Topic: How do you pass the time waiting Posted: 23 January 2008 at 9:59am |
to see if this month could be THE month?
This 2 week wait feels like the longest 2 weeks in my life!
I swear I "feel" pregnant which pretty much isnt even possible!
I seriously feel like Im going insane!
DH has banned me from doing anymore P tests! lol
So how do you guys cope with the 2 ww?

this may sound totally impossible but you have to not think about it. I was totally totally mesmerized with getting pregnant but after 2 years of different treatments and waiting for a laparoscopy then being told IVF was the only way I was ever gonna be able to concieve we did naturally about 5 weeks ago not only because I had totally stopped thinking about getting preggers without scientific help obviously  but I reackon that had a lot to do with it because I was totally relaxed and enjoying practising.

Henna79 that is so so cool! Well done.
BooBoo, I'm with you. I've had this converstation running through my head the past week and a half full of what if's and maybe's. I've even started looking on TM at things I'd like to buy. Sad. I try and keep going with my normal routine, find a book to absorb me (Marion Keyes is perfect for me!), enjoy the feeling hopeful and for me I've loved watching my bf get all clucky and take care of me when I"ve been feeling sick.
Good luck BooBoo

She is due in 3 days...or about then anyway Im not exactly sure because last month she was early.
Its so stupid but I have been off the pill since July but we havent been "trying" as such and still arent, but I just really feel like this month is THE month if you know what I mean?
But its dumb because I dont know enough about my cycles to even know what time of month to bed or anything like that!
Just feel

Personally I do the following:
* Plant seeds, nurture them and get them into the garden
* Gardening in general
* Craft - knitting, crochet, spinning, weaving, the works
* Cooking - preserving, new recipes etc
* Surf the web and research baby stuff
* Hang out here on OhBaby! :)

Things are going well, trying to get him into a routine. Will have to catch up one day!
Hehe, you may not be trying, but you're not trying NOT to conceive are you?!
