    Talking Attention: TTC'ers looking for a laugh! tee hee....

    Quite often when it comes to 'trying to conceive'.... ah the lovely 3 words.... it is quite often associated with 'frustration', 'annoyance', 'why not me' feelings, 'anger', 'sadness', 'disappointments' and well, a whole lot more things we feel that we just wish we didn't need to go through at all when all we want is to conceive a much deserved healthy baby. And after all, it's our 'birth right' to conceive a baby isn't it?

    For those TTC'ers like me, looking for a good belly laugh.... I thought I'd start this!
    If you want to add to the list, then go right ahead!!! May aswell have something to laugh about right? After all, whilst we're waiting to experience the joys of pregnancy for the first or 2nd or 3rd or whatever time.... we may aswell have some fun of our own....

    YOU KNOW YOU'RE TRYING TO CONCEIVE WHEN .........

    * You think you might wet your pants every morning because you can't go to the bathroom until your thermometer beeps!

    * You are begging your DH to dtd with you!!! tee hee (normallly other way around)

    * After dtd, you lay on your back and ask your partner to shove a pillow under your bum!

    * Someone asks you what day of your cycle it is and you automatically quickly reply with 'cycle day 16'

    * The two weeks wait is the longest 2 weeks OF YOUR LIFE

    * You open the bathroom cupboard and all you can see if HPTs, OKPs & tampons!!

    * You glare at every pregnant woman that walks past you.... (and they notice!)

    * You start talking or emailing to your non-forum friends and use abbreviations like "ttc", "AF", "CM", "BBs" and they look at you as they have no friggen idea what you are talking about....

    * You buy every possible known fertility book around.....

    * You buy baby clothes even though you aren't even pregnant yet....

    * You start speaking in mysterious tongues; BD DPO TTC EWCM

    * You want to draw a coverline over stock market graphs in the financial page

    * When you travel, you may forget your toothbrush, but your BBT is always the first thing packed

    * At any given time, you know what your EDD would be if you got pg that month.

    * You're taking an odd interest in what's in your panties

    * You think every tingle means you are pg....in grown hair, hang nail, stuffy nose...etc

    * Before making an omelet you look somewhat wistfully at the egg white

    * Your husband says ?cervical mucous? with natural candor and confidence

    * You don't know the date, but you know your CD or how many DPO's you are.

    * Your boobs are sore because you're always touching them to see if they are sore as a sign of pregnancy.

    * You bolt off to the loo when you have an inkling that some CM may have made an appearance for an inspection and analysis. Doesn't matter when and where you are cos it may be the only bit you get and it's got to be analysed while it is fresh.

    * On some days each month your DH sneaks into the house really quietly so that he can at least drop his keys before you jump him.

    * You know your DH is dedicated to the TTC idea when he walks out onto the patio, inspects the hanging pots and yells out...."I've got full ferning out here QUICK QUICK lets get busy!!!"


    C'mon girls, let's think of some more!!!!

    ~*~ You get worried every time you cough or sneeze during the tww due to an irrational fear that it might make your "maybe" baby fall out... (or maybe that's just me?! LOL!)

    * You buy baby clothes even though you aren't even pregnant yet....
    Shhhhhh! My fiance doesn't know about the stash of baby gear in my camphor chest!!

    Maybe this one is just me but...

    If you are at the end of the TWW and you don't like the temp you just got, you keep taking it in the hope that it'll change to reflect that you may, in fact, be pregnant!! LOL! There were some days where I'd take it 300 times in the hope the first 299 were wrong LOL!

    This one is probably just for the ACers...
    When you first start AC you are obsessive about making sure that you are presentable 'down there', and touch up before each appointment... after a few months, you get to the stage where you remember you haven't shaved in a week just as you're getting undressed in the room!!!!

    What got me was when I was 'putting it on' DH and he asks "Have you got mucus?" Damn... is it that obvious.

    I have been skulking around the boards but only just registered today because I saw this thread and had to reply. It made me laugh so much It's my first month of TTC and coming toward the end of the TWW so this has been a blast to read.

    ~*~ You get worried every time you cough or sneeze during the tww due to an irrational fear that it might make your "maybe" baby fall out... (or maybe that's just me?! LOL!)


    Shhhhhh! My fiance doesn't know about the stash of baby gear in my camphor chest!!
    I keep thinking that exact same thing about the cough/sneezing and baby pops out!!!
    I haven't been game to buy baby gear yet, but I do have my eye on a couple of items that I will be buying whenever I do get a BFP

    HAHAHA! Renstar!
    How are we all this evening? Well I am no 7dpo in half an hour it will be 8dpo! Yay, another day gone! How do I get added to the TWW List? God this wait is sooooo hard! I want to know NOW! My O day was apparently 25th Feb & we BD'd 21/22/23 then 25th. I am not too sure if we got it right but last time I got preg it was from BD on the 11th day of my cycle so we decided to work from there. How do you find out what the temp chart should be. If I don't get a BFP this month, I might start to temp. Do you need a special thermometre?

    You know you are TTC when you "accidently" try on a maternity shirt at the store (hey it was mixed in with the jrs stuff!) and then can't resist putting the shirt you wore into the dressing room into the belly area and taking a cell phone picture... Or maybe just I can't resist,

    Also, when you buy maternity clothes that can be worn when you are not pregnant, I am so pathetic!

    Lots of baby dust to all!

    haha!! Good one girls!!!!

    You know when you are trying to conceive when your DH takes his Zinc tablets in the morning and then starts walking around the house "wiggling and jiggling"... he said to me "babe, I've got some movement happening down here!!!!" haha!!!! as in, the sperm are reacting to the zinc!!!

    You know you're TTC when ........

    You say to your DH "Let's go shopping at DPO on the weekend" Instead of saying "let's go shopping at DFO" (DFO the shopping outlets all across Australia)
    haha funny..... I didn't even know i had said it, but DH picked me up on it! hehe
