Thanks heaps BG
Reading your post has just made the most sense to me. It's spot on
DF and I had a great afternoon out and about today (market, lunch, DVD on couch at home afterwards) without talking about IVF at all, which I've just realised now! It was lighter than it's been in days. We talk everything through, as you say, share all thoughts and feeling, but this was us just being us without the heavy talk. I think sometimes it's hard to keep it light inside your head even so - it's (TTC/IVF) always there in your mind. Side effects are another unintentional, but incredibly effective reminder too.
I feel kind of silly - I have my wedding in 5 weeks - what a perfect thing to have away from TTC!! You've reminded me of that, and that's brilliant. Ta muchly, sweet
OK, here's my lightness for the night on the thread then:
DF would not be happy knowing he was the subject of lightness on BB, but... Cooking dinner tonight, asked DF for help washing/preparing potatoes. All good - DF says I'll quickly wash some dishes before I do that. Great - thanks hun... I turn around a couple of minutes later and what do I see, but DF washing the potatoes in the washing up water, soapy potato in his hand - he figured the detergent would help get them cleaner, as he doesn't like when he can't get them clean enough with just water! Perfectionist DF - what can you say!! So glad he's about to become DH!!
Sweet dreams everyone. Hugs to all.

P.S. BW: WOOHOO! No pill is awesome! Hope the time before FSH is relaxing for you, nice and side-effect-free. Thanks for your thoughts on sanity too - as DF and I have told only two people that we're TTC/IVF, BB is so important to me now. Important means serious, but I will be really trying to keep it light as much as possible, for myself and for whatever I can do to support others here, and DF at home
