Subject: RE: Anyone here had trouble having kids? We tried for about a year unsuccessfully, and were getting really stressed out about it. We were both in our mid-30's, so our insurance didn't necessarily cover a lot of the fertility treatments that were available. My wife had made every dietary change possible. She was taking prescriptions, and we were...um...trying a lot. But no luck.
In September of '03, we were about to go on vacation, and so we decided to just stop worrying about it and enjoy the trip. For 10 days, my wife went back to drinking coffee, we had wine every night with dinner, stopped in Baltimore on the way home and had the biggest oysters we'd ever eaten, and just had a great time on vacation.
When she got home, she was late, took a test, and said that she literally stared at the little blue "plus" sign for 10 minutes before she called me.
