TTC ASYLUM HISTORY:

It all started one day on the Temp Board and I was discussing the color of AF…and I asked if anyone thought I was losing it… Well Sam chimed in immediately and suggested that
……They're coming to take you away ah ha ….
to the TTC Asylum

Thus, the birth of the Asylum. Women on the edge of insanity in their TTC quest.
What has been so much fun is describing what the Asylum needs in the way of furniture, fixtures and decorating ideas. (An hpt & opk machine in each room) Anyone who wants a bed in the Asylum just has to let me know and you're Committed, it's always interesting to hear why you think you need to be committed but that's totally up to you if you want to share the reason. We do involuntary commitments too so just let me know if someone needs to be put in a straight-jacket and brought in! :o}

THE IDEAS FOR THE ASYLUM BEGAN TO FLOW....

Here's my idea for the asylum...

I've read that smelling the sweat of a PG lady, or smelling a baby can stimulate women to ovulate, so....I think we should circulate "Eau de Mama" and "Eau de Bebe" through the air vents!! I for one need all the help I can get to O! The hard part will be getting one of the alumni to volunteer to get all hot and sweaty while running on an exercise wheel (like the one for hamsters) in front of the big air fan for the asylum...any ideas on how to get them to do that? LOL

RESPONSE: Oh no!! ..... (views: 5) alison sf -- Thursday, 1 April 1999, at 2:47 p.m.

Hi, my name is Bonnie and I'm trying to get pregnant and you'd be helping me sooooo much (puppy dog eyes) if you'd purchase your home pregnancy tests from me this month. How many can I put you down for? Uh, sir....????? Bonnie

No Bonnie....we gotta have all the hpts we can get!!! *laughing* How about this one instead... ~Jenn~ TTC Asylum Guest #7 -- Thursday, 1 April 1999, at 11:57 a.m.

Bonnie can the Asylum afford Dude CP checkers? Missy (more)
In Response To: Ok, who checks cp? I'm clueless....more (Missy * Asylum guest # 10*)
Your body is miraculously created in the right dimensions to get at CP...
Your vagina should be approx. the same size as your middle finger...and the cervix dips into the vagina about an inch....so if when you are reaching straight up, maybe even bear down while doing it, you should feel it.
Are you squatting with your butt on your ankles and reaching in from front or side?
Some ladies find using index and middle finger help...others say checking at night it seems to drop some.
HOpe this helps....
I think we should train Mel to be an EXPERT CHECKER!!!! :O}}
Dear Heaven! The line would be around the block!
hey Momma! Can I be the official decorator? Got to put that degree to use :) nt Chris, Room #18 in the asylum --
Momma! Did I read that you're our prize obsessor this month? Good luck!!! nt Missy * Asylum guest # 10* --
You got it Susie F, you're Guest #47....welcome! (nt)

Momma Kath, I would like a room or need it. Thanks. nt
You got it Sheri, Guest #46 want to share any decorating ideas? (nt)

Expansion of the asylum: Obsessors wing
In Response To: Expansion of the asylum: Obsessors wing (Candi guest #37 in the TTC asylum)
perhaps we should also have 2 rooms 1 for celebrations, and 1 crying room. The crying room should be stocked with m&m's and whine oops I mean wine, of course
I'm pretty new to the message board. What is the asylum and who is Mamma Kath?
Hi Susan...I'm Momma Kath and
In Response To: Lots of toilet tissue in those bathrooms, Candi! (Bonnie, 4th guest at the TTC assylum) Ultrasound machine.....I want to see what's going on every day.....know what I mean...sometimes wish we had invisible skin but that would be rather gross...remember Chevy Chase in the Invisible Man movie (forget the name) where you could see stuff going through his system.... trapped gas bubbles....yikes snicker me ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I say the Asylum invests in our very own..... (Momma Kath TTC Asylum Guest #1)
u/s machine sounds like a really good idea.....
Can you use that on dh's 'boys' to make sure that there are enough swimmers to make the trip? LOL I can just SEE my dh now - "hold still, honey! No, I'm NOT going to insert this anywhere......" Bonnie


Has to have long hallways for pacing. And of course a bathroom at each end so we can check to see if we "started". What else...
With you Sally, we can stay up all night & tell silly stories... oh yeah, we do that now>
We can be "wombmates" since we're both lurkers... besides, you know all about me already so I won't have to tell my ancient history!! LOL!! And I promise not to giggle ALL night... but sometimes, and I don't eat cookies in bed, and I share well and play well with others... there. Does that work for you sweetie!! I miss you girl!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

How's this for being a fool....
In Response To: Hey CB- at least we both tested - together!!! (Candi guest #37 in the TTC asylum) I'm only 5 dpo but my temp is unusually high for me (98.5 today) and I think I Pregnant! Last night DH asked if he thought we did it and I said...you know I've gotten you excited every cycle since we started this journey...so I sure hope so but....don't know! COME ON KATH WHERE'S YOUR ENTHUSIASM...... well my subconscious must have worked on me during the night because that morning temp has just given me a bunch of hope....geez So, here we go again...I'm going to put my temps in an excel spreadsheet and then create a graph and stare at it at night..... Yes, definitely asylum material here... Momma Kath 15/26 5 dpo 98.5
Woo hoo!! Sounds really good to me!! I will be counting the days right along with ya! ++++ nt Chris, Room #18 in the asylum --
Yes, but it's such NICE asylum material!! Obsess away Momma! ++Vibes from Atlanta!! nt Lisa F~ Asylum guest #40,lurking on a work break... shhhhhhhh!!
That's what else we need in the assylum! Weekly hpt anonymous meetings with coffee and cookies. nt Posted By: alison sf In Response To: What a sweet guy! We're like hpt-aholics around those tests. (nt) (alison sf)
