Congratulations to Suzie, the 56 year old chimpanzee for getting pregnant so quickly. “The zoo director said Suzie was taken off birth control because of medical concerns – and because zoo officials didn’t think she would get pregnant at her age.”

Wait. A 56 year old chimp goes off birth control and gets pregnant right away? She’s a little hairy. Shouldn’t she have PCOS or something? Yup. Still  jealous of a pregnant chimp.

You have a secret infertile fantasy. You fantasize that you will somehow get pregnant naturally. Naturally meaning the good ole fashion “bing, bang, boom” way. You really believe that could happen even if you have no fallopian tubes, your eggs keep breaking, and his two-headed sperms keep crashing into one another.  Continue reading »

You have been to your fair share of kids birthday parties. You received your pity infertile invitation to little Mindy’s 1st birthday party but spent the entire party hanging out with your uterus, chatting with your ovaries, and tearfully listening to your mommy friends talk about breast milk and poopy diapers.

But somewhere along the way the birthday invitations stopped coming. No one said it aloud but “IF YOU DON’T HAVE KIDS, YOU ARE NOT INVITED TO THE PARTY.” Continue reading »

Now, many months/years/decades later they have all gotten pregnant and some of them are even on baby #2.
