I've spent too much time online, looking at the sites that tell me that I'm going to have a mutant baby if I try to conceive at this age.
And the other side of that is that I have too little time left to get pregnant. I'm basically a ticking time bomb, and every egg that drops is like the countdown on a clock...tick, tick, tick.
I don't know why I continue to look on the Internet. It's truly torture for anyone over the "magic age" of 35 who is trying to get pregnant.
Time. I've wasted too much of it listening to naysayers and reading Internet ramblings about the possibilities of having miscarriages, birth defects, and sick babies. Time to go outside, take a deep breath, and move forward.
But I did find THIS on the Internet...
