lol, thanks for sharing that with me Miss kris. Now I dont feel so unusual. I also have a few other weird things that I do.....Hmmmm....Should I share them........
Ok, I like to count things. For example, if we are driving along and I am in the passenger seat I always find myself counting how many cars I think would fit in between the guide posts. Don't ask me why I do that, I just do
A couple of other things that don't have to do with numbers is I really like to hang each item of clothing on the line with the same coloured peg. Because of this, my SIL went and bought me a couple of packets of pink pegs to make it much easier, lol. I also like to put our plates back in the cupboard with the pattern on them all facing the same way. Yes, I know, you all think I am a complete nutter now
No im a peg girl as well! We have red and blue pegs lol and hubby runs out and switches them to be a little bugger! lol!
I have this thing about being touched, for instance, if you were to poke me on my left cheek, i would (very inconspicuously) (sp?) poke my right cheek ... the feeling has to be even, lol so when for say, i stub my toe, you will find me holding both feet instead of one lol!!
I also am a straigh fanatic ... i bought paternless plates for that reason LMAO! Annnnnd my desk at work, is a laugh, lol my wall has paper pinned up on it, all with the same coloured pins and in an orderly fashion lol and there are either 2 or 4 pins in every page, never less, never 3 lol even though i like the number three!!!! OMG! I am feeling so weird right now!
hehehe, you got me there with the touching thing. That made me laugh. I can just see you kicking your toe and grabbing both your feet in agony, lol.
Why is it that DH always wants to do things the opposite way that we like it just to get a reaction from us. It must be in the male species make up to go out of their way to bug their wives.
Before starting my own photography business I used to work in a bank. Fitting really as I am a numbers girl. It did get a little stressful at times though when customers would bring in their deposits and have all their notes facing in different directions. I think that the bank started my plate obsession cause you have to place all your notes in the draw with the window on them facing the same way. It's funny how things stick with you.
WEll, I am glad that I am not the only "different" person here. Thankyou so much for that.
Thats ok! Lol! I find the only way i can handle all these little "control" issues i have is to laugh at them ... lol
oh one more for ya, i can't STAND it when power points are left on and nothing is plugged into them ... if they have something in them im fine, but if there is nothing and they are sitting on i will go and kick them off ... i got away with it until one day my FIL noticed it and now he runs around and turns them on to see if i will notice ... he gets a good giggle out of it, now its an on going joke ...
must be a man thing, whether they are your hubby or not!! Bahahahahaha!
I hear you. Another thing is we have two way switches for our lights down our hall. You know the ones that you can turn them on at one end and then turn them off at the other. Well I don't like it when there is no lights on but there is a switch facing upwards like there should be a light on. If DH uses the two way and the switch ends up like that, I'll go and turn the lights on and back off again until all the switches face the right way. It's a bit silly really and really pointless but I let it get to me and I really do not know why. Maybe I should try to learn to ignore this stuff.
Wow, we nearly filled up this new thread with this stuff, lol. Sorry everyone else for having to witness our unusualness.
Well i keep thinking of things i do and i am beginning to sound like a real mad woman!! We have a halway switch like that, i also have a ritual before i go to bed, andt drives me insane if i don't do it just right! Yep ... im mad!!
ok i have an app on the 30/06 with the FS to get my clomid!! YAY!
Oh ladies you have been giving me a right old laugh, Miss Kris I totally understand the power point one, I can’t stand them being on with nothing plugged in. I’m not a coloured peg person but I do pick the pegs up in even numbers. The TV and radio volume used to have to be on multiples of 5 (since 5 is my favourite number) but I’ve grown out of that one. Oh the things we do, I used to think that I was just highly strung, but the more women I talk to the more I discover I’m not alone. Thanks for the laugh, just what I needed for a Tuesday afternoon. Nice to not feel alone!
Miss Kris and Hope, I have not laughed like that in a while and I did need it tonight.
I must say though it reminds me a bit of myself. The peg thing they HAVE to be the same colour and I put things on together shirts, shorts, socks, etc nothing can be inbetween. The tv sound has to be on even. The dishes have to be washed in certain order, the light switches on two way lights have to be down when off and when putting displays up for work they have to be centered and symetrical. I'm starting to thinkI have OCD, but have thought it for a while. hehehe
Oh and I do think that it is deffinately a male thing to annoy us women, but they do make life interesting.
Keli congrats on the scan going so well, hopefully there will be more BFP anouncements on here. Are you going to find out if is a boy or girl?
Bec I so know what you are going through, it is so hard to deal with having a BFN and then not have AF arrive. I have to just do a test and if it is BFN I start on provera straight away. I'm sending my pos thoughts and some hugs your way.
Miss Kris GL with your FS app at the end of the month. Fx'd that it won't be too long till you fill a little bundle of joy tumbling inside of you.
RhiChiChi at least you know that there is nothing wrong with your tubes, but sux that you feel like you do. Best of luck with you app in July and you won't need to do IVF
AFM i'm half way through my provera tablets, only 5 days to go on them and then wait the 7-10 day when AF should arrive. I don't know if it was just me being out of wack and tired yesturday but everything that DH did made me even crankier , but I must say I am much happier today. Well only 2 more days and then I get to see my new nephew in Tammworth, we are driving down friday morning, yay.
