Poetry (or Evidence that the 2WW Will Make You Crazy)
Pee, pee, the magic juice
The more you test, the more you deduce
The more you deduce the better you’ll feel
(Unless you are a total freak and test waaaaaay to early in your tww for there to really even be anything but, hey, you never know, right?)
So pee on sticks before your morning meal!
. . . . .
Pee, pee the magic sage
If you get the wrong answer, it might evoke rage
So pee on your sticks but please beware
Not to get pee on your underwear
. . . . .
Pee, pee the magic sauce
But it can’t predict a pregnancy loss
You may feel great when you see that line
But it won’t guarantee that things will be fine
. . . . .
Pee, pee — a magic elixir?
But we don’t know what’s wrong, so how can we fix ‘er?
Just cross your fingers and hold your breath
That this one doesn’t end in death

I love it. Perhaps we should be putting together an anthology of IF poetry.

Pee Pee the magical liquid
If you get two lines, you may have a kid
So dip your sticks at 10DPO
Doesn’t IF really blow?

Pee Pee the yellow stream
Please give me two lines, a girl can dream!
But one line is the way it goes
Please increase my progesterone dose!

Babystep,
I really like the last poem, but I think it should be PROZAC dose instead of progesterone, right?

Ha! These are hilarious! And I love how it’s inspired a whole round of similar quatrains – it’s just like a medieval poetry hoe-down!
