You know you're infertile when...

I found this funny checklist on Waiting and Wishing's blog. Some of you may not know what some of it means, but for me, it's super funny and is a great comic relief about something so unfortunate and depressing.

You know you're infertile when...

1.  You can say words like vagina, semen, cervical mucus without even flinching. (Yeah, it's pretty much in my everyday vocabulary).

2.  Your nurse knows you when you call. (Yeah, Theresa knows me very well. She has my birthday memorized (what they have to ask in order to obtain my charts). She tells me, "Good thing I like you, since I see you so much!" And then I joke back that I'm purposely causing my infertility so I get to see her all the time.  She's really helped me a lot during this time).

3.  You know every acronym that has anything to do with TTC. (BFP, BFN, HPT, CM, DH, BBT, BBs, OPK, 2WW, BD...the list goes on. And most of you probably don't know what the heck I'm talking about. Haha).

4.  You can tell the doctor your temperature to a hundredth of a degree. (This one doesn't really apply to me because I never really watched my basal body temperature to monitor my ovulation).

5.  You've stopped thinking of days in terms of actual dates, and have started going by cycle days alone. (Haha! I don't really do that, but that's funny).

6.  You refuse to purchase tampons until it is too late. (Unfortunately, this has happened to me and Aaron had to make a run to the store. I simply refused to spend the money on something I was praying I'd never have to use again. Little did I know...).

7.  You refuse to go into a hot tub in fear of hard boiling your eggs. (Yes, and I pretty much refuse to let Aaron hot tub, too, for fear of him boiling away his little guys).

8.  Your mood is in direct correlation with the line on your BBT chart. (Never really charted, so this doesn't apply to me either).

9.  You've said the words "forced marital coitus" to your husband. (I haven't said those words, but "coitus" definitely has become more of a planned event, rather than romantic spontaneity).

10.  You've completly filled the "nursery" with other things in hopes of moving them out soon.  (The office will be the nursery. It just has a desk, our computer and a chair in there right now, but I have visualized what furniture will be put where. Rearranging furniture is my expertise).

11.  You plan family visits and events around ovulation. (Oh yes! I made sure I wouldn't be ovulating next week while camping. And, I made sure I wouldn't be ovulating while Aaron is visiting Portland next month).

12.  You have zero time for complaining mothers or pregnant women. (They seriously need to SHUT IT!).
