TTC after 35
Bar is OPEN! Two fer One today!
Hello, Ladies!
Two fer one drinks in honor of Mrs. Kairo and, dare I say FRAN!! And to celebrate all other BFPs good news.
Also, let's face it, those of us who haven't gotten our BFPs could CERTAINLY use two drinks, right?
So, pregnant ladies, you can drink up virtually. And could you spit in my Mike's Lemonade, please? Here's hoping it's contagious!
Price O' drinks question: Tell us about a ridiculous/funny/silly/embarassing TTC moment.
Me: So, it's time for the post IUI "send in more troops" sex. DH is exhausted, and I'm snotty and stuffy with a bad cold. But we gotta do what we gotta do! Needless to say, it's not so...romantical. And we could use a little lube. Too bad we're out of the conception-friendly kind! The bottle is just spitting air at us.
Like most of the rest of you, I've read - and re-read - TCOYF. I tell DH that I have something downstairs.
DH: Um, what the heck is that?
Me: It's an egg white.
DH: Are you sure that's ok?
Me: Positive.
DH: Um...Ok.
(((pause)))
DH in goofy voice: Did somebody order a sausage omelete?

Re: Bar is OPEN! Two fer One today!
Hi There!!! I will take a BIG cold Bud Light!! Thank you!!
We just started TTC so I really don't have a good story. I can tell you that when we went for our prenatal consultation that they took blood from me, and DH held my hand and both of us had to turn our heads away from the needle, yep we are babies trying to have babies!!
Here's a GIANT Bud light.
That's a great little ditty! "babies trying to have babies!" LOVE it!
Woo-hoo! The bar, the bar, the bar! I am working like a maniac today while it seems like the rest of the world is off. So, hit me up with 2 pina coladas please!
Funny moment for DH: while at the clinic trying to conduct business for his SA, he overheard his neighbors in the room next door: "Oooohh, Poppy...you're so BIIIGGGG!! You like that, Poppy??" Kind of a mood killer, I'd say. Ha!
P.S. - I think our virtual bar is making me hit the booze IRL! Whenever I think of my virtual drink, it makes me really want one!
LOL at Poppy!!!! Perhaps we need a virtual coffee bar instead?
I'll take a fertillita (sp?) and a shot of Yeg and throw in some TTC35+ water...
Not really ridiculous/funny/silly/embarassing, but... On our first "assisted" cycle, DH was a little "gun shy" when we needed to do the deed. So it was the night last year when the meteorites were falling so I suggested (at 2 am) that we go outside and watch them. It was very nice. By the time we went back inside it had taken his mind off of the "pressure" and he was able to "perform".... Alas, we missed the window, but at least we were able to get busy!
Aw, meteorites! How romantic! At least you had a great night, right?
BTW, you are looking mighty thin!!
I have been cleaning all day and I missed bumping! I am sooo happy for everyone.
To steal a line from "When Harry Met Sally" I will look longingly at all the BFP ladies and say "I'll have what she's having!"
Not exactly embarrassing, but funny (sorry so long). . .
One of my little brothers (the youngest of the four of us) is a pharmacist at a small pharmacy that does only fertility drugs. (He is a very kind and low key person, so I imagine he is a great comfort to all the women that go there.)
Also, ironically, he and his wife are pregnant with the first grandchild - pregnant first try! (of course I'm thrilled for them!)
My insurance will only cover fertility drugs if they are filled at his pharmacy. So, my doctor prescribed the clomid challenge. . . when I went into CVS the lady was explaining the situation, thinking I would transfer the prescription. I told the lady I would pay out of pocket and she kept saying "are you sure, it's almost $40.00" and kept kind of arguing with me. I finally said "my brother's a pharmacist there and I'm not ready for my family to know about this!" She promptly filled my scrip. . .
I apologize for the length in advance!
The 1st follow up appt after DH's Vasectomy reversal "redo" (yup. that is another story!) I was running late to his appt (2 hours in SF rush hour!). By the time I got there, it was 45 minutes after the Dr. was supposed to see him so I just asked the receptionist if he was still in the office. SHe immediately escorted me to the exam room. As we approached the room, she handed me a specimen cup. I looked at her and stated "No, I am here to pick up my husband." She very reassuringly said to me "I know". I still was not following her lead by any means because in my mind I was late for the appt and just trying to get him home. She looked at me again and said that she doesn't need a large sample. Again, I looked at her and said, "I am not the patient, my husband is." At that time she started explaining to me that I could do whatever it takes, as long as it doesn't include saliva and/or my bodily fluids." "HOLY #&$&%" It finally hit me, she thought I was there to "help" my husband and I thought I was just picking him up! I turned bright red and laughed so loud. Meanwhile, DH was in the room waiting for the nurse to return with some magazines. Boy was he surprised to see me enter the room.
Needless to say, the whole situation was hysterical and to this day, I don't know how we got any thing into that cup because all we could do was laugh!!!!
Now, I would love a glass of bubbles to celebrate our vacation that starts tomorrow!
Just a note to RedSox... They have clomid at Wal-mart for $9 a month (but let's hope there won't be a need)
I will take 2 Bud Ice please. I will have to have some other form of payment because we have no stories as of yet. I need them too, because this whole TTC thing can be a little depressing:(
hi ladies sorry i'm late to the party. Joyful do you have any lemonade left so that i can spit into it for you? LOL
i'll have a watermelon shooter followed by a vodka tonic thank you
funny story. first time we used pre seed i knew about the not using the whole applicator so i thought i had only used half. well needless to say i was a little bit more slippery than usual and dh said what are you a slip n slide. needless to say that particular BD session didnt work out so well for me or him
I'm a little late to the bar and in the 2WW so I'll just have one beer. Happy to see all the BFPs and hoping spring is stirring up lots and lots of fertility.
Last month was the first time i used the digital OPKs and I didn't realize you had to insert the stick into the other thing and I was dying to go to the bathroom and at work and I opened the box and was like dancing around trying not to pee all over myself while I figured out what I was supposed to do. Thankfully no one else was in the public restroom with me!
I'm just now getting to read all of the stories.
How funny!
We'll all have great things to tell our kids...when they are older, that is.
