I am still hopeful...
Today stunk at school. By the end of the day I went to my classroom and cried. I had a lonely day and these might possibly be the worst fifth grade classes I've ever had. They have been getting progressively worse over the past 14 years. But these kids were more blatantly disrespectful than any others I've seen.
But, in spite of the crappy first day of school, I should be in week five now. It is truly amazing to read online what is supposed to be happening if I truly am in my fifth week. I was looking yesterday at the size comparisons - last week was a sesame seed and this week's is a poppy seed. In the fifth week, the heart actually starts to develop chambers and begin to pump blood!!
It is truly miraculous and that is far more pressing than the behavior of these children...
Have you taken a test? You are much more resilient than I was!! I took one (digital) exactly 10 days after I did my home insemination. (a full 5 days before my period was due) And it was positive. Take a test!! I took about 6 the first 2 days!! The best $100 I ever spent! (and took about 6 more over the next 5 days!!! LOL!)
ReplyDeleteI haven't tested yet. I was advised to wait until I was a week past due and that would be Thursday. Maybe I'll get a test tomorrow and do it Wednesday morning... That'd be pretty close. When did you tell your family?
ReplyDeleteHi there!! I did inseminations on Fri Oct 24 in the evening, Sat Oct 25 in the morning and Sun Oct 26 in the morning. I took a digital test on Monday, November 3 in the evening (so 10 days after the first insemination). It was positive, but I did it knowing full well it had very good chances of giving me a false negative because my period was not even due for another 4-6 days. But I could not wait!! I just felt different. And voila! I almost fell off the potty (lol!) I called my mom, my best friend and Christian right then and there in the bathroom while I was peeing on another stick!! I've lost track of how many I did that night, but it was alot. I then did another 6 or more over the next few days...sometimes at work, sometimes at home. It was crazy.
ReplyDeleteI told my group of girlfriends that Saturday, November 8 at our annual Thanksgiving dinner. I know it was very early on, but those I told had been so completely supportive of my decision to do this, that I needed to share with them for if something had happened I would need their support then too. I needed their love, support and joy through the entire process....happy or sad.
I've got all fingers crossed for you!!!
