it all happened so fast. i've only known the father a little over a month, so i must have gotten pregnant one of the first times we had sex.

my idea of a fairytale then is much different from the fairytale life i dream of now...

i am happily married to the man of my dreams. we had had the staying child-free discussion before and we were in accord.

i was a 22 year-old college senior. i had been on the pill since i was 17 and i was pretty used to it. the guy that i was seeing and i broke up in november and in december went home for winter break.

i was exactly halfway through graduate school. i wanted to finish, and continue a career in my field. even though i had an iud, i discovered i was pregnant.
