"Hey, so I don't know how to tell you this, but I've been really worrying about it, so I'm just gonna come RIGHT OUT and tell you to get it overwith..."
[Fuck fuck fuck. EMAIL me you stupid bitch, don't TELL me! Don't you know better than this? AAAAAAA, no no no no no no!]
"RunnerGirl's pregnant."
[HALLE-FUCKING-LUJAH! It's not YOU! It's not YOU! I'm so happy I might have to kiss a STRANGER! Maybe even THAT guy, the coffee barista!]
"Wow, huh. Well, NewGuy seems cool, so that's great for them. Was it on purpose? Were they trying?"
"Yea, he IS really good, and yea, on purpose... Gawd, you sure you're okay? You SEEM okay?"
[It still fucking BLOWS that your 41-year-old friend hit the target after only a couple months and that EVERYBODY seems to get pregnant but me, but meh... at least I don't have to SEE her.]
"Yea, some days are better than others. But whatcha gonna do right? I can't STOP people from getting pregnant."
[If I could f*ing STOP people...]

Some days are better than others. Ain't that the truth. Wouldn't it be nice if we could pick which days we would feel sane? Although that would mean you would also have to pick the bad days and I don't how I would do that.
Yeah, it always sucks to hear.
I figure that I can't stop people getting pregnant either, but that doesn't mean I always have to like it, inside.
Especially when it doesn't cost them thousands of dollars. ;)

So I'm thinking of plotting a way to keep people from getting pregnant. Slip something in their water? That would make the days a little easier!
I'm glad it wasn't someone you have to see!
Ah, girl, your interior monologues are just great! If we could only say those things out loud - oh, wait you can on a blog!
Look on the sunny side, you're 32 and have years available to you (if you don't crap out and get preggers) to enjoy this money pit called IVF. People so don't know the joys of self injections the repeated visits to the pharmacy to get a SHARPS container. Let's not forget the early morning rush for blood tests and sitting in stirrups while an entire medical college comes to sneak a peek at your follicles. Oh, the attention I would get! Ah, memories!
You funny. Me like.
I think if someone infiltrated my coffee moments with that sort of news... oy vey. I so look forward to the coffee.
I hate pregnancy announcements. Even third hand ones of people I don't even know. How screwed up is that?
I understand the panic, the dread, the cold sweat, the trying to breathe and even smile. It is so difficult.
I'm glad it got you on a good day. I wish there weren't bad days, Ever.
Hi - first time on your blog and I totally relate to this. I try to head it off by requesting pregnancy announcements via email , but it doesn't always work. It's the worst feeling, and there is nothing you can do about it, except maybe breathe, if you remember. Ugh.
Have a great weekend-
Dot
you crack me up. and yes, it always sucks to hear that shit. always. but it's worse when you have to suck it up to the person staring you right in the face before you spit out whatever you can muster, try to breathe, and get the fuck out of there. yep, been there. ~luna
Ugh. sucks. Sorry about that. If we could put everyone on a waiting list so the people who have been TRYING to get pregnant can get their BFPs first, I'd totally be up for the idea.
Hey - what's your protocol for your next IVF? When do you start?
Every time I think of an IFer going on a coffee run I remember Mel's choose your own adventure story where the IFer ends up killing the stupid Fertile Mertile in the coffee shop...
I know what you mean about wanting to stop people from getting pg... I basically told my younger sister she wasn't allowed to get pg before I did... I know it's not fair, but I didn't think I could handle it emotionally.
Um, like, okay, would you stop stealing the thoughts right out of my head?
seriously, I had to make sure I was visiting your blog just to be sure ...
Nancy, I won't start the synarel until mid-march so won't go through all the hoopla until mid-april.
darn. I don't like to hear about 41 year olds getting it right after only a few months! I am still hoping my 42ish boss won't beat me to the prize!
ah. I thought you were on a 3/05 date - poop! I hoped to go through it with ya!
Is synarel a supression type thing? that's the nasty sniffing you do, correct?
Can't a girl get a coffee in peace these days???!!!??
Nancy, yea, the 03-05 is March-May sometime. I start sniffing mid-March to suppress the goods (or bads as they were last time) so they can stimulate me in April. Good times.
okay, well, who the hell says 03-05 as months? Is it a canadian thing? (~wink~) 03-05 was March 5th to me!
Ugh, that sniffing thing sounds so terrible. How come they don't use lupron? Would you rather inject than snif?
Nancy, I was thinking 03 (march) hyphen 05 (may) was like march to may, cuz I'm somewhere in the middle there, but I fixed it. Probably a drinking thing, not a Canadian thing... ;-)
On the synarel vs lupron, don't really know? My clinic just likes the synarel. Haven't heard of anyone there not using it? Why's yours like lupron?
Oh goodness, I have no idea why my clinic picks lupron. Probably all personal preference. My clinic doesn't do any sort of sniffing. Actually, you are the only one I know of "personally" to do it. I did see a lot of comments to your complains about it though, so I guess it is pretty popular. (come on, do it! you'll be cooooool.)
Just visiting your blog for the
1st time and how I relate to this post...! That is the hardest part for me when you other people get pregnant around me so easily but me. I wish that time would stand still for me so no one would get pregnant and move on with their life than maybe this IF wouldn't be so hard.
