recently. They happen with disturbing regularity when you're, well, irregular. I'm not, thank god, although there's always a slightly bittersweet mix of relief and regret after such moments - don't get me wrong, it's mostly relief.

This time, however, it occurred to me that I'm really getting to the age where the chances that I might randomly get pregnant are not so high. I've been blithely going about assuming I am as fertile as I was when we conceived Ashwyn (which was pretty fertile really), but that was seven years and most of my thirties ago. I think perhaps next time I will skip the 'hmmm, maybe I'm pregnant' part and go straight to 'hmmm, hormones be wacky again'. Perhaps.

But spare a thought for those couples who would dearly love "to be pregnant" but can't.

Thanks for your comment random stranger who knows nothing about my life, but don't assume I don't have an inkling of that pain too...
