CD 11

I'm done with clomid for this cycle and have moved on to testing with ovulation predictor kits. I've called the nurse at my clinic with pre-IUI questions and let my boss know I may be out one day next week. My husband has done the same (so much harder for him, but he worked it out). So now we wait. We're supposed to have sex, but to abstain two days before the insemination, but how do I know when that will be? My ovulation is not predictable to the day. We're going to have to do some guessing and hope we get lucky.

It's all on my mind, but very much on the periphery, which is kind of weird. I've given myself so much more to focus on in the last month, between my two part-time jobs, class, friends... that I haven't had much left over for dwelling on this cycle. Which is so, so great. I really don't need or want the anxiety. Of course, after the insemination, it might be more difficult to ignore.

Anyway. That's where we are. Last time, I ovulated on CD 15. I don't think that necessarily means that I'll do so again, but I'll be damned if I'm going to google that. Not right now, anyway.
