Day 1 beginning again

September 1, 2006

With my upcoming birthday we've had a few guests come in from out of town to help celebrate, not counting that it's labor day weekend and all... right?  My favorite of all these friends is my aunt, Aunt Flo. 

Hah... you totally thought I was serious weren't you?  People don't come in from out of town for a birthday in my neck of the woods (unless they're my pals who are still in college, who will come home on the weekends regardless).  So... anyhow, today is cycle day 1, and I didn't take provera or anything else to induce it (although I'm not sure if I should have gone for it or not).  Either way, earlier this week I talked with Eddie and asked him what he thought and what he wanted to do as this is "our" decision to make together.  He said he wanted to give clomid one more shot... and if nothing happens then we should go ahead and make another appointment with the new ob/gyn that the new insurance will cover.  Which, all in all, doesn't sound like a horrible idea.

When I first began this baby making journey I totally had to HAVE IT NOW.  Since I didn't get it then, the wait is seeming to be a little less horrible as the months go on.  I didn't cry or get upset at all this month about not being pregnant (although, I don't think that we even tried hard enough this month to actually get pregnant, anyhow).  So... we'll give it a pretty good try this month.  I'm optimistic, hopefully it'll work.  I really would rather NOT have a July baby, as I've always dreaded going through labor while it's horribly hot out (or even being pregnant in the heat).  Not sure why... but alas, I don't want to.

So, yay, I'm turning 27 on Monday.  Last year was the first year where my birthday really wasn't a big deal... and this year is following the same suit.  I don't know, it just doesn't have that magic that it did when I was younger--and it probably shouldn't--should it?  I pretty much know exactly what I'm getting, what we're doing, etc.  Nothing surprising, I guess.  One of my clients realized it was my birthday Monday and said "But I think you can take us out to eat to celebrate!".  Hah... I told him he was taking me out.  (to which he said "uh, okay, whatever".)  But regardless, since it's a national holiday (as all my birthday's should be), I am OFF work!  Wahoo!

Well, I've gotten the graph paper printed up, the temp already taken to begin it, and I'm ready to rock-n-roll this month.  Let's just hope and pray it actually works and happens!
