Hmmm? Been window shopping?

Not to pry. If I am tell me to "butt out."

Again, tell me to "go pack sand" if I'm prying.

Are we talking about window shopping where you were compelled to purchase that dress in the window and now you have added to your wardrobe? Or are we talking about window shopping where you say that dress in the window and one day you would like to buy it? [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

Hi, Cloudy. Interestingly enough, the current (or one week ago) issue of Time had an excellent article on this. It seems that recent research has shown that women's fertility begins to decline at age 27 (! ), and that successful pregnancies get rarer as the age of the woman increases, and by age 45, almost no one's ovaries are producing viable ova. It goes so far as to say that all of the 46-year-old actresses that you read about are usually done with donor eggs. This, of course, is not the last word on the subject, and doesn't explain the case of my friend Connie, who has a child almost the same age as Will, and became pregnant at age 39. So, er, to continue OTP's metaphor, if you are window-shopping, the sooner you try to buy, the better.
