Obsessed with . . ..

What are you obsessed with?

Organizing? Finding balance? Figuring out your new blackberry? Keeping in touch with old boyfriends? How about having babies . . .

This juicy tidbit, directly quoted from: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/02/02/earlyshow/health/main4769209.shtml

" . . . . that the picture emerging of their mother is that of a woman who's been fixated on having babies. "

Huh? Huh? 14 kids to a single mom who is a mere 33 years old. All kids under 7. This mom lives with her parents. Huh?

I will be the first to admit and having the lot that I'm currently parenting has been a very effective deterrent to actually losing weight or dieting . . but . . seriously . . . .is it possible to be fixated on having babies? Like this, I mean . . . I'm not talking about infertility. I'm not talking about a desire. I'm talking about invitro fertilization . . .. I'm talking about IVF for this situation?

And, so as not to appear so horrible and inconsiderate . . . congratulations!! I'd secretly love to have 14 children (just not 8 at the same time!!)
