Secondary IF

•••• 2if weekly check-in ••••

I'm posting early because I'll be out and about all day tomorrow and don't want to forget before my day starts.  So, here goes.


Cycle Status:

QOTW: In your opinion, what is the worst kind of awkwardness? Or share an awkward moment you've had.

And, bonus: Since we learned all about gifs today… post your favorite "Awkward" gif.  

To post a gif, go to google or any other search site, and search for whatever you're looking for with gif added on. For example, "awkward gif."  When you find a gif you like, right click on the gif and select "copy image address."  Then, come back to this post and in the tool bar, select the little image that looks like a picture of nature.  Paste the url into that field that opens up and click submit.  The gif should appear in the text box with the rest of your comment.

Re: •••• 2if weekly check-in ••••

  • Cycle Status: I don't even know.  cd31, I don't know if I o'ed.

    QOTW:  Food awkwardness is the worst.  Eating something you're not supposed to eat or seeing someone eat your food or at the wrong time.  I just cringe and laugh when I think about it.  Once when I was still working, one of the health nut ladies in our office was having her birthday so someone brought in a fruit tray and a jar of nuts instead of cake.  My boss didn't know it was for the 3:00 pm birthday party and opened and ate a bunch of the nuts for a mid morning snack, lol.  It sounds so dumb, but he caught so much flack for it.

    QOTW: I think the worst kind of awkwardness is when you unintentionally insult someone by talking about something you personally dislike/hate.

  • Cycle status....I have no idea, post surgery, so confused.

    The worst kind of awkward is the the kind that constantly surrounds me and pours out of my mouth at ever opportunity. I never grew out of the awkward phase. It's me....it's always me. I'm awkward...and clumsy...and I loose things a lot. So yeah....this is awkward...

    Awkward moment...during my first pregnancy I was at a work event with clients talking about how one of my co-workers insisted I needed to name my kid "Randy" after him...went on to say how ridiculous that was (suggesting the name itself was ridiculous), then turned to see the nametag of the client standing next to me...you got it...Randy...

  • Still benched after IUI was a bust, leaving me with OHSS and ovaries the size of tennis balls, covered in cysts. I'm CD 20, so I'm hoping for the dot to arrive and we can move on to medicated cycle 2 with IUI.


    Awkward moment- every day. I have a tendency to state the obvious or what others are thinking and don't say. Then I realize the whoops too late. DD shares this "amazing" trait as well. God help us.

    I'm beyond technically challenged. I downright suck. So no bonus for me!
    Me: 38     DH: 36
    Married: July 21, 2013
    TTC#1 (between us): June/July 2013

    DX: MFI (low count and motility)
    Charting/OPK/CBFM July 2013-present
    1st RE Visit: January 2014
    Cycling: 
    March 2014- 75iu follistim + trigger + progesterone + IUI = BFN and OHSS
    (8 million post wash 47% motility, 18mm/17mm/16mm/16mm/14mm follies)
    April/May 2014- Benched due to cysts/enlarged ovaries
    June 2014- 50iu follistim + trigger + progesterone + IUI = BFP!!
    (10 million post wash 60% motility, 20mm/19mm follies)
    Beta 1- 85 Beta 2- 2,752 - EDD 2/27/2015


    Everyone welcome. Strength in numbers!


  • Suppression cycle. Stop meds 20 May, start Lupron shots six days before that. I hate suppression cycle.
    Awkward moment- autocorrect provides plenty for me... But add to that when hubs and I argue and the whole time we were saying the same damn thing (his parents raised him to speak retarded- I say the sky is blue, he says, no- that is a blue sky. Seriously, not always that simple but I swear some backwards sentences come out of the mouth).

    CD 1 FINALLLLLLLLY. Ugh that cycle felt like it would never end. Waiting on results of b/w and going for HSG 5/14 (had to reschedule because AF is a biatch.) supposed to see new RE 5/16 but seems pointless if I haven't gotten my b/w back, so maybe that will get rescheduled too. :( QOTW: I am TERRIBLE remembering names. In my line of work I meet thousands of people (patients, their families, etc) and inevitably I run into them again outside of the hospital setting. They remember ME and I sit there dumbfounded as to how I know them as they start updating me on how Sue is doing so well now that she has the colostomy bag!

  • Cycle Status: 2ww possible last actively ttc cycle, then deciding on whether or not we will tta, I was accepted into a program for school, and ttc and by some odd chance we get pregnant, I would lose my spot to finish the program... :/ kinda sad, but once I finish this program, I will be done with school! 

    QOTW: In your opinion, what is the worst kind of awkwardness? Or share an awkward moment you've had. To me the worst kinda of awkwardness is when people dress like they got it, and they soooo don't, it makes me so uncomfortable, and in a way I feel bad for them, because they don't see how ridiculous they look, nor do they care....

  • Cycle status:  2ww

    QOTW:  It never fails that when we go to two of our friend's houses that they yell at their husbands or get into disagreements with them right in front of us.  And I am talking loud drag out arguments about such stupid stuff, ie. one friend likes her husband to help her change their 2 year old daughters diaper and she gets so upset when he asks why she needs his help.  I don't understand why she does need his help but whatever.

    Seriously! I can't even answer this post because I have tears in my eyes from the sticky floor gif. Omg.

    Somewhere after O, natural cycle. Waiting on tests.

    Awkward = me actually snorting at gifs, then showing DH and him wondering what is wrong with me. Actually that's not awkward. He is just a buzz kill. Or my snorting gave him false hopes of how funny they would be, even though they were absolutely worthy!

    Also Awkward = double posting because I'm too impatient and hit "post" a zillion times.

  • @annibes, I'm sorry your hubs didn't appreciate this gif.  I was laughing so hard earlier when i was trying to pick which ones to share.  DS was napping and I was sitting in the living room alone cracking up with tears running down my face.  It was a little awkward, but then I realized I am alone and I can do whatever I want right now.  

    Here's a couple more for good measure :D

  • @annibes, I figured it out!!!  I found this tutorial and it works.  Make sure you follow all the steps and it will work.  I was missing a couple steps in my first two attempts.  I forgot to put the "> at the end.
