So many plans...and time just flies on by.

cd10. Already? Wow...this half of the month sure does seem to go quickly!

We began our OPK today. KB thought she felt a pain in her ovary like when she ovulates...but it is kind of early for her as well...who knows, maybe the clomid threw us out of whack last month. No clomid this month. We have been reading a lot about it thinning the lining, and KB's period was so so light...so we are going to go it alone this month. KB is also going on an antihistamine flush because it decreases EWCM. So she is sneezing up a storm without her allergy medicine...and I am daydreaming about a time when we tell our kids how hard we had to work to get them and guilt-tripping them with, "your mother was miserable...she sneezed for 3 weeks and had really itchy and puffy eyes because she wanted you so bad."

Swimmer pick-up is on Tuesday, and maybe even insemination that night...we shall see.
OPK was negative....not quite time...good because I had a lot to do this weekend....and we don't have the tank of baby-possibles yet.

I feel good about this month. But if it doesn't happen, I will also be okay...because I know that many of you have tried for a very long time and that often it happens when we least expect it...randomly and without reason.

That said, I sure hope this is the month...if not, we won't be able to start again until February/March, due to some timing issues with us possibly moving next July/August and KB needing to qualify for the family medical leave act. If we find out that we are staying in Chicago (which we will know on February 23rd), then we will start right back up again, and if we are moving, it will unfortunately be a 9 month wait until we can begin again. That is plan B in detail (because I am big on context).

But let's hope plan A works.
