So tonight at the party I wasn’t drinking at all, because AF still hasn’t showed yet. Later in the night when everyone was having shots, our friends would not<\/i> let it go and kept trying to get me to take some – my “No thanks” replies apparently weren’t enough. He said, “Well you’re not pregnant yet!” (I hadn’t mentioned my current situation to him, though they know we’re TTC.) I wasn’t going to bring it up, but replied, “Well, I don’t know, so…”<\/p>\n
Apparently – now I did not know this – but in translation that really means, “Tell me how to get pregnant!” Because his wife leans over and tells us to stop trying, that she “guarantees” that will get us pregnant. This from someone who got pregnant the very first month off birth control, without doing anything more.<\/p>\n
So, that irked me greatly. I guess I should have lied, as much as despise lying, and just said I didn’t want to drink for some other reason. I know our friends mean well by it – and that’s the only thing that stops me from getting really really bitchy to them. But remaining polite is taking greater and greater force of will.<\/p>\n
Oh yeah, like I said: nothing happening tonight. Not even the slightest spotting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
