For All the Woman Out There Ttc Posted: 02-04-05 00:59am
You know you're trying to conceive
when.....
Women:
you think you might wet your pants every
morning because you can't go to the
bathroom until your thermometer beeps.
Your calendar at work is color coded for
the days leading up to ovulation.
You tell people you work for the fbi
because they look at you funny when you
use jargon like bbt, ttc, and af.
Anyone else would need a decoder to read
your fertility chart.
Suddenly, everyone around you is either
pregnant, nursing or with a child
you've created voodoo dolls for all of the
people who've asked, "are you pregnant
yet?"
you're about as interested in sex as you
are in balancing the checkbook.
Men:
you open your briefcase and find a sticky
note from your wife that says, "don't
drink any coffee, no cocktails after work,
don't stress out and keep your 'boys'
cool."
you're sleeping in front of the fireplace
and showering at the gym because your wife
turned down the water heater at home and
took away your electric blanket.
You look like someone out of a rap video
because your new boxers keep riding up and
out of the top of your pants.
You feel like your wife has an alarm clock
in her shorts because every four weeks or
so, she comes running out of the bathroom
saying, "drop your pants--it's time!"
someone asks you what day it is and you
reply, "cycle day 20."
you know enough about the workings of the
female body to teach a health class at the
high school.
You're about as interested in sex as you
are in balancing the checkbook.
