Cycle 2, 12dpti

Goodbye Cycle 2. Hello AF. I didn't even have a chance to be upset about this cycle not working. I guess mostly because I knew it wouldn't work. Sex never got us pregnant before, so why would it this time? There was a split second this morning when I thought maybe I was pregnant because the smells at the breakfast table were really getting me. Then after lunch, went to pee, and surprise! AF even showed up a day early! I guess my wish from yesterday that AF wouldn't be late was granted. Oddest part of all, not a bit of cramping whatsoever. Not my normal headache that always goes along with AF showing up either. That has got this one little corner of my brain in denial that this is really AF. Really, it is. Bright red AF.

According to my RE, day 1 of cycle 3 doesn't officially start until tomorrow. They say you need to have full red flow before noon, as in wake up and it's there. AF's flight came in at 12:35.

Cycle 3 is going to be marvelous though. First of all, I got "the third one's the charm" going for me. If my ovaries do like to trade off on who is in charge each cycle, this will be the month that Mr. Righty takes over and that is just the side that I am rooting for. If I end up with my IUI on day 13 of my cycle like it was the last two times (or timed intercourse this time around), that will be a Saturday which will make juggling DH doing his part and me doing my part and the kids not being there far more simple. So, bring it on!
