Business End of the Deal

Well here we are....a few days out from D-Day....or should that be P-Day!! After being silly enough to do a pregnancy test 5 days after insemination thinking that we could possibly get a positive result and being devastated that of course it was negative we have decided to wait and see what nature brings our way. No testing the day before or on the day of the expected period, we will wait and see if I get my period....that in itself will be disappointing enough without feeling like we have "failed" with a Negative pregnancy test as well. Many people have said and will be thinking this is your first try and many people try many times before successfully falling pregnant, but generally these people have sperm on tap and there isn't the same preparation, costs and build up as with Artificial Insemination. Think Grand Final Footy - as with any build up resultant success is sweet, but failure can be devastating and this is what we are trying to keep in perspective. If we stumble at the first hurdle we will endeavour to use the outcome to inspire and encourage oursleves for the next cycle. If we succeed.......well I will be the first to go out and buy a lottery ticket. Until next week  - may the force be with us.
