A TRYING TIME ere s just no way to snuggle up to your sweetie and whisper \"Hey, wanna try tonight?\" I tried to come up with a number of inventive ways to phrase this, but nothing ever sounded right. Yet somehow we ended up pregnant anyway. It s hard not to be pessimistic (especially if you re over thirty) about your ability to conceive. Just as we over- thirties were about to start \"trying,\" a famous French study came out alleging a steady decline of fertility once madame reaches thirty. I remained calm, knowing I could lick this problem with the right book. I therefore went out and bought Dr. Sherman Silber s How to Get Pregnant. In this fascinating book, I learned that even Dr. Silber himself took six panic-filled months to hit the jackpot. This was depressing. If the fertility doctor himself couldn t alter fate, how could a lowly lawyer expect to do so? I had visions of financial ruin from repeated medical procedures at an infertility clinic, followed by a trip to South America to buy a baby.
