It’s a no go…

7:35am – We are sitting in the clinic, waiting for the nurse to draw blood from the wife.  I am exhausted.  Making a baby is hard work.

12:10pm – It’s official.  Not pregnant.  I am feeling down.  I knew there was only an 18% chance it would work on the first try, but I couldn’t help thinking optimistically. The wife keeps apologizing, which is breaking my heart.  Who knew trying to get pregnant would be so emotionally taxing?

5:45pm – The wife started her period… amazing.  Her cycle is back to a short and sweet 28 days.  We begin the medicine again this week.
