Common sense advice from a not-so-smug married November 10, 2006

A few weeks ago I was eating lunch with one of my married girlfriends and we were talking about children. I had just seen my baby cousin that weekend and I told her that lately I’d been feeling very maternal. I was smiling at and flirting with every baby I saw in the line at the grocery store or as I walked through the mall.
“It is a bit disconcerting,” I said. “I see babies and I just want to hug them and kiss them and play with them and love them. I don’t know what’s come over me.”
“Oh, honey, I wouldn’t worry about that,” she said, very matter of factly, in between sips of Diet Coke. “You’re probably just ovulating.”
Charming, but single 
we all have those days when we have nothing new to post …
recently i been eating a lot more than usual and a lot more cranky. my friends told me the exact same thing. i think i’m pregnant.
I watched a segment on Good Morning America one morning; someone had done a study on women and how they dress more flashy and show more cleavage during ovulation than during the rest of the month. Isn’t that interesting?
They showed these sort of “before and after” pictures of the same woman when she was ovulating — lacy, low cut shirt, shorter skirt and big jewelry — and when she wasn’t — high colared shirt and long pants. Isn’t that fascinating? Maybe she was wanting a baby in that lacy top, too! 🙂
Interesting because I’ve been having similar maternal feelings. Glad I read this!
