CPW a day late: Bugs

in TTC After a Loss

You guys love how I'm spending my anniversary PWing all over TB, right?

So, DH just killed a spider for me.  So many things he does for me...I seriously don't know how I would survive on my own.

So my question:

[Poll]
PAIF/SAIF, PGAL/PAL welcome.
TTC since March 2010 ~ Dx Unexplained IF September 2011
2011: IUI + Clomid = CP#1
2012: 3 more IUIs + Clomid = 3 more CPs. One on-our-own pg, also CP
2013: BTB IUI + Lupron/Follistim/Prometrium/PIO = CP #6
IF testing, RPL testing, Autoimmune testing = all normal
So lost.

    Here's how it goes at our house...

    I see a bug, I scream.

    DH hates bugs as much as I do, but knows the rule "the men must kill the bugs".  He grabs a tissue and after flinching 5 times, tries to squish the bug.  If the bug is on the floor, consider the bug dead.  If the bug is on the ceiling, the bug falls after DH's failed attempt, and manages to run away before anyone can get it.

    LOL!  Yeah, that's pretty much how it goes here, too.  But the intent is always to see the bug die.

    Unless I'm at work surrounded by little kids.  Then I feel bad.  So make one of them let it out Stick out tongue

    I must be a bad teacher, then, lol. I always get one if the kids to kill the bugs.

    DH kills the bugs in our house. He knows men kill bugs and take out the trash, period. I, however, kill spiders. He hates them.

    I'm also pretty certain I flucked up that quote tree here on the fabulous Bump mobile.

    If I see a non-scary bug, it's dead. Boom, smashed, dead. If it's a scary bug (bees, spiders, etc), I ask DH to kill it. Unfortunately, Sweden has some dumba$$ tradition that says that killing bugs is bad luck. Especially spiders- if you kill a spider, it will rain. So DH is reluctant (do you want it to rain?! Well, actually, I'd much rather take that chance than have this spider crawling around...)

    Soo, I'm still working on that part! Haha

    Depends on the bug, but only because I will catch ladybugs and set them free. Everything else (in the house) gets killed.

    Bugs are typically just trying to do their bug-ly duty so I let them live and often escort them outside. I feel bad when I have to dust and disturb a spider's web. We have an understanding, I don't hurt them or their webs and they don't bite me.

    DH used to be more of a squisher but I believe I've brought him around.
