If you want to get pregnant, come to my office. Or if you don't, stay far, far away. In 2009, the corporate office at Laura Mercier Cosmetics / Gurwitch Products saw the birth of 9 babies. Yes, 9! Actually, we had a tenth at our satellite office in New York - so there were 10 babies!!! I guess it was bound to happen since it's an office of predominantly women and most of within the same age group - 25 - 35. It's been a lot of fun to have this many pregnancies and babies happen within such a short time frame. Our co-workers have had to endure talk of pregnancy woes, birth stories and breastfeeding. You also have to be careful which office you walk into since me or one other mom could be strapped to a pumping device - you really don't want that image burned into your head. The fun part is that all of our kids get to grow up together. And we just had our first play date with almost 8 of the babies present.
