Day 117

Day 117: If you are having a girl, all of her egg cells are in her ovaries.

Think about that. The egg that made my baby girl was in me when I was in my mom. The egg that made me was in my mom when she was in my grandma. I never had the chance to meet my mom's bio-mom... but we are connected... through eggs. Kind of cool. Kind of matrilineal. Funny how we live in a patriarchy but science and Mother Nature suggest otherwise.
