Red or Green
Don't you sometimes wish your belly button was actually a light? Ok maybe I'm just crazy that way. I decided though that it would be really great if your belly button would let you know stuff about what's going on inside these crazy bodies of ours. Red - nothing happening - no ovulating or baby - depending on the time of the month. Green - get going you have some baby making to do or need to see a doctor because there is already a baby inside. None of this peeing on a stick every day to check fertility levels, or spitting on a "fern" reader. No waiting at the end, just instant answers. So I shared this idea with Aaron and he had one issue. Though red usually is negative and green is positive when you think of spaces red is usually occupied and green is vacant. So would the green light mean there is a baby or that the womb is vacant? So now people would get confused and start second guessing their belly button light and that's not helpful for anyone. So I guess we just need to put up with the system we have and come up with another use for the belly button. Any suggestions?

Hi there,
First I just want to say thanks for keeping up the blog even if it's only once in a while. I have an etiquette question for you - I've been TTC for about a year and a half and it's been a pretty lonely ride especially in the community I live in when people are getting pregnant and having babies seemingly every week and it seems like we're the only ones struggling to conceive. Anyways...I recently realized that someone in the community who I've only met a couple of times must also be having a hard time but I'm really not that good friends with her. So on the one hand I want to reach out to form some kind of mutual support system but on the other hand I want to respect her privacy. I know if it was the other way around I would want someone to reach out to me because I feel so incredibly lonely but this can be a delicate thing. What do you think? Thanks, S
