Tami's Pre-Pregnancy Journal

 
Tuesday, December 1, 1998

Wow, what a long hiatus I took. I was away for Thanksgiving and had a great time with my family except for Wednesday when I had some kind of 24 hour flu bug, yuck. My MIL's wedding was a lot of fun. They seem really happy together and it was nice to catch up with people that we hadn't seen for awhile. We stayed in a very seedy motel and Larry was struck with the flu bug Saturday night after the wedding which meant that I had to drive us home through the city (New York). Thankfully traffic wasn't bad. We are both feeling better now and I am up to my eyeballs in papers and studying. I feel totally overwhelmed and out of control and cannot wait until next Friday when classes will be done and one way or another all my work will be done. Another bad thing that happened yesterday was that Larry's car died. The mechanic thinks it may be the alternator, I wonder what those cost? A lot probably.

Ok, now for happier, baby related news. I am not charting this month but expected to O on Saturday the 28th because that was day 13 but I didn't (no pain at least). On Sunday, day 14 I felt a duller pain than usual on my left side (I always feel a sharp pain on my right, never on my left) which I think was O. I guess it could have been some other kind of pain but I don't think so. We bd'd on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday so hopefully we covered all of our bases. I am happy that I O'd and hopeful that O'ing on the other side is a good and different thing. I do wonder though what is happening to my clockwork schedule. Last cycle I didn't O until day 15. I guess I'm just happy that it is happening at all.

So that is my short and sweet update. I probably won't post again for awhile. I have a policy test tomorrow (gasp) which I am not ready for at all. I also have two papers due on Monday (one is done, one is started), a paper due on next Wednesday which is huge and not started, and a paper due next Thursday, also not started. So, you understand my panic? Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and say a little prayer that I survive until December 11th and maybe I'll get good news on that day.
