Finally
Whether it’s the pregnancies or the hormonal manipulation or both, it’s astonishing to me how much my body has changed in the last couple of years. Used to be, I was regular as clockwork. Period came on the morning of the 29th day, without fail. No cramps, except for that morning, about a half hour before it started. One cramp. A mere twinge. Totally ignorable, unless you were waiting for it, and then you could calmly take care of yourself, with no fuss.
That has changed. Not only have I been cramping for about a week, but my warning signal has disappeared entirely, and I guess I’m now on a 29-31 day cycle.
Grrrr.
Of course, good news is that I’m not going to have to take another day off work on Friday or Saturday to go in for my check. Good news is that having the fancy pregnancy test in my hand did the trick this morning, after the abysmal failure of teas, exercise, wine, coffee, sex, white clothing, lace, etc. Good news is that we can finally get this baby-makin’ show on the road!!!
Yay! So glad AF finally showed. It was a birthday present, perhaps?
Happy Birthday!
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And Happy Birthday!

I went in for my new “baseline” scan today, too. Does that mean we’ll be cycling on roughly the same schedule? That would be fun.
Happy birthday!

YAY FOR GOOD BIRTHDAY PRESENTS
I am eagerly following your journey.
Yay, Susan. Good thoughts your way.
Happy birthday! I think your own body had to wait to give you a birthday gift. Hoping and wishing this is your best year ever, filled with joy and success in all things. Oh, and I am soooooooo jealous of your dumpling soup dinner. Gotta find something good like that in Seattle. I lived in San Francisco for 10 years and was very spoiled with so many different regional and excellent Chinese food places.
Yay! Get this party started! Looking forward to following along…and then following the fun pregnancy blog!!!!
Yay and Happy Birthday!
Yay!
And yep, ART stuff has totally screwed up my cycles too.
Yay! Happy Freakin’ Birthday to you!!
What a “nice” present!
Happy Birthday!!! I am so glad that things are underway!
Nice of that bitch to drop in finally, and in time for your birthday! Hope it was a happy one. Wishing you lots of GOOD thoughts this cycle.
