...slandered as a poisoner and profligate, seems much to be pitied -a woman who may have had a lover or two but who gave her third husband at least seven children before her death at 39. Only a few women railed at their fate. Beatrice d'Este Sforza, pregnant and angered at her husband's open infidelity with one of her own ladies-in-waiting, reacted drastically. She gave a party one afternoon and danced recklessly. That night, as if she had intended it, she miscarried and, shortly later, died...
...agreeable juvenile confection. The plot is almost conventionally simple and contemporary. A 23-year-old graduate student named Chris marries a 21-year-old coed-dropout named Ellen, with whom he has slept on and off for three years. The tone inclines rakishly toward the comic. Ellen is pregnant, and the marriage has to be a bit of a scramble. There is a mad, drunken bus ride on the part of the groom.

...FERTILITY. In the early days of enthusiasm for the Pill, the word was that, far from interfering with fertility, it seemed to enhance it. Women who had just stopped taking the Pill seemed more likely to become pregnant within a couple of months. This is not true, certainly not for all women, says Dr. Alan F. Guttmacher, president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Some who have taken it for two years or more, then stopped because they wanted a baby, have failed to menstruate and ovulate, and therefore to conceive, for as long as 18 months. Guttmacher prefers...
