The Deed and other ramblings...

Yep, it's done.

One of the most note worthy things you may notice about this blog is that I will take no prisoners and I will most likely overshare to my hearts content. Just an F.Y.I. so you can leave now and never return if that's not what you are in for.

So, onward to too much information!

....

Ash and I did the sexy times, it was brutal and overly painful, but it's done. I am glad to have done it for his sake, as he was frothing at the mouth due to no sex for two months at that point. It took alot of lube and a little tylen.ol after but it wasn't the tramatic experience I had thunk up in my mind. My ladybits were beaten already, right? I wouldn't say it was the most pain I had endured, no where near childbirth...but it that was a 10 on the pain scale, this was a 5.

Speaking of ladybits. My six week checkup was upon us yesterday. The nurse that I adore has left the practice and I was left with this "mama doesn't know best" bosy version of her. It was not pretty. She reminded me how to lay on the table for a pap smear, like I hadn't been laying on one every damn day it seemed during my pregnancy. I was able to talk with dr. McHippy about the pain I had been experiencing...I left out the sex part, whoops, didn't know that wasn't okay'd yet. What I thought was a bad vericose vein from pushing was actually unhealed scar tissue from my tear which makes me wonder just how big that tear was, considering the pain of the "scar tissue" is nearly front to back. There is absolutely nothing that can be done for it, being allergic to good pain meds is awesome, so I get to suffer for another 6 weeks to 4 months while my ladyparts go back to normal. Yay! for more painful sex! Also found out that one of the stitches was still present...aka no sexy times allowed for another week or two.

I still owe a breastfeeding explanaion post and a bodymorphing post for those of you I know want one...I promise to get to it soon. We are having major computer issues but those should soon be fixed.

Today is my birthday, so far I've broken all of my rules about taking care of yourself first and no chores. Damn, being a mom on your birthday stinks. I've fed Madelyn breakfast in bed and had to do the dishes/trash/laundry morning routine already and it's not even 8am. The closest fun times ahead today are a trip to Targ.et. Ash had to work his first day shift, so it's just me and the little lady all day. Diapers! Drool! Spitup! Poop....all types of Poop! ahead...

Chores

Over the next few days, we'll be coming in to ovulation time. Ashley and I have a new term for said sexy times: doing the chores. Being a healthy adult male, he never thought sex would be a task to be completed on a checklist like chores would be.

When this is all said and done, and a baby is made, he can get back to the good old doing it just to do it.

Remembering what this really is about...

And we're back to Pregnancy talk.

All of these ovulation calendars vary on when I should be fertile enough to make a baby. The one at the bottom of this blog says I'll be ovulating Saturday. First Response's website says Sunday. Another Monday. Don't even get me started on what the watch says...if it wasn't a gift from my brother and his wife, I'd have chucked it out a moving vehicle Day 2.

Jeez. How could they all be different? Isn't there a general formula for these things? The only way to really cover the bases is to just start doing it every other day starting Easter?!

I'm really trying this month to focus on drinking more water, downing less caffeine, eating better food (no more Snickers lunch and dinners). My thoughts are that is could hurt, hell...I'll try anything to help it move along.

Missed opps...

Shit. I was off a day and I think I may have ovulated early. This doesn't make things very "hey we're pregnant" things happen when you get off by a few days, but in the crazy possibility that it works anyway....I'll shut my mouth and hope for the best.

My Chart.....

Hey....I bet you can't guess when we're getting down!

MONTH 1:
3/07/08 - First day of your cycle

3/20/08 - Fertile
3/21/08 - VERY fertile
3/22/08 - time to ovulate
4/05/08 - End of cycle
4/04/08 - A home pregnancy test may work now
4/08/08 - No period? Maybe you're pregnant!
12/20/08 - If you are, this is your approximate due date.

MONTH 2:
4/05/08 - First day of your cycle
4/17/08 - A little bit fertile
4/18/08 - Fertile
4/19/08 - VERY fertile

5/03/08 - A home pregnancy test may work now
5/07/08 - No period? Maybe you're pregnant!
1/18/09 - If you are, this is your approximate due date.

This sucks...

I work, come home, Ash is at work. I wake up, he's asleep, I work, come home, Ash is at work.
We are living two seperate lives it seems.....and it just so happens this kind of schedule comes when we need to be "hanging out together."

Oh well. I get to drink at Trivia for another few weeks before we try again if this doesn't work.
(We won by the way! First ever Win!)
