Default things I worry about

  • riding a roller coaster during the 2 WW
  • Yoga during the 2 WW
  • that I really should have invested in an RE from the beginning
  • losing friends that have already had children and no longer feel connected to me
  • taking showers that are too hot and killing my eggs (but I need hot showers!)
  • since I already find this process frustrating, adding meds may make me a MONSTER.
  • missing my *o* today by a couple of hours (I had some cramping this morning at 6 and don't IUI unitl 4:30 )

*whew* it feels better to get that off my chest.

Yes me too!

But millions of women have gotten pregnant doing these things!

Glad you got these off your chest!

BTW- with yoga I think you only have to worry for the really twisting things!

Thanks ladies!
I appreciate the support.
I know I can't put myself in a bubble to get pg. And I'm incapable of holding still for 2 weeks, let alone 9 months! But I worry. My mom says I get it from her mom. *sigh*

I know I'm not the only worrier. Hijack my thread!! what do you worry about?

TMI Alert:



Wet dreams....They tell you not to have sex, but I cannot do anything about my dreams. After retrieval (B4 transfer) I had one and it was the most painful experience ever! It was like horrible cramps.

Lifting dogs, I am a groomer and I have to lift dogs into the tub....well, I have clients help me with any that are over 50#S but the last few weeks, I have been so careful to only lift with my legs!

I forgot and ordered my eggs over easy last wkend and halfway through them panicked and lost my appetite all together. Now I am afraid I will oder something else by accident. I LOVE soft cheeses. and I will often order a salad just because it has goatcheese in it!

Sleeping on my right side...I know that you are suppose to sleep on your left, well I cant I can only sleep on my right.

I also need hot showers and cannot stand lukewarm showers so I worry about that.

Now that I actually got a I now worry about my next Beta. Will we see a heartbeat, will I make it to 3 months?

I worry that DP has told too many people about our bfp and that we will miscarry and then have to tell all those people. (once she got over the disbelief that followed me telling her we were pg she got so excited that she has told EVERYONE!!!)

Shall I go on?? I am sure I will think of lots more!

that was awesome. Thanks for sharing! I had no idea about orgasms and IVF. That may be very good to know for the future!

Honestly I'm so relieved that I"m not the only one who worries about hot showers. SO RELIEVED!

FOOD TOO! I had salmon last night which wouldn't worry me so much if I hadn't had a tuna salad earlier in the week *EEK!*

It's awfully hard for me to be living on both sides of the microscope - being the watcher and the watched all the time.

I'm learning so much too! Sleeping on your right side has to do with your heart and circulation, right? Won't that matter more later in the pregnancy?

anyone else out there? Join our worry party!

Yep, woke up to a dream this morning...and it still hurt...I may need to ask my dr if the pain during O contractions should still be hurting this long after ER. I sure hope it's not going to stay like this!!!! YIKES

Yea, sleeping on your left side is suppose to help circulation and yes it makes more of a difference later BUT I worry that I will never be able to sleep on my L side! So I try to practice
