    You research another culture's tips for fertility and start looking for sources of recipe ingredients. Africa. Yams. China. Abalone.

    @jilligan14 - I've started unconsciously doing this in PUBLIC!  I totally groped myself at Target one day during my last TWW!!  OOPS! :)

    Haha!!! My H looks at me sometimes in public as if to say, "what are you doing?!?!?" and I realize I'm poking my boobs. Too funny!!!

    SERIOUSLY - in addition to all the other women in my office who are under 40 being pregnant, we just found out my SIL and SO's cousin are preggers. And my SIL is due only a few weeks after I was supposed to be due. Seems like every time I start to feel emotionally ready to move past the loss and am feeling hopeful, I get news that brings the sadness flooding back...

    When you realize you're the only one in your entire department who doesn't have kids! Other than the 2 college kids who work part time. *sigh*
