I Just Want a Baby

Dear Sex Ed Teachers / Films,

Why did you make it seem like getting pregnant would happen so easily? I know you had to be careful and warn people about unwanted pregnancies, but when you hit your late twenties and actually want a baby, it's disheartening to learn just how small the window is each month that you can fall pregnant!

Why didn't you tell me about chemical pregnancies and early miscarriages? Why didn't you talk about ovulation and the different days of my cycle?

I don't feel I should only be learning this now. I just want a baby and no one warned me it could be this frustrating!

Thanks for trying?...
