I seem to have developed a ridiculous mental link and wondered if anyone else has anything similar it's kind of a superstition I suppose. My link is between seeing magpies and getting pregnant. There's an old rhyme regarding the number of magpies you see and it goes one for sorrow, two for joy, three for a girl and four for a boy (it goes on beyond this also). For 16 months ttc all I saw was single magpies. In November I fell pregnant and was seeing pairs of them. I then had a miscarriage and since then I'm back to only seeing single magpies. I know it's stupid but I get the same emotional pain/low feeling seeing a single magpie now as I do every time AF arrives or I see that BFN. Does anyone else have a superstition like this?
