Oh how passe

I knew it was coming. In fact I said as much.

Well it’s not rocket science is it? No actually it's mother nature.

It’s the same sort of attraction as honey to a bee.

The minute an IF starts cycling, or particularly when the 2WW starts, the pregnancy announcements start flooding in.

So far I’ve had two. Bracing for more. Both couples are adding third babies to their families. That’s the third baby to the family since we started trying.

So in one case, we’ve been trying to organise a catch up for dinner with A&B – of course now that they’re pregnant all calendars are free ... so what I want to know is: why couldn't you see us in the previous five months when you weren't pregnant?

‘Can’t go’ was the simple two-worder from me
‘I’ve told them we’re busy’ said Mr. S.
‘Good’
‘But ... you know, the thinking is that it’s not a cancellation for ever’

Why not? I think to myself.
