Infertility funny (child ment)

mathgeek · 02-03-2005, 10:04 AM

Sometimes you just have to laugh. Anyhow I was talking to a friend of mine while our kids were playing and she knows I did IVF before and am doing it again in May. Well she is a quilter and I have just started getting into quilting. I made Colin a small quilt(40"x40") and am working on another small quilt now. While talking to her I said "yeah after this next one I am going to try a twin and see how I do with that". She looked at me kinda funny and said "Are you sure?" and I replied "Yeah, I already made the small one and I'm working on another small one now so next time I want to try something bigger" to which she said "Wow, that's kinda a lot don't you think?" and I said "Not really, I mean you've made queen size before right?". And she said "Oh, thank goodness, you're talking about quilts, I thought you were talking about babies, since I know twins are possible with the IVF I thought you were talking about that". HA! I seriously thought she knew I was talking quilts and here she thought I was planning on having another child then twins on top of that (like I could PLAN that anyways~right?). So I just had to laugh at that and thought maybe you all would find it funny too.
