We Have Eggs!

Woo!! Despite being incredibly sick yesterday (thanks, no doubt to the home-cooked dishes that the international students brought to class Monday night and helped by the prenatal vitamins) I managed to ovulate! We have proof that this might actually work! I confirmed this later in the day by peeing on the considerably more user-friendly stick in the Ovulation Predictor Kit. Two lines! Woo!

I sent this picture to everyone I could think of yesterday and couldn't wait to share it here. Today, the Magic Egg Prediction Machine is giving me a bonus day of high fertility. The little book (that I've read no less than 1,000 times) says that it's okay to have sex today, too, just in case.

Um, thanks, but we're gay. We could have sex 1,000 times and I don't think any one of them would take adequate advantage of this Peak Fertility. I'm willing to try, though.

I cannot adequately describe how relieved this makes me. I was stressing about that 12 hour window of opportunity so much, it was making my eggs shy. But this month, I've been more calm about it, just telling myself that all the charting and peeing on sticks I'm doing is just something we do.
