I feel like my gut hates me.




Over the last few days my LH has hit the roof. Luckily, I ovulated. Sweet.

Apparently, the CBE monitor says I was at "high" or "peak" fertility for 4-5 days. Goodness. We'll see how accurate that is after the 2WW. (Two week wait).

Now . . . I have felt like my stomach HATES me for the last few days. Pretty much since the first day of ovulation. It just feels like there's a lot of pressure and movement. Not sure what the heck that even means? I can't quite figure out if it's all in my head, I have a never ending hidden gas bubble, or if something is actually happening--baby style. I mean, how the Hell would I know? Anyone have any thoughts???

Either way, I haven't drank any alcohol (Sigh . . .) or eaten too many crappy things this month in anticipation of good news.

I can only hope. . . .

In addition to this I got an "informational sheet" in the mail from my GYN. It's all about artificial insemination using my man's sperm.

Goodness Lord.

If I wasn't dying to be pregnant before this--now the pressure is on. Not only does it sound extremely unpleasant. (i.e.: Contracting an infection of the uterus or pelvic organs--Nice.) But is costs $550.00 each try. They recommend doing this at least 6 times. THAT'S $3,300!!! Holy S#*^! Yeah . . . insurance doesn't cover a dime. Apparently not even the HSG I had done a week ago. They're so slimy.

It's going to be a long two weeks! Anyone have any good ways to pass the time????

"I see an LH a-risin' . . ."



Tonight we commence plans for the next three cycles of the journey. . .

Do exactly what you did for the last 5 cycles . . .and wait. . . and hope that the HSG flushed some junk out of your tubes and it works. . . . uh okay.

Time will tell. I like to be optimistic, however, I feel like I just did this. Where's my Clomid!?!

I test my LH every day, (just as before). Today began a "high LH day" . So approx. two days from now I should see "peak LH" which = ovulation. Fingers crossed that we time it all correctly!

GYN says if nothing happens in three months then come in, and we should add the clomid 50mg.

Dang. As if I wasn't already waiting for Spring--now add this!
