psychosomatic pregnancy . . .
it's so funny, I just read MommaC's post and here's the deal: I taught in Queens this afternoon, then on my way home, I felt nauseous. My first thought was "OMG, does this mean I'm pregnant?!?" follwed quickly by "oh wait . . . it's 4pm and I didn't eat lunch, so really I'm just hungry." Then my brain went "Hungry?!?! Does that mean I'm pregnant?!?!"
The IUI WAS rather anti-climactic this morning. It was yet another new doctor I hadn't met yet, he was very nice and extremely nice to C (everyone has been really nice to her, he was just extra courteous maybe) and explained to me exactly what was going on during the IUI, which I really appreciate. It seemed over in about 2 minutes. It just does seem weird that all this money, and planning and tests have been all for this 2-minute painless procedure.
I am determined to try and stay busy (shouldn't be hard with my 4 jobs) and not obsess too much about it for the next 2 weeks.
C starts jury duty next week "Grand Jury" style. I had 2 days jury duty last year, and it wasn't bad. I got 80 bucks and got to eat lunch at our favorite restaurant in Chinatown. Of course, I wasn't actually chosen to be part of a jury. She starts on September 11th, which is rather ominous.
After I got home from teaching today, I took Ruby for a walk in Riverside park. I feel guilty like she's a "neglecterino" here since it seems like C and I have both been so busy lately and we haven't been paying much attention to her or taking her for long walks. She's SUCH a good dog and will be so gentle with any babies that might join our family.
