“It’s a Menstrual Miracle” December 22, 2004
Those were the exact words that I uttered to my husband this morning. My period finally showed, taking a mere 7.5 days after my last PIO injection. I have directed the period fairy to make a beeline for those in need, but I don’t think she takes directions well. I did my best, girls.
So, I get to start birth control pills on Christmas Eve. What a fantastic Christmas present. Speaking of presents, I am so not into all of that this year. I have no desire to do the whole gift opening thing. Santa screwed me over on the only thing I wanted, so what’s the point. Yesterday my brother called me to ask what my husband and I wanted or needed for Christmas (leave it to the men to wait til the last minute). My reply was, “Either 15K or a baby, whichever you come across first.” Not so tactful an answer, but what the hell.
At least I get to start preparing for round three instead of constantly looking back on this failed cycle. It’s a small consolation, but I’ll take what I can get at this point.

So glad that she came!!! I hope you have a Merry Christmas anyways :)
Glad to hear she finally put in an appearance. I will be anxiously checking for her to show up at my parents’ for me.
Funny, I SO feel the same way you do about Christmas presents this year. When my Dh asked me last week I said 1) a baby and 2) to be able to cut back on work so that I could spend more time taking care of me so that I could GET PG. In our gift exchange at work, we had to list out 5 things that we wanted so the person who got our name could pick one. I even put “a baby” on that list, but nobody obliged me. Ugh.
