Tick, tick, tick...

That's my biological clock ticking up there. Yeah, just one of the drawbacks to all Michael's travel this month is that a cycle will pass with no chance of me conceiving. Ouch!

Then, as I looked at Michael's upcoming travel schedule, I noticed that he will be gone for the first three weekends in May. They are just short trips, but I could see that one of them is likely to keep us apart at a prime time.

Um, how am I ever supposed to get pregnant if he's not around?

So, I complained to him about it. On Skype, of course.

And I got me a whirlwind trip to New Yawk City for complaining. Yep, we're going to fly in on Friday the 9th, he's going to do a show at the Plaza Hotel on Saturday night, and we'll be home before noon on Sunday! It's going to be crazy!!!

But, if I don't have to write off another month like I do this one, it'll be worth it.

As far as this summer goes, I am prepared to travel with him whenever possible. I won't be teaching summer school, so I'll be free to go. And we are in agreement that if we're not pregnant by August, we're going back to the RE and seriously discussing IVF with him.

Tick, tick, tick...

I'll be here for you every single step of the way, my friend.
Glad you are heading to New Yawk where you will see your fella. Thinking about you. I know how hard it is.

You've got a plan so I hope you two can be foot loose and fancy free until August or when you have great news prior :0)

You're in my heart.

That is so hard. I remember planning trips around the "prime time". Stressful! But a trip to NYC can't be bad, however short!

Kayce said...

NICE!! I can't wait for you to post that you conceived in NYC! :) Fingers crossed!

Oh Boy, do I remember that feeling. I'm feeling a bit of that now because we want to adopt another child and I'm not getting any younger so we'll have to act quickly :)

Hard to avoid the stressfulness of it all....
