Robitussin

As a fertility aid.  Who woudda thunk?  Thanks to Liz and, ironically, Dave's sister Elizabeth for pointing out the benefits of Robitussin as a fertility aid.  I will be posting more info about these things as I find out about that.

I also spent a little more time on the Fertility website FertilityPlus.Org, and found some pretty funny "fertility humor" sniglets!  Some of our favorites...and no, we didn't make these up, they are really in the humor section:

Class-preppanoia - the irrational thought which strikes a first-time university professor (while doing class preparation) that a student in one of her classes might do a usenet search on her computer id, finding all her silly postings to alt.infertility; symptoms include madly removing all personal references from her web page (cats, husband, all signs of having a real life) to avoid the students thinking she might actually be *human*.

Psycho-symptom-atic Syndrome - a psychosomatic condition afflicting women during the two-week waiting period; marked by a tendency to incorrectly attribute every bodily twinge and twitch to the early stages of pregnancy.

Pregsplotion - the sudden abundance of pregnant women in your vicinity within hours of your negative pregnancy test.

Briefectomy - furtive removal of all tight-fitting briefs from your husband's underwear drawer.

Clearpit Easy - bottomless pit into which women hurl buckets of money while repeatedly testing for pregnancy way too early or while testing for an LH surge.

Preconceived notion - the idea (before trying to get pregnant) that one will get pregnant within a month or two, three at the most.

Teehee!
