Half way there

It's been two months and SJ, SM and I have all experience pregnancy symptoms. Who knew PMS and Pregnancy could share so many symptoms? We realize that it's our mind playing tricks on us, but it doesn't help. We're all Doing-the-Deed (DTD) on a VERY regular basis. Not to name names, but some of us are going for the every day method and the others for every other day, some only during the "window" and others for 24 days straight! Poker night has turned risque now that the boys are getting laid regularly!

We bought a bulk order of pregnancy test and SM also bought ovulation sticks (who knew?). Evidently you can use the ovulation sticks starting 7 days after your period to see when you will ovulate, than you can start testing with the home pregnancy tests (HPT) starting 7 days past ovulation and keep testing until your period comes. Sounds like fun, right? It's not. Every negative test is like a little chip off your hoping heart. But, we're two months down and two months to go (keeping in mind our 20% success rate each month, we should all get pregnant in about 4 tries) so we're halfway there!
