There's a phenomenon in my office. Somehow my desk has gained magnetic powers and attracts every pregnant woman or baby within 50 miles. For some reason, they always seem to congregate right in front of my desk. Here's how today unfolded:
A lady who used to work in our office came back to visit and popped in to say hello to everyone. She used to be the manager of one of the girls who sits right next to me - and oh yeah, this next door neighbor just happens to be pregnant with twins. So, mommy comes out of her cube and meets her old manager in front of my desk.
Mommy - "Hi Old Manager! How have you been?"
Old Manager - "OH. MY. GOD! Look at yewwwwwwww!"
I'm pretty sure every dog in the neighborhood heard her because her voice hit notes that I've never heard before.
Mommy - "Yeah, I'm pregnant. With twins."
The whole time she's rubbing her belly like those damn pregnant whores do.
OM - "You are sooooooooooooooooooooo adorable!"
Me - "GO AWAY!"
Mommy - "Yeah, it's been tough. Blah blah blah, whine, whine, whine"
Other Co-Worker who has to join conversation - "Isn't mommy so cute? She looks like she has a basketball under her cute little shirt"
Me - "GO THE HELL AWAY"
OM - "So, have you started your registry yet? With twins, I'm sure that will take the whole 9 months!"
All laugh hysterically like it's the funniest thing they've ever heard.
Mommy - "Well, it took me about 3 days and it was sooooooooooo hard. But I go on bedrest in 2 weeks and then I can just shop on-line"
I perk up.
Me - "What?! Bedrest? You mean I won't have to listen to you whine anymore?"
So, anyway, this goes on for a good 15 minutes. And, in the meantime, 2 other co-workers come out of their cube and join in the conversation. Did I mention this happened all in front of MY desk? The one lady in the whole entire office who can't get pregnant?
And, I debated on whether I should admit this but I will...
I bought some more HPTs and 11dp5dt still = BFN. I wasn't really expecting a different result. I bought some again because I wanted to test the morning of my beta as a step of final preparation for myself. I think I'm already there anyway. I've accepted that it didn't work and now I'm just ready to move on. I'm still really pissed that I have to keep doing these PIO shots until Thursday. I'm tempted to make the decision and stop them myself. I mean, really. What's the point?

OK, so I wasn't kidding. I might be making a mistake but I doubt it. I'm skipping my PIO shot tonight. I'm officially declaring this cycle OVER!

ugh. That really sucks, I am sorry you had to deal with that. I completely sympathize! And I am sorry the PIO shots are getting painful. :(
I'm so sorry you had to sit through that. Stupid fertile whores anyway. Being on bedrest and away from my pregnant officemate is one of my highlights this week. Sad, but true. I totally understand how sucky this is.
I'm so sorry for the BFN too. Giant hugs coming your way.
I read your post and I smiled cuz my thoughts are even scarrier cuz I can't stand these fertile whores!!!!! And the annoying part is when they rub their tummy and complain at the same time! GAH!
*hugs*
