No luck again. I made an appoinment with my midwife for my yearly checkup for September 22. I will be a few days past ovulation at that point so, we can discuss TTC and what steps to take if Jared and I go past a year or so with no luck. I know it will happen at some point so, I am just trying to be patient and wait it out. We have 1 tube of preseed left and will plan on using that again this month.
Hopefully I will get my new bike soon. I can't wait to ride on it.
Jared and I will be going to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner tomorrow night for our anniversary. I am excited and looking forward to it!

Only a few more days..
until we find out if this month was a bust or a success. These last few days of the dreaded "two week wait" are the worst.
Jared and I, in the past have touched lightly on the subject of getting me a road bike. We shopped for them on Saturday at the Bike Stop and found one that was a great deal but, still a little out of our price range on what we were wanting to spend. Here is a pic of the one that we may get, if we cannot find a cheaper one that we like:

It comes in RED too but, I like the black better.
Nothing much else is new. I will post again in a few more days with an update in the TTC department.

3 DPO
Today I am about 3 DPO. Could be 4 but, I am not sure if I O'd on Thursday or Friday. I plan on testing on our 5 year anniversary. AF will be a couple days late at that point. I am hoping AF holds off so I can test without Jared knowing about it. We plan on going out to dinner that evening and I would love to present a gift to Jared at dinner and have the positive pregnancy test wrapped inside. We'll see if my wonderful plan plays out this way.
Jared and I have been working on a slide show to show to our families for our anniversary. I am hoping I can announce a pregnancy at the end of the slide show but, it would still be neat without it.
I quit my job at Motherhood Maternity, after 1 day. HAHA. For a variety of reasons but, mainly just because I don't want a 2nd job. Although, I may start cleaning some houses with Jenny but, it would be different because it would be on my own time and I would be with Jenny. We would have fun and it would be enjoyable.
I am feeling pretty good about this cycle. We timed it just right and the preseed will hopefully help out. Of course, God will bless us with a baby, when it's his time. I just hope it is this time!!

+OPK!!!
Yesterday when I got home from work, I took another OPK. This was my 3rd day of taking one. The previous 2 were negative and I really wasn't expecting to get a positive until Friday'ish. Well, much to my surprise, it was positive! Hopefully that means that I will O today or tomorrow.
Let's hope the Preseed helps us out this cycle and God chooses to bless us with a pregnancy!

Motherhood Maternity
I have recently accepted a new, part time job with Motherhood Maternity. I was supposed to go in last night for my first shift but, something with my application did not go through with HR so, I can't actually go in to work until that is straightened out.
I will get a 30% discount after I have worked there for 90 days. I am hoping I will start needing maternity clothes once that 90 days comes!
We plan on using the preseed for the first time on Thursday. I am not expecting to ovulate until Saturday. I am using the ovulation predictor kits again this month. So far they have been light but I can tell they are becoming increasingly darker.
I am so ready to be pregnant again, it is not even funny.

St. Louis this weekend
Jared and I are making a trip to St. Louis this weekend. Gary and Judy will also be going but, we may be taking separate cars. One of Jared's buddies from College got married in March and he and his new wife are having a reception from friends and family from this area. We'll stay the night there and make a short vacation out of it. I am looking forward to going. It's always fun to stay a night away.
I got my preseed and free pregnancy test strip last week. I am really excited to use it this month. I plan on using Ovulation Predictor tests as well so we will know when it is the best time to use the preseed. The last time I used the OPK's, I got my first + the day before I ovulated. So, once I get a + this time, we will not BD that night but, we will the following night and of course, use the preseed. This should all take place next weekend (the 19th-20th) approximately.
I really hope it works this month!!

preseed
Well, "you know who" came to pay me yet another visit so, I am in the TTC game again this month. Jared and I are really getting antsy to get pregnant again. It took us 4 months with Abby and now we are on our 5th month trying again.
I had been hearing some great success stories from different women who have used a product called "Preseed" when TTC.

It is a personal lubricant that is "sperm friendly" and actually helps with the TTC process. Ladies have disucssed it on different online forums and I would say about 80-90% who used it, got pregnant the first month they used it. I am really getting excited to try it out this month and see if we have the same luck.
Of course, I know God determines when Jared and I will be blessed again but, perhaps the Lord made this product available to help us achieve another pregnancy.
