Getting pregnant for me was as easy as counting to 14. Really. You see, this pregnancy was planned out and I managed to get pregnant the very first month that we tried. My parents had warned me growing up that the Forbes’ were fertile (in other words, no sex before marriage). I had believed them. I believed them to the point that I planned maybe a year ago to get pregnant in August or September 2006, figuring that would give us time to get the house painted. Relatives and my mom’s friends laughed at me when I confidently told them that I was going to get pregnant in August or September 2006. When we finished painting the outside of the house at the beginning of July 2006, I moved the date up. I decided that I wanted to get pregnant that month, before my 30th birthday on August 5, 2006. That gave us just one try to get the job done. And we succeeded! (Sorry if this was more information than you wanted to know, but you apparently kept reading.)
