The wording sounds okay, but I'm not sure... Hello, What came to mind was the following: After having had given it some thought, etc... Is this correct? Or should I say: After having thought about/of it, etc... The below sounds off to me: After having given it some thought, etc... Wanting to stick with the past tense, which one(s) would be correct? Perhaps there are better options? Your help is appreciated, thanks!
