I found this today while trying to make myself feel better, trying to find someone on insta to follow for a bit of a pick me up or inspiration or something, I’m not sure. But this just made me laugh and thought, who would appreciate this...you guys!! Don’t know if it’s allowed but I’m posting anyway!!

This is hilarious and so so true! I have also wondered whether I have been judged critically on my topiary skills, both design and execution xx

It’s the pointless bit of blue paper that made me laugh, they’re trying to protect your dignity while everyone and anyone is down rooting around in your nether regions 🙄😂😂😂

OMG so funny. I always debate whether to take my socks off or not 🤔. They just don’t look nice on bare legs.

😂😂😂 I know, especially if you’re like me and forget to shave!lol

Yes! I always deliberate over the socks lol. Looking weird with only socks vs looking weirder for taking them off for no reason?!?! 🤷‍♀️😂

Jam-master profile image
Jam-master in reply to Rosey2020

Yeah that’s it! There’s no reason to take them off, and my feet are always cold, so I leave them on and feel weird 😂

Rosey2020 profile image
Rosey2020 in reply to Jam-master

Right, I’m doing that next time! May have to upgrade my socks 😂.

Haha totally me 🤣🤣 I kept forgetting to paint my toe nails so I decided to keep them on but seriously debated for 3 scans which was better - socks on bare legs or bare toes 😂

Yeah I've seen this and lol'd at it. So true. Also, I had my cervical exam yesterday and she kept apologising for things and how hard it must be to do the exam and I'm like, puleez, not after 3 rounds of IVF 😂

So simple in comparison!

I do sometimes wonder where to put my arms... behind my head or on my belly 🤷🏻‍♀️ I think I awkwardly twiddly my thumbs like what to do what to do! X

Millbanks in reply to XOXO13

It’s so awkward 🤣 xx

Jam-master profile image
Jam-master in reply to Millbanks

At my last transfer they just said put your arms by your side...but there wasn’t enough room on the bed 😂 it was so narrow!! so they were half under my bum half just held there 🤣🤣

I know, so ridiculous 😂 but people don’t talk about these things, and it’s good to as we all experience them!

We do indeed! I always feel if I put my hands behind my head I look a bit lewd 🤣😱

The pants!! I always try and hide them with my jeans 😂😂

Jam-master profile image
Jam-master in reply to Chicky86

Same! Stuffing them in! Which is ridiculous, we all wear them! It’s just the things nobody talks about!

Chicky86 profile image
Chicky86 in reply to Jam-master

When I had my transfer last month, I went to get on the bed, and then realised I hadn't even taken them off 🤦🏼‍♀️ I felt really embarrassed for ABSOLUTELY NO REASON when the nurse basically saw me take them off, even though a doctor was totally getting a massive show minutes later 😂😂

I know it’s crazy isn’t it lol

Masief profile image
Masief in reply to Chicky86

ha ha that happened to me last year, I was mortified that I left them on and had to quickly take them off scrunched them up and passed to my poor husband 😂

Chicky86 profile image
Chicky86 in reply to Masief

I had to go in on my own unfortunately because of covid, I had to hide them in my dressing gown pocket!! 😂

Masief profile image
Masief in reply to Chicky86

Ah yes the dressing gown, I'm just under 5ft so i already look like a child wearing their parents oversized gown. I've had a couple of transfers without my husband too. My next one we're allowed partners again thankfully 🙏

Chicky86 profile image
Chicky86 in reply to Masief

I was very fortunate that my transfer resulted in my first ever BFP. I'm so grateful that he's allowed to come to my first scan, it's great for us all out there that things are opening up fully!! Wishing you all the best for your transfer ❤️

Masief profile image
Masief in reply to Chicky86

That is amazing news Chicky86, so happy for you! Yes it will make scan less nerve wracking. I am praying the next transfer is the one. We've had a couple of BFPs, but finally recognised my thyroid was causing issues. X

Chicky86 profile image
Chicky86 in reply to Masief

Thank you! I have everything crossed for you. Good they've been able to pinpoint your thyroid, hopefully next time will be the one 🤞🏻 xx

Aha someone sent me this before my last transfer and it had me in stitches! That tiny blue piece of paper is SO pointless when they shine a huge spotlight directly in to your nether regions! 🤦🏻‍♀️ I definitely had to have a tidy up downstairs before each of my transfers, couldn’t cope with having three people seeing me so unkept 😂 At one time there was four people in the room whilst I bared all for everyone to see and they just kept starting small talk with me whilst trying to poke the tube into my cervix!

I don’t always keep myself tidy for my husband but I will for my doctors 😂 xx

Hehe this made me laugh, there’s always stupid small talk, always about the weather!!

This made me laugh - especially the pants on the floor bit! I never knew whether to hang them on the clothes hook with my coat 🤣

When I was in hospital the doctor one time asked if she could borrow my iPhone to use the torch on it....she held it whilst her colleague inspected my cervix! I haven’t been able to use my torch app since 🤣

Jam-master profile image
Jam-master in reply to Ivfgotadream

Oh my goodness that’s crazy!! I can’t believe she had to use your phone 😂

Anyone else tucked their pants in their shoes to hide/so not on show and then had momentary panic when forgotten where you put them before getting dressed?! 😂🙈

Jam-master profile image
Jam-master in reply to Rosey2020

Yes! Especially when I wear leggings as I always wear black pants so I can’t find them when I go back to get dressed 🤦🏽‍♀️😂