Hope & Krsi- you guys are hilarious. It's ok though. At school we refer to these behaviours as 'aspie' as in just a little bit asperger's! We are all a bit on the autistic spectram, some of us are just further along it than others...(lol!) as for numbers I am an even number girl too, but I can usually rationalise. 2011 could be 2+0+1+1=4 so still an even! just a bit aspie, as I said!
Jules- current FS is Dr Gronow and I'm book in with Dr Kate Stern in August. Both are with Melbourne IVF. Kate is supposed to be a bit of a PCOS expert and she also has done studies on recurrent miscarriage too. I'm not holding out for being UTD by then, but maybe... Interesting you said about the psychic. I'm going to book into to a lady in Bacchaus Marsh who's apparently fantastic. I fully get your fears about m/c. I'm almost dreading getting UTD for fear of m/c again. I'd rather not get pregnant than suffer it again. Yah for an earthbaby next time! Sorry (and congrats) that lap didn't turn up anything. Like Kel said maybe it's just a clean out that's needed? FX fr you & GL for your IVF appointment.
Porsche- Thanks so much for your boost. I think you deserve it more than anyone with the year you've had. Maybe you'll o later than usual? Apparently that can happen on clomid. GL for your appoitment with IVF and nurse.
Keli- so glad your scan went well hon. I'm totally living vicariously through your pregancy you know, so keep us up to date! I can't believe that women at work said that! I thin I would've had trouble holding my tongue.
Liz- How exciting; a new nephew to cuddle! Enjoy the cuddles, I'm told baby vibes can run off (my MIL insists that it's true. I'm not sure...) GL with the provera.
I know I've missed something important, but I can't get back to the other page to check! Hi to all, GL to all no matter where you are in your cycle, and FX to those heading to IVF cycles.
AFM: Thanks everyone for you kind words. I'm still feeling down becasue I had to start to Primolut N to induce AF, but I'm looking at it as a fresh start. I'm having tomorrow off to spend time with DS, we might do something special to cheer us both up! Just planning a weekend away for Dh and I for our anniversary in July (maybe I'll ovulate an it will be good timing ) so I'm looking forward to that.
BRING ON THE BFP's guys! GL to all
Bec
How is everyone going? I see you all found a common subject in querky traits. BAHAHAHAHA it gave me some entertainment tonight reading through them all.
Well I am starting to lose hope on Femara, DH and I are discussing going straight to IUI now. We have there referals to go and get all our blood tests. Still more discussion to be had, but I will keep you informed if I am moving into a different forum.
Good luck to you all, I hope we all have success this month.
So funny that many of you have similar little 'habits'. I was having a giggle & thinking, yeah I do that too!
Liz - Congrats on being an Aunty! GL on the Femara I hope you get your BFP.
Nelly - Sorry to hear you are on a downer about Femara, I would probably just go to IUI now too. May as well get the ball rolling. GL
Bec - Definately book in - it certainly helped me deal with some emotions about ttc # 2 - I had a bit of a cry when she asked what my q was.... I hope you can get some positive affirmations about # 2. I hope if you end up having to see Dr Kate Stern that she can give you a different perspective & approach. It is definately a bonus she has the knowledge of PCOS & recurrent m/c. GL
Keli - I go back to work at the start of July but I have to take half a day off when I first go back b/c I have the FS appt - they will love that! lol Not on Clomid this round Dr Tarrant didn't want to give me anything incase it interferes with what the FS wants to do. Sort of glad about it cos the side effects were not pleasant for me.
Well DH & I have talked about really going for it next cycle (waiting for AF to come tomorrow) whilst we are waiting for our FS appt. I asked him did he really want to & he said yes, so we will be busy DTD every second day - we had success with conceiving DD that way. (I am not really looking forward to the every second day) I am hoping the lap 'clean out' will be our saving grace but I am not going to get my hopes up too high.
Better go, got a real estate appraiser coming out later today & the house is a mess
Nelly - I agree with Rhichichi. Maybe you need to move on to other treatments now. Good luck with whatever you decide.
Rhichichi - FX you get that illusive BFP before your FS appointment.
AFM it's time for me to move out of this thread and into an IVF thread seeing as we are doing that the end of this month. I'll keep stalking you all and praying for your BFP's!
Porsche: GL with the IVF. I have everything crossed for you. Please keep us up to date.
Rhi: Fingers crossed that what worked for you once before will work for you again. I am sure the lap was a good starting point.
epayne: Enjoy your visit with your nephew. Hopefully the baby dust will rub off onto you.
AFM: I got my 21 day prog results today. NOt as high as last time but still pretty good. It was 54.5, ovulation occurred again this cycle, woohoo. Just waiting now to see if AF arrives on Monday or there about. Hopefully not but if she does I make an appointment with OB to go for a lap and than we move on to IUI. I'll be sure to keep you all up to date. I'm kind of glad that OB has decided to not go on with clomid for months and months and just wait and see if it will eventually work. I feel confident that this is our year to have a sticky baby. Baby dust to all of you.
