Day 158...Infertility Humor

Yesterday's blog got me a couple responses on WTE but not as much as I would like. Mostly it was just "yup, that could be signs of pregnancy" but nothing concrete. But I guess I kinda knew that would happen. I'm just going to have to wait it out. I do keep getting this odd feeling in my lower stomach though that has me wondering. It's hard to describe other than, when I lay on my stomach it feels almost full down there. Not stomach full, but kinda like there is a rock in my lower stomach when I lay on it. It isn't very comfortable so I've been lying more on my side or back lately. I don't know what it's all about but again, I'm just gonna have to play the waiting game.

Another thing I learned today....apparently I was taking my ovulating tests at the wrong time of day. I thought I had to take them with the first morning pee like a pregnancy test. Turns out, I should've been taking them in the afternoon. As I read, "the best time to test is 2 p.m., or as close as possible. Anytime between noon and 8 p.m. is fine, first morning urine is not recommended. The reason for this is that most women experience a surge in the morning, but it can take 4 hours for it to show up in your urine."--www.fertilityplus.org. So there ya go! That's probably why my tests kept turning out negative when I took them last week. If I'm not pregnant this month, I now know better for next month.

Anyway, here are some funny jokes I found online that I thought were worth sharing:

-Two sperm were swimming through a woman's body. The first said, "Whew. I'm getting tired. Just how far is it to the uterus?""The uterus?" the second laughed. "We're not even past the esophagus yet!"

-Why do gypsies have trouble getting pregnant?They have crystal balls.

-Why do male basketball players have trouble getting their spouses pregnant?All they do is dribble.

-Labor pains
A married couple went to the hospital together to have their baby delivered. Upon their arrival, the doctor said he had invented a new machine that would transfer a portion of the mother's labor pain to the father. He asked if they were willing to try it out. The husband was a little worried about this, but wanted to help out so he agreed.
The doctor set the knob to 10 percent for starters, telling the husband that even 10 percent was probably more pain than he had experienced ever before. But as the labor progressed, the husband felt fine. The doctor looked a little bewildered and adjusted the machine to give the father 20 percent of the pain. The husband was still feeling fine. The doctor checked the husband's blood pressure and heart rate and all seemed perfect. They decided to transfer 50 percent of the pain to the father.
The husband continued doing well and started making wisecracks about how women complain so much about labor and it really wasn't a big deal. In fact, he was willing to take all the pain! The doctor turned the switch to 100 percent. The wife delivered a healthy baby with virtually no pain and she and her husband were ecstatic.
When they got home, the mailman was dead on their doorstep!
