I was laughing so loudly that the nurse came in to check on me.
It's been a really hard few months, and this cycle was particularly tough. I've been at the RE's office every other day for a while, and today I'm sitting there on the table, wrapped in my sheet, waiting for the doc. There was a longer wait than usual, and MH offered to trade places. He would take off his pants and sit on the table and ask the doctor if he could take a turn in the stirrups.
I couldn't help picturing my hubby's hairy legs sticking out from under the sheet and the doctor's surprise when he walked in on that, and where the u/s wand would go, and I laughed SO hard. I couldn't stop. I eventually explained to the doctor and nurse why I was cry-laughing because I didn't want them to think it was at their expense.
I had to share in the hopes that it will cheer someone else up.
15 treatment cycles: four early m/c
Moving forward with domestic infant adoption!
