even further proof that fertiles don't know we exist

So I went in for the insemination yesterday at an odd time.  We went when my husband got off work, and when you work 36 hr in a row that can screw up an insemination schedule - instead of the usual 8am IUIs, this was 2pm.  

Yes I had to wake up at 2 in the morning on tuesday to shoot up the ovidrel for a 2pm insemination

Yes the team came in for me at 2 pm when they only usually work in the mornings and Yes I am very thankful to them.

But as a side effect to the odd timing I got to wait in the waiting room during the midwife clinic.  Boy was that fun.

pregnant woman: "Excuse me . . . is that the blah blah blah diaper bag?"

postpartum woman: "well yes it is"

preggo: "oh my goodness - do you mind if I take a look inside? . .. wow its so wonderful"

preggo numero dos: "your baby is so cute"

grandmother: "oh thank you"

preggo #2: (baby talk insues and then preggo #3 gets in on it too)

receptionist: I'm sorry I don't see you in our system

rude preggo" well thats because I changed my name"

receptionist "Can you please go down the hall to get that changed with registration"

exceptionally rude preggo "I already did the last time I was here"

receptionist "well I don' think it went through so I am afraid I am going to have to ask you to go try again"

really rude preggo: "don't they know who they are dealing with?  I am full of hormones right now and going to get angry"

You wanna talk about full of hormones ... yup thats me.  And if only I didn't work there and could have potentially be delivering this woman's baby in the near future, I would have layed into her like hot knife into butter.  There is no excuse to be rude to the receptionist - She is a nice woman who is jut doing her job.  But I refrained. 

I was so happy when they finally called my name to get out of that waiting room.

Unfortunately of course I was being led into a room and I almost ran into one of the perinatologists.  He looked at me, recognized me and hurried out of the way like he wasn't supposed to see me . . .why?  Because what ever reason would I have to be a patient during the midwife clinic.  

Yup.

The rumor about me being pregnant will spread before I even am.

Fabulous.

thats okay - will all be worth it when I pee on a positive stick - and at least everyone else will know before I do.
