I used to watch the Arthur cartoon every morning while I has my breakfast. This only stopped when I was 28 and had DD, therefore my schedule changed.

This morning I took J into McDonald's with me to get my iced coffee and there was an elderly woman with schizophrenia screaming about "bad guys" that rob people in the area. I ordered my coffee and waited for the nice McDonald's employee to make it. The elderly woman sees me and J and starts screaming that the "bad guys" are coming to kill him and rape him tonight. I grabbed my coffee and got the F out of there.

My confession? Even though I know she's old and has mental issues, I still cried the whole way to work.

That would scare me too. DD told me, 'big boys came in the house and tried to take my mommy (me)'. I figured out she was talking about a dream but it totally freaked me out for the rest of the day.

That would scare the crap out of me too. I'm really sorry that happened to you this morning.

I'm so sorry Cramalama.

I have to see a gastroenterologist for my autoimmune diseasea. I see him every couple of months to check how my treatment is going...

Confession- I find him intimidating and I dont like to ask him things outside of the usual.

Oh and yest my regular dr had me do bloodwork for arthritis...6 vials of blood. Ugh

SmurfyLite · September 2013

@cramcakes I would have done the same thing. That's horrible. I'm so sorry that's how you had to start your day

@lindscfa I'm a helicopter mom, and I fully support you "meddling" niece.

My confession: I have the worst road rage. Like, ever. I need a hidden dashboard cam and a tv show, because the things that come out of my mouth are monumental. My husband is equal parts proud and ashamed every time I drive somewhere. I think that people who are at fault for accidents during rush hour should be charged a massive fine for wasting everyones time. If you made everyone else late for work and injured somebody because you were speeding, or texting, or not checking your blind spot, I hate you. deeply.

EmeJay · September 2013

I feel like I don't want to go on with IF treatment.

I know this is utterly stupid, but a part of me like knowing that there are still options out there. What if we try IUI and IVF and it fails?

I'm such a mess

von1976 · September 2013

Hubs got in trouble for taking too many sick days at work, and now he can't take any or he'll get fired.

I'm actually not sorry in the least. I've been warning him for months that this would catch up with him.

I feel guilty taking sick days even if I'm sick, so it irritates the hell out of me when he takes them without being sick at all.

Squeepatrol · September 2013

::hugs::from a stranger @emejay.

My Fffc is that when I am staying over someone's house I snoop for their good eye cream/shampoo and use a little. I know it's rude, but I do put out good shit for my guests to assuage my guilt.

bunkgirl · September 2013

Earlier this week I was organizing my closet and saw my maternity clothes from my first pregnancy...my confession: I can't wait to be pregnant again so I can wear my maternity clothes. I love that it is socially acceptable to wear elastic...all of that glorious elastic. Oh and another baby would be nice too.

Milagros315 · September 2013

@EmeJay ::hugs:: I kind of know what you mean. We just started cycle 17 and we have know idea what we want to do. I just feel kind of helpless and hopeless.

Confession - every few months or so my dogs get really picky about eating. We don't change their food, they just get weird. When this happens, I will feed them with a spoon to get them to eat. I'll also microwave the kibble because they like having hot food. I've been spooning feeding them for breakfast and dinner for two weeks now.

SmurfyLite · September 2013

bunkgirl I'm wearing maternity pants today. *blushes* I'm not giving that shit up. elastic all the way. can't wait until I'm not embarassed to admit it again though

lest12 · September 2013

@emejay ((hugs)) from another stranger.

My FFFC - My ob/gyn is a very attractive guy. It's unsettling sometimes.

My other FFFC - I know I've mentioned some weight gain in the last year after I quit smoking...I mean, I'm talking 10lbs and I'm still within a healthy weight range so it isn't a huge concern... but my confession is that for the last 8 or so months, I haven't really made any effort towards losing the weight because I was hoping I'd just get KU and wouldn't really have to worry about it.

LittleLadyBug · September 2013

I'm currently watching "I didn't know I was pregnant." I think it's incredible that you don't have a clue. I can't get enough of pregnancy shows of any kind.

Squeepatrol · September 2013

This is the only acceptable way to start a day off of work. If I had my way, I would never wear pants again.

DarcyHermione said:
I'm off work today, it's almost 10 am, and I'm still wearing my robe. My hair hasn't been brushed and my face hasn't been washed. I'm disgusting, but I have no intentions of changing before noon.

sister13 · September 2013

Inspired by Kiki's: I really have very few germ phobias. When I'm cooking I do a lot of taste-testing and I lick all the utensils about a million times and keep using them. I do limit this when cooking for anyone other-than-family/close friends who know I do it and don't care. I learned it from my Mom.

I do this too. If it's just my Husband and I eating it I'll taste test and put the spoon, etc back in the dish.

I do this too when it's just my husband and me.

I do the same thing, but only if it's me and my husband. Oddly enough, I won't set the utensil on the counter, because THAT is gross.

I bookmarked the TBT thread from yesterday just so I can go back and look at @BPaws Eric Cartman picture. I seriously can't stop giggling when I think about. So every time I think of anything South Park related I shall be reminded of your picture always. I was a chubby kid too and I tried finding a good embarrassing one last night to share but I couldn't find any. I'll keep looking though!

