NTTCR: just for fun...

CML11

I was sitting in the REs office yesterday when I thought of a fun topic,
"You know you're TTC when:"

You can have a full conversation with DH using TTC acronyms and he knows what your saying.

Someone asks what is the date today and you reply Cervical Day 2

You've accidentally referred to your hubby as "DH" IRL

A co-worker jokes to you "well I bet you're pregnant" and you want to yell at them "it's CD5, I just shred 11cm of my uterine wall, my follies are all <10 mm and I had a dildo cam up there at 6:30 this morning. Is that enough confirmation?" Instead you smile and pretend your not even TTC.

Ok your turn, add to the list...

When you try to find ways to secretly touch your breasts in public to see if they are sore.

When you start seeing implantation dips in a connect the dots page

The slightest queasy feeling = must be preggo!

Sneaking a look at your chart on FF while on a conference call.

When you get anxious toward the end of your cycle and you start peeing frequently and then start to think that's a sign.

When you snap at DH to give you a second because you were trying to type a response on the Bump and he keeps interrupting your thoughts.

I  am so guilty of this.

When you figure out your EDD every month on CD1.

@hooligans4‌ I figured out astrological sign this cycle...I have issues.

kindershlitz

emsmama15

@hooligans4, I totally do that! I've even been doing it while I've been benched, trying to estimate when I'll come off birth control, when will be cd 1, etc. I'm a little nutso!

So true! It's July 25th this month....

@wannabmama23‌ and @heath&amp;jas
I actually found an App that helps me figure out my IVF cycle (IUIs too)and due date. It's called Ferring, brings the crazy up a notch $-)

TTCBabyJ

@hooligans4‌ I totally do that and I use the Chinese gender chart every month.

Glad I'm not the only one.  It's a girl if we get a BFP this month...

More answers:

When you wonder if Costco sells a bulk pack of FRER because you know you are going to start POAS way too early and need more... 

When you try to caculate your CD for every future social event to determine if you *might* have a BFP and not be able to drink

When you have to prevent yourself from squealing for joy outloud over CM...and wonder when it stopped being gross and started being exciting.

@vh2014  I so wish Costco sold FRER in bulk. ugh. I've actually checked our local store and their website, but no luck.

When you suspect everyone else of pregnancy.  Different food at lunch?  Pregnant.  Emotional at meeting?  Pregnant.  Unflattering top?  Soooooo pregnant.

I have a friend who is having a wedding next month after a pretty short relationship/engagement and part of me is wondering if she is pregnant.

You bring an HPT to work so you look at it again after the sun comes up because you swore you saw that second line but now it's gone... 

That's right ladies...the teenager in the back of my brain showed up this morning and since I leave in the dark I HAD to make sure I couldn't see it in daylight.... SMH  <- at myself and laughing at my craziness so feel free to laugh at me too.  Fortunately I didn't get out of the car with it, I just wanted to look one more time in better light. LOL.  I'm not even late but thought it *might* show up if it was positive and I wouldn't have to wait.. yeah... patience is not one of my virtues.  Poor stick, it never had a chance.

Your CD take FOREVER now to be ruined on a monthly basis by one day.  

It is now technically broken out in two parts.  Before O (and the wait) and 2WW (and the wait).

Romance is out the window....especially during the fertile window.  

Love this thread and enjoyed all the answers.

When you know what estradiol is, instead of thinking it sounds like a pretentious baby name.

TAT2MAMI

These are all great and I can relate to MANY of them!! LoL

I noticed today at a seminar that the speaker had the initials TTC.

I though of another one.
You've bought tampons, pre-natals and a HPT on the same shopping trip.

Nikolie93

These are great and I'm guilty of most!

@meredithcarole‌ I just sighed really loud at MH just moments ago when I was trying to respond and he wanted me to watch a dumb commercial I've already seen a hundred times lol

I'm about to travel for work. In my suitcase: a large supply of tampons, my bbt thermometer, prenatal vitamins, 3 pack frer...still waiting for AF and will test Monday to confirm drinking and Thursday *just in case* there is anything to tell dh when I get home if she hasn't shown. Hope tsa checks my bag. Hehe.

I went to Urgent Care instead of my PCP because they could do in house X-ray and this was the one time I could answer no I wasn't pregnant. My PCP would have had to order X-rays and then I would be in my 2WW.

When they offered a steroid and anti inflammatory shot, I researched whether or not it effected ovulation before deciding whether or not to get it.
