Kelley's Diary EntriesDiary Navigation: |
January 24, 1999

Right now I am on day 21 of a cycle that should be around 30 days, so I have no news about my own attempts to get pregnant. I do have news about my pregnant cat!! She had five beautiful kittens last night. She kept me up until 5:30. She came and got me from the living room when she started pushing. I feel awful because after the second one was born I was too sleepy to stay awake. They don't come out fast: it took an hour and 45 minutes just for the second one to come.
We are really hoping this is the month for us to get pregnant. The OB/GYN told me at my preconception visit that we should have sex at least every other day. We have been doing pretty good on the weekends, but the week is pretty hard. This is mostly because I have to go to work early and he doesn't. Life isn't always fair. I guess I will live though, because I get off at 3:30 and I have the afternoon to make doctor appointments when they become necessary.
I hope I have more news next week but until then, positive thoughts to all who need them.
