My dh and I are going to be using a donor and when we were explaining this to a mate of my husbands, he said "oh, so they put the sperm into your testicles then?"

What a laugh huh??? :lol:

i am sorry..

but i just was a bout to do something stupid..
i got this cd for a friend cause she cant read the book because she is blind.
well it is 3 cds and i copied them and i went and put #s on them so she would see them..

lucly i cought myself before i called her or toke them to her..
i would have felt awful...

so maybe sometimes things are said and done out of love and kindness..

Dear all this thread has made me chuckle soo much. Can i just add this gem to it. My dear friend (who is well meaning but ... you know) said to me ... "try standing on your head after sex, it worked for my mate"
a comment like that deserved no response.
Would retaliation class as a crime of passion I wonder???
Many chuckles

Hi all,
This thread has made good reading, where do these people get their "advice" from?? lol.
I have to say i've been pretty lucky, i've only had one from my MIL, she has 2 sons and a daughter, my DH is her eldest, her other son already has a 2 year old and her daughter is now PG. One night she turned round to me and said "your treatment WILL work and your baby will be that much more special" and in the same breath "but have you considered adoption, i watched a tv programme on it and it's not difficult to adopt now". I was so mad i let rip, i said "so would you have said to your other kids, oh yes you can have your own baby but why don't you try and adopt instead because it's so easy now". That shut her up, lol.
I'd like to know what tv programme she watched that showed adoption to be easy.
Take care all,
Lotsa love

Michelle
