Throat Punch Thursday

Happy Thursday, ladies!

Let's hear it. Who/what do you want to TP this week?

Looks like I might be starting it off this week!  With a generic TP at that.  A big giant TP to AF who showed up this morning.

I can't post details about the TP I really want to give, for legal reasons, but let's just say that as teachers we see some crap stuff.  Some people don't deserve to be parents.

However, I do want to TP injectables.  I didn't know before I started Gonal-F that I was going to have to go in for an US every 3 days.  WTF?  Really?  DH gave me my first shot last night and it's just the unsexy-est thing ever.  He has to grab a little belly fat and stick me with a needle while I lay awkwardly on the couch and try not to look.  Let's just say I'm glad we're doing IUI and not TI because I'm really not feeling it.

OMG, I am about to reach through the computer to TP a friend who keeps complaining about work.  This friend is one of few who knows about my IF and MC, and who went through a brief stint of IF herself (got KU with a sticky baby from 1st IUI).  Fine, you're having an annoying week complain about it a little.  But the complaints have been coming for days now!  STFU and get some perspective, I wish that work was the worst of my stressors right now.

I definitely deserve a TP this week for all the emotional cutting. I just had my first IUI and went home and dug out all the baby books, baby journals and pregnancy magazines that I was given before my loss over a year ago. I've allowed myself to be way too optimistic.

@love4science I understand your wanting to TP the parents.. The majority of my therapy clients are court ordered therapy because of abusing or neglecting their children and while some people just need some redirection and help dealing with some issues, there are some who should NEVER have been allowed to have children! Makes IF seem super extra unfair sometimes.

I also agree a lot about IF is unsexy lol.

I'd like to TP all of my Facebook friends who keep complaining about their pregnancy symptoms, how their husbands aren't supportive of their cant sleep/feeling fat issues, and all of the constant "Oh just wait til you're pregnant" 

Thank you for reminding me that I am the only person I know who isn't pregnant.

Some of you may know I've been having issues with my dog Lucy, last night she stole a 1lb jar of peanut butter (out of my pantry) and ate the entire thing, along with Hershey kiss wrappers in the trash, and threw up 3 times last night. Is it wrong to TP a dog? Lol

@love4science Yes ultrasounds every 3 days stink... I had to go every 2 days! As for your injects, are you not able to do them yourself?  Anything in my stomach I just did myself to avoid DH having to do them... and because it is very unsexy.

Now we are doing Progesterone in Oil which is a shot in the butt... talk about unsexy, DH get to do those every night and it's totally embarressing.  

Best of luck to you.

Many of you may hate me but I want to TP being back at work... we got 'stuck' in Florida due to flight/weather issues for 2 extra days and now i am totally still on vacation mode... I want to go back to Disney and Florida.  

Usually when this happens i just start planning my next vacation but the factor of 'what if' i do get preggo happens... ugh.. TP working for sure today.

I want to TP the two ppl that were upset with me for the stupidest reasons at work! 

I was going around the hospital picking up blood samples and one of the phlebotomists was busy taking blood on a patient. I didn't want to bug her so I walked by, grabbed blood she already collected and left. As I walked by her I could hear her mumbling under her breath so I turned around. Then she says to me "I don't understand how you can just walk by me without saying hello!" I told her I didn't want to bother her (She had a needle in someone's arm!) Then she goes on about "I don't know what this society is coming to!" Like WTF? I didn't say anything so she wouldn't get distracted, why does she have to be all b*tchy about it?

So I go on with my day working in blood bank, and there is a patient is ICU who is bleeding and needs all this blood to keep them from dying. We are running out of their blood type in the lab so I have to order more blood from the Canadian blood services. When it comes in the student we are training is receiving them into our computer system. When we receive bags of blood a label prints out, but for whatever reason, we have no access to change what label printer it prints on and no way to turn it off (dumb I know). One of the lab assistants calls me telling me to turn it off because its printing on her printer and she's trying to print her own labels. I told her I'm sorry but I can't stop it from printing and can not change where it prints. She then tells me I better stop printing it and again explain to her I cannot. She then says she's going to call one of the managers. Ugh! Like give me a break!! Luckily the manager was on my side but still, once I explained it to her she had no right to be mad at me when I'm not to blame. Call the IT department, yell at them!

I want to TP AF. It refuses to come. Been spotting lightly off and on since Tues morn. At first was just a tinge of pink, then dark brown (but still teeny amounts), and just now it seemed a smidge heavier but then nothing. I already got my BFN so I wish AF would stop dragging the while ordeal out

I could.  I know how.  I'm just a big wuss.  I can draw blood from another person but I can't stick myself with a tiny needle in the belly.  When I get blood drawn I stare at the ceiling and never even look at the needle even when it's sitting on the tray.  I just...can't.

DH on the other hand is a doctor, does lumbar punctures ("spinal taps") on a regular basis, and thinks my inject pen is pretty neat, so I just let him do it.

@love4science makes perfect sense! Best of luck to you!

***pregnancy and children mentioned! not mine*** I really, really want to TP my DH's best friend's wife! She feels the need to FB about her pregnancy daily. Updates on her baby's growth, what they are buying, and worst of all boasts about her lack of weight gain every single appointment (and how she and the baby exercise daily and checks in at the gym)! I finally blocked her posts, I couldn't take it anymore!!

TP Unexplained IF!  I'm tired of "the good news is....everything looks normal" shit.  Well, great!  Why the f*** can't I get pregnant?!?!  This lack of dx also makes it incredibly hard for my mother to grasp that I in fact have IF.  I can't stand all of the "well the Dr said nothing's wrong, so don't worry, it'll happen" BS.  How can I begin to fully come to terms with my own IF if one of the closest to me can't.  Also, TP my DH who has been called a "rock start" and "over achiever" during each and every one of his SAs.  On one hand it's totally great that his boys are showing up each time, but makes me feel even more guilty/inferior and deepens this feeling that something is sooo wrong with me...and they can't find out what!

On the up side, third time's the charm right?!

I want to TP my former clinic which is charging $500!!!! dollars to transfer a vial of frozen sperm across town.

I totally get this. But with my mil, at the beginning she was naive to the process, "it'll happen, stop worrying" ect, it wasn't until I gave her the run down, and she was with me when I would take meds, or going to fertility appts that she began to grasp. My advice is to let her "see" more not "hear more"

Is it too late to add one? I'd like to TP my co-workers who insist on saying "you're next!" every time the conversation turns to the gals who are pregnant or any of the babies that have been born in the past couple years. Yes, I see all the bumps and babies. Yes, I know we all got married around the same time. Yes, I realize I'm pretty much the only one who doesn't have a baby at this point. Yes, I would love to drink this magical fertile water everyone keeps referring to. NO! I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT!!!!! lol. Take the freaking hint when I change the subject every time.

I want to tp myself. I'm trying to be caffeine free since I'm triggering tonight but I am dreaming of diet coke.

chickysue

There is diet caffeine free. ... but I don't need the garbage chemicals either.

I don't drink coffee, luckily.

I get this all the time. People mean well but sometimes, I visualize a line of them and I can run down and TP each one. Lol
