Well I’ve posted before about me not being a baby making machine. How I felt I was being pressured into having children by those around me.
I’ve also posted about my husband having cancer.
I told my husband if the results of this last doctor’s visit came out cancer free, we can start makin’ them babies he wants so badly.
Guess what.
They did. So after the tears of joy passed, I suddenly realized it was going to be time to pay up. After I get this carpel tunnel taken care of, I guess a new kind of fun will begin.
Oddly enough I thought the idea of trying to have a baby would be like jumping off a bridge scary, but actually I’m excited. Just don’t tell my husband heh. Wouldn’t want to make him THAT happy
I dunno if you posted this to solicit reactions or support or what. My two cents? It’s your body. You didn’t make a deal with anyone. It’s his cancer, it’s your marriage but it is your body alone.
If the idea of childbirth has so much baggage associated with it, then I would encourage you to seek counselling and work through the process before you just up and go for it because of some comment you made in the past.
All this drama of him having cancer, and then to find out it’s been removed for the most part, made me realize that I do love this man and want to have his children.
The thought of having children used to terrify me. The thought of losing my husband terrified me more, and now I see how immature I was being about the whole thing. It’s made me see things differently and not to always think about the “what if’s”
I was trying to convey this in a joking manner but I guess I didn’t.
For what little it may be worth, I got it. Viewpoints and such differ; some folks may find your words silly or offensive or any number of other things.
About this deal with the Devil…did you find out which celebrity is going to croak in the next year? If so, could you email it to me by 11pm, december 31.
Having a baby may very well be the most irritating, annoying, time-consuming, exhausting, expensive, frightening, nerve-wracking, stressful–and absolutely freaking wonderful thing that ever happens.
You’ll make a great mum–and hey, you’ve got us for advice. (You’ve even got lieu for advice on the baby’s poop! :D)
I totally got what you were trying to say. And I am so happy for you both. Many good wishes to you, and may you have a grand time (and a successful time) with this whole baby-making project!
It’s not of little worth. I should just remember that type, and actually speaking can have different effects on the same phrase. It’s all good though, I know I was just being looked out for by Cartooniverse She/he(sorry I don’t know!) was just trying to say no matter what I’ve said before, it’s still my choice, and I’m grateful.

Thanks! and I’ll try to find out what I can by the evil dweller down below.
I know, really i wasn’t mad or anything. Today was a great day and I don’t think there is much today or for a while that could happen to change that. I’m telling you, we really did cry like babies out of sheer happiness.
And you have chosen the absolutely, hands-down, perfect way to celebrate. Sex! Congratulations and may you have a couple of happy months of trying (and catching up on your sleep) before the test strip turns pink.
Do we get to help name the impending zygote? I’m voting for Ziggy.
Though it will probably take a lot of effort if we want to get pregnant. I was told a while ago I’d need to be on fertility drugs. Yeah that’s what I’d need, triplets!
If you think you might need outside fertility treatments, might I recommend you start doing a basal body temp chart right now? Any Infertility specialist will ask to see 6 months of charting, to see how your body goes cycle to cycle. Might as well start charting it every morning when you awaken, so that you can dodge that particular 6-month hold-up right off the bat.
Been down this road. If you wish, email me to delve into it further.
:D)
