I counted the days back and conjured an ovulation chart into my mind from the medical books I had read during slack times at the library. My periods were as regular as clockwork. As they would say in the States, I was as fertile as a turtle. Maybe one of his wigglers was wiggling its way now. There was nothing I could do about it anyway -- the pharmacist was closed for the next four days so I couldn't even get a 'morning after pill. I felt myself willing that wiggler on.
"Yes, Greg," I whispered. "I'll carry our baby."
