(Fifty Minus Forty-four) Times Four.

If Lauretta could tell you how she was swarmed by 24 million suitors yesterday, she would.

But she couldn't.

So, I'm here to tell you that she was, and that she has probably gone through the selection process. Whether she'd picked any of them, she would not reveal until two weeks from now.

Meanwhile, the mister has already made arrangements for the next step should this cycle fail.
 

IVF or In Vitro Fertilization (or some would call 'test-tube babies').

That's right. No more IUIs for me. We're moving to IVF if Lauretta decided to die an old maid.

The fundamental difference between IUI and IVF is the location of fertilization. The former, in the uterus; the latter, in the laboratory.

I won't go into details here because I'm hoping Lauretta isn't as picky as her sisters, and that she would've chosen someone as cute as him.

;)
