  • if you are in the States I am pretty sure that may be illegal for a manager to ask that...weird
    Hope everyone's week picked up! 

    Today is officially halfway through my TWW. Impatience is kicking in. 

    On a creepy note: 
    On Thursday my office manager pulled me aside, said "can I ask you a personal question" then asked if I was knocked up. I said no. 
    She said she must have "read something wrong" then wouldn't tell me what the "something" was. 

    I was pretty wigged out! 

    TTC since May 2015 with domestic partner of 13 years. Me 33 OH 33.  No ovulation or natural menstruation. Normal SA.
    Diagnosed PCOS February 2016
    First cycle 50mg Clomid 5/3/16, O'd CD 19 BFN
    Second cycle 50mg Clomid 6/1/16 O'd CD 18 BFN
    Third cycle Clomid 6/29/16 O'd CD 16 BFP @11dpo!
    EDD April 3 and praying things work out!

  • @smokinangel wtf? Are you close with your manager? Even if they read it, I think it's very rude and unprofessional.

  • @harleyquinn0621 - Fx for your IUI cycle!! 

    @starlitfae - That is the exact same way that I feel....and I have found that it has already helped me relax a great deal, just knowing that we are starting down another path that could potentially end up with a child. I am really glad that you and your husband were able to make that decision and that it has made things easier for you!

  • @HarleyQuinn7161, so glad it went well. Keeping you in my thoughts this week and hoping for the best! 

    Had my OB/GYN appointment last week. Ruled out PCOS (which means no surgery...so glad). I have a HSG on the 28th and I start on Chlomid today. 

    I broke down down and told my boss (who is beyond amazing) and one coworker, mainly because I needed last minute time off for the HSG. They were both so amazing. I work in for an organization owned by a hospital, that helps people with social determinants of health (non clinical stuff - housing, med access, transportation, etc). One of the things we do is help people pay for meds. My boss and coworker (our pharmaceutical access manager) said if the time comes when we need IUI or IVF, that our pharmacy program will help us pay for meds. I was gob smacked and so greatful to work with such amazing people.

  • @Mrs.RedHead I am so glad you have such great support at work.  I ended up telling my boss and a coworker on the day I made my appointment with the new GYN. It had been a hard day as my husband's cousin had put her pregnancy announcement on facebook literally an hour after I had called the clinic and I needed to vent.  They have been very supportive.

    It helps having the support both at home and at work, especially when you work with a lot of women and you end up having a lot of pregnant staff around you, like I do.
