I think I'm like the exception to everyone of these theories, myths, wives' tales, etc. hehehehe! wink

My best friend was on the pill for like 10 years, never missing one! And bam, like 2 days after she went off, her son was conceived. He's extremely smart, but I'm not sure about him being gifted. But I wouldn't doubt it. She was also over 30 when she had him.

Me on the other hand, I wasn't on birth control at all for at least 3 years prior to getting pregnant with DS. And if he's not HG, he's pretty darn close. I was not quite 30 when I had him.
