Hi Ladies! I’m so glad it’s Friday. I’m looking forward to the weekend.
Angie—Not to long now. I pray that you get a BFP! I know this is your time. Shopping sounds like so much fun. Wish I could join you.
Meg—Awwwwwwwwww, you had me in tears. That was so sweet. I pray that the sisterhood will be around for a long time to come. Even after we all have children. Then we will have to discuss how to handle the first day of school, potty training, sucking of the thumb, temper tantrums, etc. It will be so much fun! Long Live the sisterhood!
Mel—Yes your advice helped a great deal. As a matter of fact I am sucking on the crystallized ginger right now. Once the sugar is all gone, it doesn’t taste as good but who cares. It works. I suck on it for hours. (Get your mind out the gutter ladies.
)
Sassy—I have the same question, are you going to get on any adoption lists? Are you going to wait until DH bring it up again. I hope you are enjoying your conference. Hurry back to us. We miss you.
Nickster—Sorry to hear about your pain with AF and unexpected visit with dildocam. Hate those! I hope the doctors can get to the bottom on your progesterone incident. Keep us posted.
Ok, I had something to say but I took a break from this post to use the potty and now I can’t remember what I was going to say.
But oh well, there is something else that I wanted to tell you guys. Remember I told you about my best friend who is also having IF issues. She and her hubby have been trying to conceive about 3 years. She has yet to go see a specialist. She keeps telling me that she is afraid to. I think she’s afraid to find out what may be wrong with her, if anything. I told her it might not be anything wrong but she will never know if she doesn’t go to the doctor. She has irregular periods and has been unable to conceive. She knows about my issues and that we were considering IVF. Never told her we did it or when we would be doing it. Also haven’t told her that I am pregnant. I have been avoiding her lately. So she calls me the other day and I was on my way to the gas station and I told her I would call her back. Being the conscientious person I am, I didn’t want to pump gas and talk on my cell phone.
So anyway, I never called her back…on purpose.
I was trying to wait to see her Easter weekend to tell her to her face about my pregnancy. So I was trying to avoid her because I don’t want her to ask me about it over the phone and I have to either tell her over the phone or lie to her. So she calls me again two days ago and said, “Are you trying to avoid me?” I felt like crap. I told her no and that I just forgot to call her back. I’m such a bad liar.
So then she proceeds to ask me if I am ok and if we did the IVF. I told her I was great and no we didn’t do the IVF yet. Argh….This hurts so badly.
She asked why and I told her we were still thinking about it. Then she proceeds to ask, what is there to think about? What do you guys need to decide? Are you scared? And all sorts of other questions that I really could not answer. So I told her that we were just considering all factors. Then she proceeds to tell me that she thinks I will be pregnant very soon. I just sat in silence and then responded, “yeah?” I’m so bad at this. lol Then she said yeah, you’ve been on my mind so much lately. I have really been thinking about you and having baby vibes. I think you will be pregnant soon. I just sat quiet and said, hope so.
This is so hard on me ladies. I hope God forgives me for lying to my best friend about my babies. I hope she forgives me when I tell her the truth. Now I’m in the process of trying to get her and DH to come visit us for the weekend. Although I will be in her area next weekend. But I figure I can’t take this anymore. So I’m going to try to convince her and DH to come visit for the weekend and show them a good time around town. Now, do you ladies have any suggestions on how I can break the news to them gently? I am going to explain to her that I didn’t want to tell her over the phone and that’s why I lied. But I’m not sure how to even bring the subject up.
It is true! I haven't even told my dad. I plan on telling him Easter weekend also. We are going to my home town that weekend and that's when we were going to tell my BF (who still lives there). I figured I would tell everyone at the same time. That way, we wont have someone running into someone else in the market and blabbing their big mouth. lol
