DH and I were just talking about it. ...
Can you remember when and where you were when you got pregnant???
DH and I were just talking about it. I think it might have happened after we came back from a night club in Feb. It happened when I was almost wasted (drinking). Now that I think about it, we did a lot of partying in Feb. (lol)
Were you intoxicated when you conceived your child(ren)? DH said that he read in Stuff magazine that most women get inpregnated while under the influence of alcohol. I know for me this was true....how about you girls?
Since I hit 21 I hardly ever dink, so intoxicated conceptions, 99% no. Now before 21, when I concieved Isaac...most likely..LOL. Anyway, yes, I know where I concieved all of my children. (Keep in mind, I have been a bit on the wild side when I was younger ) Isaac was outside in a park on a picninc table...make ya think twice about a picnic in the park huh?? Aaron was in my Ford Taurus in his dads sisters driveway. *hmmm hmm hmmm* Elijaah was at the apt I had when I met his dad. Naathaniel was concieved here in this house as was Laliyaah and Nazaaria. Now this baby is a whole nother story...LOL. He was concieved in Quays basement more than likely in his barber chair. hahahahaha.
Soloman - I lived in Vegas at the time. Soloman's father and I were living together. That night I had been drinking and because we had a very squeeky bed we were on the floor of our bedroom. I also remember telling hurry up!! LOL
Twins - Jan 10 2002 Their father and I had a "casual" relationship. I handed him a condom to put on, but the looser didnt put it on. I TOLD him I was ovulating....I can always tell. So really he shouldnt have been surprised when I told him I was pregnant.....ohhhhh but he was....and even more surprised when i told him it was twins.
My ex-husband & I were stationed (US Army) in Stuttgart, West Germany in 1978. In August of that year, we decided to go to Paris, France. While we were in Paris, in our hotel room, we conceived my son. I had him nine months later in Stuttgart, West Germany on 5/21/79.
With Amber, we wanted another child and tried to get pregnant again. There was no such thing as knowing when you ovulated or anything like that. You just did it like bunnies until you got pregnant. LOL! We conceived Amber at home in our bed, and had her on 8/18/81, at Fort Campbell, Kentucky, home of the 101st Airborne Division.

Umm...our Jaxson was conceived at Lake Pleasant, Arizona on our first "family" camping trip. We went for our second wedding anniversary. So he is our anniversary baby. Of course, this is after we had been trying to get pregnant for over four years and then decided that since Dh had gotten out of the Marines (on June 9th) that we would wait until we both finished school (not until 2008.) I found out I was pregnant on July 11th! ha ha ha
This baby...was conceived on December 5th. Nothing special...didn't even realize I was ovulating or anything. The only thing I remember is we had taken family Christmas pictures that night. Funny to think that there were four people in our family in the picture...lol.
We're kind of boring, I guess. When we heard that DH's sister was pregnant, DH looked at me and said, "I wish that was us." He was FINALLY ready to have a baby. We started trying immediately, in the new pillow top queen sized bed we had bought ourselves for our first wedding anniversary. Jack was born in March 2005. His cousin Zoe is just 5 weeks older.
With Lily, Jack was just 11 months old, and we realized that if we got pg that month I'd be due in between the fall and spring semesters of grad school so I wouldn't have to delay my degree at all. We had just bought a new pull-out sofabed for the living room for if we had guests stay over and decided to break it in after Jack went to sleep upstairs in his crib. We found out we were pregnant on Jack's 1st birthday. Lily came 3 weeks early, but I was able to finish all my fall semester finals and she was 6 weeks old when the spring 2007 semester started.
Now our family is complete and I'll be home with my babies until I finish my Master's in the spring of 2008. Then they'll go to preschool/daycare and I'll get a job.
DH and I don't drink at all, so no alcohol-induced babies here.
