So!

I will be calling the attorney tomorrow. We have a couple of things to talk with her about. I am going to be getting my period in the next day or day 1/2.. So, next month it will be our first try.

I need to figure something out-- I get a positive opk on or about CD 26.. should I be trying 48 hours BEFORE that, or within 48 hours AFTER that?? I read a womans blog that stated she was going to be trying about 48 hours BEFORE she should be getting the +OPK, and now, I am totally second guessing myself.

This weekend was wonderful. We sat on the deck.. played cards.. grilled homemade pizza... and relaxed.

I lost 7 lbs this week. Thankyoujesus.

Mic and her sister (I guess that would include me, too-- cuz I live here) are hosting her parents 40th wedding anniversary party in our back yard in September. That means biiiiiggg projects around the house and whatnot. Mic and her friend DJ worked on the invites this weekend (The "save the dates" were sent out weeks ago) - he has his own graphic design company... and he used the picture below as part of the front of the invite. They rock the hizzy. And I think the picture is adorable. They love each other THAT much, still, to this day.

Hi there - the timing depends on whether you're using fresh or frozen. The fresh stuff lives much longer, so some people start before the +OPK and continue 'til they know they O'd. If you're using frozen, usually you wait 'til after the +OPK. Good luck!

i second what lizzie said. the freash stuff lives for up to 5 days, so if you are going that route, and have access to several donations, then you could start before the positive opk. but, if you are using frozen, or if you only have one or two donation options from your fresh donor, i would wait until you get the positive opk. good luck! starting is so exciting!