My real FFFC is that I called and rescheduled my appointment I had made for my yearly. It was scheduled for 11/4, and I've been stressing about what will be discussed, so I pushed it back exactly one month to give myself more time to digest everything. I'm being a big cry baby about facing IF. I know, I know...we're only at 9.5 months, but after only have ovulating 1 time back in February, having a CP, and now nothing since not even AF.....I'm kind of just putting 2 and 2 together.

Marcilene1 · September 2013

Ok one last fffc for me:

I just realized that my son's birthday is wrong in my siggy. That's actually my ex-husband's birthday. Omg how did that happen?! I am a horrible mother Fixing it now......

* hugs * there is nothing flameful about this at all. 1 year is the medical standard to see a doctor but that doesn't mean you have to run to an RE if you are not ready. It is a huge step to take and you should take it when you feel completely ready.

I just feel like I'm admitting defeat too early, but thank you so much for the kind words. Although this board is incredibly helpful and informative, it's also scary as shit sometimes reading about the battles some women are going through just to become pregnant with their first and possibly only child.

Why the fuck didn't anyone prepare us for this?? I never thought it was going to be this hard. You find someone, you fall in love, you get married, and have a family.

Yeah, no.

*hugs* I'm so sorry. You move on to whatever the "next step" is at your own damn pace. You don't need to do what anybody else has done, or says to do. And I agree, I love this board, but it can be really scary sometimes. It has such a variety of women speaking candidly about things that people don't talk about in the "real world", and it can be very intimidating to see how many things can go wrong with something that we are taught is as simple as "do it once, and you're knocked up"

EmeJay · September 2013

Thanks everyone for the strangers hugs - it warms my rotten heart

lovelym13 For some reason, month 9-10 were the more difficult for me. It's not because you haven't reached the 1 year mark that you can't find this journey hard. Bewbie hugs to you.

jaytee16 · September 2013

@Emejay - hugs to you!!

@lovelym13 - hugs! Like kiki said, you don't have to pursue RE or testing or anything until you're ready.

@Milagros315 - Abby started getting picky with her food, same food as always, so now I have to entice her to eat it by putting peanut butter, cheese or treats in it. I used to make fun of my parents for doing this kind of thing and now I'm doing it too!

My FFFC: I am not looking forward to heading into the holidays - Thanksgiving is a few weeks away, my dad's birthday is just before that, Christmas (ok, that one's a ways off, but still) - while all of this crap is going on with my parents. I love the holidays and I am the one in the family that insists on keeping our traditions going. If my parents really go their separate ways, I can't even imagine what the holidays will be like. This makes me more angry at my dad. I also hate that it makes me a liar, at least until they figure it out for good. I had to lie to my MIL who invited my parents to Thanksgiving dinner, that made me feel shitty.

Yeah, no.

You can't think about the journey of others at all. This is your own path. Yea, some people have to go through a lot to get pregnant but it honestly does not matter to you, at all.
As far as being prepared- I don't think there is anything anyone could have told me or explained to me that would have prepared me for what was waiting for me once I started seeking help. Even if you are a worst case scenario type person. all the preparation in the world doesn't get you ready for the emotions that come with this kind of stuff.

It's a total bitch. I know I don't need to "borrow trouble" by worrying about what others are going through, it just gives me a reality check as to what kind of problems can arise. I'm a hot mess this week between progesterone and the sickness. I just want to lay on my couch with all of the pumpkin spice lattes in the world and spoon my dog.

My FFFC:

I don't often eat 'junk'.

Last night while making dinner, I had a HUGE sugar craving. I took out the half can of sweetened condensed milk (it was left over from the Key Lime Pie frosting) and ate a few teaspoon-fulls. Then, after dinner, I had a small pack of Honey Mustard and Onion pretzel pieces. It was maybe 2 handfuls, but I haven't had any in years. I used to eat it when I was trying to gain weight in college - it was my favorite thing (paired with a coke). I will come clean and say that at least I didn't drink any Coke. I had sparkling water to go with it last night. Not nearly as good, but still pretty damned good.

::commence loads of guilt today for eating all of those bad carbs yesterday::

Oh honey - Don't feel bad about this. This is "snacking" for most people

EmeJay · September 2013

When I had my BFP, I lurked everyday on the TTGP board because it is by far the most fun bhoard ever.

As sad I was to have a mc, I found solace in coming back for real here. Ah!

I actually knew a girl who could have been on this show. The thing is that she claimed to not know, but everyone at work thought she was pregnant and not telling anyone. I can't believe that I could tell that she was pregnant through her clothes and she didn't notice in the shower. But denial is a powerful thing apparently... (Also, she already had 2 kids, so it wasn't a new thing for her).

Not this again...not knowing is a thing that actually happens to smart people who are not in denial. Sometimes there just are no noticeable symptoms, even if you've had a prior pregnancy where there were the usual obvious signs. The human body is crazy!

It doesn't just have to be denial. Like squee said, there can be no noticeable symptoms, and if you have a little pooch you can not show throughout your whole pregnancy. @spookster is wise with this experience!

Lol, this is awesome. I make a face like this all the time (maybe a little less smile involved?) when I'm not sure what to say... my friend makes fun of me for it and now she duplicates it when she does not have any words, I'll have to send her this, thanks!

EmeJay · September 2013

@bbg676 - Drink a mocktail - Tonic water with a lime "Gin and tonic", Coke with a lime "Rum and Coke", Cranberry juice with a lime "Cosmo"

The trick is in the lime
