Giggling with preseed and hips in the air
Ok, so this journal entry is merely to share my humor with the rest of us in an already tough state! ;) Sometimes a little laughter is good for the soul...
I'm ovulating. But did I giggle when I saw a little smiley face this morning on my OPK! I ran into the room and jumped on the bed! When you're 40, these things are important. ;) So we've been dancing like crazy and will for the next few days too...I'm exhausted! My DH made a statement during breakfast this morning, "I wonder if this is what it feels like to be a studded horse"..Oh I spit my coffee out! :)
We started pre-seed this week. First time I pulled it out of the box, I had no idea there were syringe-type elements to use! We giggled like a bunch of teenagers. But figured it out of course - The next element of this month is to raise your hips. Well, as I'm sitting there I'm thinking - Wow, hmm, I guess I could twidle my thumbs....:D!
So here I am. Hips in the air to defy gravity and just a giggling! I'm reflecting on this whole journey as of now...trying to figuring out pre-seed, ovulation, symptoms, cervixes, and each morning trying to find my mouth for the bbts in the morning! Yes I'm squinting just to read the ole' screen.
Here's a day in the life of a 40yo ttc....:)

We do the hips in the air trick too....only this month we added softcups. THEY ARE FABULOUS!!! We BD and then I slide it in, throw my legs in the air for 20-30 mins like usual. Only when I get up to walk around, all my BFs little guys stay up there swimming around....hopefully through my cervix up to meet my eagerly awaiting eggy! Nothing leaks out what so ever, no matter what the activity. Each time we used one, I kept it up there for 6 hrs. I read that 12 hours is good, but I just can't imagine keeping it up there that long. Anyway, I'm hoping that did the trick this month. If not, we're definitely going to use the softcups again and again until we get our BFP.
