Lucky Number 13

Today has been a GREAT morning. First off, after over a year and a half of this baby making stuff, I officially got my first ever positive ovulation reading, on one of those at home kits. CRAZY. After peeing on those things for like a year and never seeing that damn smiley face, I honestly have to say I never thought I would see the day.

As you know, I ovulated early last cycle, while in Denver, CO, with my husband in Austin, TX. Not the best of situations, so we missed our first IUI window after the surgery. I had a sneaking suspicion that I may just be an early ovulator (is that a word?) so I bought a kit to make sure I wasn't missing things this time. And it worked! I went in this morning, on my lucky day (13), wearing my lucky sweater and lucky shoes, and luckily we have a big ole lucky egg, just waiting to be fertilized. :) We go in tomorrow morning for our IUI and are staying oober positive. Positive Thoughts = Positive Pregnancy Test...right?

On a side note, my friend Sarah who went through a very similar baby making story just delivered her beautiful baby boy this past weekend. It was such an amazing feeling to know there is light at this very long, very dark tunnel we've been in! She has been such a crutch during this process. It sucks that we were in this boat together, but I was really nice to have someone to share the ugly truth with. I am so happy for her and for her husband and for their new little family! And I can't wait to meet him.
