Picking up the tank today and waiting for a positive on the OPK. Most likely it'll be tomorrow or Saturday, but there's a chance it could be today. Fingers crossed!

She suddenly got a very, very slight nosebleed today. She's never had anything like that before. The weather isn't dry and she doesn't have a cold. Some googling tells us that nosebleeds are occasionally, possibly, anecdotally correlated with implantation.

It's eight days after the first attempt and seven days after the second. Definitely too early to test tomorrow, though we might give in and do it anyway. But if that nosebleed really was a sign of something, we might possibly know in a few more days.

We shall see!!!

Another negative this morning, but it's only 10 days past ovulation. Still pretty early. Keeping my fingers crossed!

Still a negative this morning when she got up to pee and then went back to bed. 11 days after the first insemination, 10 days after the second. Gah, this is nervewracking. I think that nosebleed has made us both incredibly hopeful, but I'm worried about how we'll both feel if it turns out negative. On the other hand, my wife is still asleep, and it's almost noon (we went to bed around 2:00 am last night), which is very unlike her. She's been sleeping more these past few days, but her mood has been very upbeat, so I don't think it's depression-related. WHOOOO KNOOOOOWS.

We're going out of the city for a brief vacation to Massachusetts on Sunday, coming back Tuesday. We were originally going to leave Friday, but that's the day her period is supposed to arrive, and the first few days are always uncomfortable for her, so she doesn't like to travel around that time. Plus she'll be really disappointed if she's not pregnant, so I think she wants a few days to sit with that before heading out of town.

Man, I really, really, really hope she's pregnant. Waiting it out over these next few days is gonna be rough.

Still a negative. My wife is very down on herself about it. I keep telling her that A) There's still a (~20%) chance it worked and B) Even if it didn't, it's just a numbers game; we did everything we could, and it's nobody's fault if this wasn't our lucky month. But she's very sad and constantly searching for some way to blame herself. It hurts my heart.

Still a negative. Her period's due tomorrow. Pretty unlikely at this point. Ah, well. Maybe next month.

My wife is taking this so hard. Ooof. I wish there was something I could do to help her feel better.

Had a dream that I was pregnant last night. Felt really happy about it, but also sad that it wasn't my wife's kid. I remember saying to myself, "Aw, man, now we have to have two kids, even though I only wanted one. We have to have a kid related to my wife! We just have to!"
