    he he...this thread reminds me of when I would tell people that Archer was little for the number of weeks gestation...they would try and tell me how these things can be wrong etc etc...and I would say 'no' we know exactly when he was put back, and even know what he looked like! I got lots of blank stares...

    Such a crack up, I also used to get asked how far along I was as I was huge close to the end. Then would get asked if I was sure as I looked further along, yep I knew to the day, time even when she was put back and how many days she was when put back so the dates were spot on. People look at you like you are some kind of weirdo...

    It's so funny as now I am already getting asked when we are planning on having the next. When I say I am looking at doing a transfer in Jan 2011, the same blank faces although my MIL wanted to point out "that it might happen naturally next time".. Umm, isn't the only way to get pregnant via a FS, you mean I've been getting it wrong all this time

    ddeeerrr everyone knows you can't get preg by having sex! you lot are crraaaazzzeeee

    oh kellyD - the number of 'it'll happen naturally next time' comments we are already getting! i feel like say "oh **** orf''. hmm

    but seriously, i think i'm much more empathetic to others. also when dealing with other young couples in terms of when the baby issue comes up - before i would have just asked the same ignorant questions that now irritate me so much. but i never do.

    i also find my sis (whose having troubles conceiving) and another friend also now on the intervention track, confiding in me a lot more.

    oh, one other thing, not so much AC-related but BB related - i have called my DH, DH to other people recently instead of "my husband" lol. they look at me very very strangely!

    I know this is an old thread, but I had to resurrect it when I read this...

    Age of Eggs and Sponge Cakes

    This is a totally harmless, un TTC related thread...but you can all imagine what I thought when i read the title....What have sponge cakes got to do with eggs??

    Oh, yeh, that's right...the kinds of eggs that you cook with.

    Life after LTTTC
