Hello Happy Face

So last night (after my 4th ovulation stick test that day) I finally got that smiley face!

I was so happy, I was running around the apartment with Dave there screaming "I'm ovulating! hoorah! hoorah!" He was hugging me, I think he was just happy not to see me worrying about it so much. And wait-- it gets more pathetic-- I then kissed the actual smiley face. I know, I know--it's sick.

Well day 15 is pretty good for the LH surge to happen considering all I hear is that the first period after a miscarriage may not be a normal one. I want to be normal and fast-- and I'm thrilled that my hormones are getting back on track-- I am owing it to my acupuncture treatments twice a week; so thank you Dr. Chen.

Now if only we could try this month, but we're listening to doc's orders and waiting until after the next period.

We're going to DC for the weekend to visit friends, and it will be nice to relax, have normal regular, untimed, passionate sex and maybe I'll even have a glass of red wine-- it's funny how the pleasures of life now were things I always took for granted.....

Seeing that smiley face brought such a relief last night and I am thankful for that. It's these moments that keep me going throughout this very bumpy journey....
