TTC After a Loss

While in the car(semen mentioned)

I was on the way home from the store, listening to the radio. They were talking about this random info about semen.  

First, pigs have almost double the amount than humans have.

Second, the average male sperm travels at a speed of 31mph.

Third the world record for the longest shot sperm(don't you wonder how they found this out) is 18ft.

They also mentioned that sperm lives in a woman for 5 days, some girl called in and said that wasn't true it was 3 days. The man asked "any children?"  she says, "yes, three"  "Were any when you thought you wouldn't get pregnant? "  "Yes, all three", she replies   So maybe, he was right, you think?

 

And finally, I was listening so closely to the radio that I didn't realize I was at a stop sign(thought it was a red light) and didn't hear the 5 cars behind me beeping because I was just sitting there...ha!

    lol.  that's to funny. I just clicked on it and didn't pay any attention to the title, and now I look back and have to laugh again.

  • I believe the 5 days thing.  My 3rd loss was conceived that way.
