Well I really enjoyed the post about the stupid things people say and do so I thought I would post the opposite~ the nice things people have said or done. I know I get a lot of support on here because we all know what eachother are going through. A lot of my friends don't understand because they have never been through anything like this.
My best friend however, has been awesome through my ttc journey. I have been having a rough time lately. I just had surgery Tuesday(laporoscopy, hysteroscopy, d&c, and dye study). During the surgery they found that both my tubes are blocked. They attempted to remove the endometriosis in my tubes and I have another dye study to determine if it was successful in a month. My dr. has warned me that it is a highly unsuccesful surgery though. If it did not work we will be down to IVF or adoption as our two options. My best friend lives in Guam and set her alarm (due to the time difference) to call me to check how my surgery went. I was devestated to say the least and told her the news. I told her I was ok. (Like I tell everyone). She responded "I know you are not ok and that's ok. You don't need to be ok. You have every right to be devestated and to fall apart for a little while. When you are ready we will pick up the pieces and figure out what to do next" That was the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me. She knows me better than anyone and it is so nice to have a friend I don't have to put on a happy face for. Anyone else have stories of people who have said really nice things to you during your ttc journey?

He is always making lighthearted jokes and trying to say things about TTC to make me laugh. If I'm having problems with my cycle he is always trying to make jokes about it to make me smile. I told him during my last cycle that I may have to take Provera to induce AF and he said "Uh-oh! I'm gonna have to bring out the tarps, its gonna get messy in here!" He so silly! It really helps to joke about it like that sometimes LOL. I have an obscure sense of humor myself so the personal jokes don't bother me.
DH has a low sperm morphology and my boss refers the the bad sperm as the "nerds on the baseball team who are sitting on the bench refusing to go into the game" LOL. (DH knows nothing about my boss knowing he has morph issues...he would be pissed!) LOL.
