Stig,

Hey - don't forget it is the egg that sends biochemical messages that "call" and "direct" the sperm. The receiver is as active as the giver sometimes. Anyway, we know that our comfort is often received by men as "Woman, just back off and leave me alone" but we just can't resist.

Bf,

I am so sorry for the pain you are in and for our collective inability to help in any real way. Please stick with us on this board despite our clumsy efforts and know that we wish the best for you.

Karen
