Isn't It Weird...?
Posted: 11-05-06 14:29pm

Maybe it's just me, but... Do any of you ever think about what would have happened if things were different? If a different sperm had made your baby? If you had released a different egg? If you had conceived a month earlier, or a month later? You would have a completely different person instead of the baby/child you have now.

I look at .Alyvia when she smiles at me, when she's talking nonsense to herself and eating her hands, and I can't help thinking how lucky I am that circumstances were just right to make *her*, you know? I wouldn't trade her for the world.

Does anyone else ever think of things like this? Am I just nuts?

Yeah, I think stuff like that all the time. I can't imagine that my son could ever not have been (if you know what I mean). His little stocky legs, his beautiful long eyelashes, my gorgeous wonderful little boy - would not be here if we'd happened to not have had sex that day.

God, it gives me shivers!

yup me too! Glad im not the only one lol it is weird cos if any of it happened differently, your baby might look different, sound different, react differently to things, like/dislike diff things, different facial expressions etc etc etc!!! I wouldnt wanna change anything about lucas Smile (ok ....Just wish he'd sleep more lol)

I think about stuff like that all the time.
What if .Chris hadn't of stayed the night that one night?
What if .I hadn't of felt up to having sex?
Our little miracle baby wouldn't be
punching me in the bladder right now.
It's so weird to think in terms of "what if.."

I think like that, too. I try to cut it off pretty quickly though, because I don't want to get depressed. It is funny to realize that you think like someone else though! Laughing
