As it turns out, getting pregnant is no problem for me at this point. Staying pregnant? Well, not so much.

DO have a baby. She's gorgeous and healthy and
beautiful. My gratitude for her knows no bounds. And along with the
other three children I am lucky enough to have, that means I have given
birth to FOUR healthy children. What 41 year old woman with FOUR
children has a right to even dare hope for another? And certainly, a
woman with FOUR children has no right to complain about multiple
miscarriages when there are so many women who have no children at all.
Which is one reason why I've kind of kept my mouth shut about this. It
sounds really sort of tacky, someone who has four kids complaining that
she isn't able to have a fifth. It's sort of like if John McCain
complained that he doesn't have enough houses, or if Tiger Woods whined
that his golf swing just isn't what it used to be.
