Thanks for the note back. I agree with everything you said. I'm starting to think that in this day and age when couples stay together for a long time before trying for kids, the "drive", if you will, fades, and we actually don't end up doing the BD enough for anything to happen naturally. One of the reasons I decided to switch to the every other day system is that our natural frequency would only be about once a week. The system of cramming it all into the "fertile" period hasn't worked. I'll let you know... --Daphne At Mon, 12 Nov 2001, anonymous wrote: >
