A (Late) Visit From Aunt Flo

Aunt Flo (AF) finally came to visit yesterday despite being two days late.

Ask me why she was late and I won’t be able to tell you. I’ve heard that sperm does some weird things to your body even if it doesn’t fertilise an egg but this was silly.

As expected, part of me is sad because I was genuinely starting to believe that I perhaps was pregnant going on the subtle signs I got and not to mention crazy temperature changes, but at the same time I’m pleased that she arrived because now we can finally start a fresh and arrange attempt number two! The few days waiting for AF soured the fact that we weren’t pregnant because it delayed us arranging new dates around ovulation with the donor – it’s as if a cruel game was being played.

Over the next few months I look forward to trying again and seeing what my body as in store for me – let’s just hope this one is a more relaxing attempt. I am sure that the more times we try the easier it will become, especially when it comes to waiting and, if anything, we’ll learn not to think about it and let nature takes it course… Ha! Who am I kidding?
