Things I know that I wish I didn't

1. snorkeling + tequila + no food = bad idea
2. Pregnancy does not equal baby
3. My parents don't know everything
4. As I get older, my ass is attempting to reach my knees and is getting closer every day.
5. That when T recently announced his new goal rate for racing season, my body got confused and thought it was my goal weight too.
6. My body hates me and goes out of its way to piss me off
7. People that get pregnant the first month of trying and proceed to call themselves "fertile myrtle" should have rocks thrown at them
8. No matter what anyone says, certain drugs are really fun to take (calm down, blog readers, those days are over but it sure is fun to remember)
9. I will eventually turn into my mother, it is inevitable
10. T's family is nuts
11. That I would one day get the opportunity to see my uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries on TV
12. I have a tendency to get migraine-like headaches a couple of days around the time my LH surge happens
13. I know what an LH surge is
14. Breast cancer happens to girls in their 20's
15. Progesterone suppositories really help you sleep, seriously - they should market that stuff as a sleeping aid.
16. That my male RE informs me "I'm going to touch you now" before doing any testing - this causes me to giggle every time and I think he thinks I'm really strange
17. Anytime you have a miscarriage, you are guaranteed that at least 3 friends/acquaintances will suddenly announce their pregnancy and that at least 1 will be due around your due date - apparently it's a law
18. That my natural hair color is naturally a very dark brown and apparently people hate it - I'm keeping it for a while just because I forgot how nice it was to not have to cover up roots constantly, after 15 years of hair coloring, I decided I needed a break.
19. I look better as a red head and people are not shy about telling me that
20. That it costs approximately $1,200 to have a cat's leg removed - of course this was the total after 2 previous surgeries to remove the cat's toes in an attempt to save the leg. Should've just removed the whole leg the 1st surgery and saved us some money and the cat some pain.
21. God gave my dog the saddest puppy eyes ever in order to make me feel horribly guilty every time I leave him alone
22. That my insurance copay to have a baby in a hospital would be $100
23. That my insurance copay to have a D&C is $150 - does this seem fair at all?
24. Lortabs are great
25. I've learned that I can go through 2 miscarriages and survive.

I like your list of things you know that you wish you didn't. I may have to steal the idea and post it on mine. --Katie
