Yes officer, that IS a vat of sperm in my backseat

So the Wife’s cycle has been very, very regular.  She’s has an LH surge in Sundays, and we inseminate on Mondays… (yes, I realize two times in a row doesn’t necessarily mean she’s regular, but it already feels like a pattern). Yesterday we both had crazy days.  She had to run all around northeastern Massachusetts to collect transcripts for her Master’s, and I was busy getting curriculum ready for the start school next week.

When we finally got home, I suggested she take an ovulation test just to be on the safe side.  It was 4pm, and naturally, she was surging.  What followed was a frenzy that involved her calling Boston IVF to make an appointment to inseminate and me speeding to New England Cryongenic to pick up the sperm because it was too late for a courier to make the delivery.  I have NO idea how I made it in less than an hour during rush hour traffic! The woman at the front desk was very nice… though I balked when she told me that I had to buckle the sperm into the seat.  Apparently it needs to stay upright…

So round three was this morning… it was an easy insemination.  Here’s hoping for third time’s a charm…
