That gosh darn alarm going off at 5:45 to take the temp! UGH. And the OPK peeing drives me batty. I just want to be knocked up so I can stop peeing on stuff and get some darn SLEEP!
When you cook eggs or egg whites for breakfast (I eat egg whites from the carton all the time!), and now can only just think about EWCM... You proceed to cook and eat the egg whites anyway...
When it's the day your period is due and every time you pee and there's not blood, it's a small victory. This is more suspenseful than a Hitchcock film.
Also, when you have been trying to get pregnant so long that your former concerns about gender or zodiac sign/birth month seem ridiculous. I just want a healthy baby.
When you run to Wal-Greens to get a bottle of Geritol because you can remember your grandmother saying "there's a baby in every bottle" **not the bottle I drank! And it was gross!! Tolerable, but gross
When u POAS in walmart bathroom because you can't wait to get home. And when u keep small cups on haND just so you aren't having to search for something to pee in.
You know your TTC and in the TWW when every conversation starts with - "so I read on the internet that symptom X could be..." Lol! My husband wishes he could block me from Google! 8-}
You know you're ttc when you don't even want to see that Suberu commercial with the dogs barking as they drive past the mailman because there's a puppy in the carseat and you've got an empty one right now. Gr.
You see pregnancy tests at the dollar tree. You debate Wether or not to buy them, because you know If you buy them you will be tempted to take them way to early. But you give in and buy them anyway because you know you are gonna need them. Even though your still a week and a half away from AF.
When random moments in life look like sperm
Sink was making these water droplets a couple days ago )
That is funny, it definitely looks like sperm )
Married: 8/29/2009 TTC- since we got married (off and on) TTC with focus: Since July 2015
Currently had 2 rounds of failed IUIs, failed TI monitored cycle December 2015: Starting 1st IVF cycle January 2016: Retrieval March 2016: Pending Transfer (I have 3 PGS tested embryos waiting for a womb) April 2016: BFP, the old fashioned way.
You know youre ttc when youve figured out what all these stand for:
TTC (tryin to conceive), DH (darling husband), BD (bedroom danced/had sex), BBT (basal body temperature), AF (aunt flow), EWCM (egg white cervical mucus), OPK (ovulation predictor kit), HPT (home pregnancy test), BFN (big fat no), BFP (big fat pregnant), POAS (peed on a stick), DPO (days past ovulation), HCG (human chorionic gonadotrophin), LH (lutenizing hormone). Ive also learned the opk test trick, learned that sometimes theres a faint line that disappears on hpt's, and learned what a triphasic BBT chart is.

But you don't have one handy so you use
(except I think I used an ovulation test, but same difference)
This is too much! I love it!
When you talk yourself into believing that spotting could actually be implantation bleeding and not just the start of AF.
