Post 14

I looked at the calender which had been counted down to 29 days This was the pattern that was followed from day one. I placed a X on it showing the day of the insemination and then counted the remaining days until the next X, which was the day I was to start my period. Every night I would place a check mark on the days date and waited until the next. As the days got closer to the big X I would hold my breath and say a little prayer. One by one the days were marked and then suddenly tomorrow was the big X day. That night in bed I prayed and prayed asking God to not let tomorrow come, and if it did, let me not start my period.

I woke up that morning knowing what was happening. I had the feeling, I know that once I got out of bed that would be the end of it, and my period started.
