Today is the half way point on my two week wait for my period. If you are wondering why I am not waiting for my "positive pregnancy test result", read my last blog entry...(read, low expectations) Just the same, it's next to impossible for me to not hold out some kind of hope. I mean just the shear fact that I ovulated gets me all amped up. The last two times I have ovulated, I have gotten pregnant (seriously, how crazy is that!?) Before you hate me for it, remember, I have no babies to show for this great track record so far. To date, not really any signs or symptoms to make me think that we pulled this semi miraculous conception off.
Next topic, caffiene. After the last miscarriage, I was back on the caffiene BIG TIME. I was all about the $.49 32 oz Diet Dr Pepper from QuickTrip. Every time I felt frustrated and angry with my bad luck, I would think, well, at least I can drink this awesome, cold, refreshing soda. (yeah, pretty bad consolation prize) So since we have been cleared to start trying again, I have been weaning myself off, half-caf coffee in the morning, only cans of soda instead of buckets, you get the idea. Well, yesterday, I cut the cord completely. Definitely had a wicked headache for most of the day (I guess I hadn't weaned well enough). But luckily today, I was back in business, no headache and no caffiene. Mission accomplished. Until I get the positive pregnancy test, I will definitely still enjoy a soda on occasion, but glad that I have cut my physical dependence.
Ok, seven more days of waiting.
Yea for being half way through (though I know the 2nd half of the wait is the worst)...
