Swim to my egg, little spermies!

Ruh. I know that I'm not even supposed to be thinking about baby-making right now, that I'm supposed to be getting my body in gear so that it's a healthy little garden wherein our seed can grow (gag!) but, babies (well, babies to be) abound in my world right now and it's making it hard not to think about how much I'm missing this experience. I'm feeling hopeful in the fact that over the past few months quite a few of my dear friends that have been struggling to get pregnant have finally succeeded. I am so happy for all of you! (Though I will readily admit to a twinge of jealousy with each announcement. I'm only human.) So hopefully within the next few months I'll get to join the ranks of preggatude. In totally good lady news, I am like 90 percent sure that I ovulated this past month! And I had a normal, like 6 day period! (Normal in the sense that I only had to spend one night sick in bed and didn't work my way through a box of super-tamps in only a few days...gross).

My friend Jill is starting a new project that I thought some of you might be interested in. Jill has struggled with fertility issues, but has been blessed with a baby girl and one on the way. Because she so intimately understands the struggles in trying to get pregnant, she's trying to create a sort of online support group of women and their partners who are struggling, doctors who really want to help, etc. If you are interested in being part of this, leave her a comment on her most recent post about "baby bump in the road."
