Why is it that all of a sudden EVERYONE is pregnant? I'm not even talking about the 50 or so babies I've counted in a one year period amongst people I know (I am going to prove that one up someday soon by actually posting my list!); I am talking about even on TV. Reruns of Friends: Rachel is having Emma (note to self: Cross Emma off the name list!). On ER, Carrie has a miscarriage. On Scrubs, Dr. Cox's ex-wife is pregnant with the child of a bellboy in Greece and they do a whole episode about whether or not to find out the gender. I read what I thought would be a silly girly book, and the main character gets pregnant, and the end of the story focuses on how she deals with single motherhood (that was nowhere on the jacket). I can't tell if it is because I am just noticing these things more, or if it is because I am at that point in my life even if I weren't pregnant myself, or what. But it's starting to really freak me out!
Well, to answer your question...When you got your last car, did you happen to notice how many of them where on the road?? Or have you noticed how many people own the cars that you are thinking about purchasing??? It is one of those types of things..you become more acutely aware of the particular thing, be it pregnancy or car or whatever...Your eyes and mind gravitate to the thing that is on it the most, in your case, pregnancy. And it is helped by the fact that all of your friends, like you are now done with school, settling down into hearth and home and doing what comes naturally! Momma
