Trying in the Bush

Our journey as we try to bring a miracle to life while living in a remote bush village in Alaska.

We are now over half way through our second month, and things seem to be going pretty good overall. We saw the doctor on Wednesday and found I had 6 eggs about 10mm at the time, the doctor wasn't concerned since I am a late ovulator..and sure enough I did go ahead and surge on my own Sunday at 4. Monday morning we did the first insemination and it all went off without a hitch, Owen was able to insert the catheter without any issues at all (except for cramping.. but that's just me, my cervix really hates to be touched), after we were done with our 4 a.m. insemination he cleaned up while I relaxed in bed, he left the room to wash the speculum and get it put away safely, when he returned he found the thing that shouldn't happen... apparently the vial that the sperm was in had rolled off the desk onto the floor, and there was Lulu, our little yorkie pup, happily licking and chewing away on it. We were both thoroughly grossed out, and I couldn't quit laughing, it was just all so ridiculous!   I am now 3 dpi (days past insemination) and hoping that I can ignore things until it's time to test...I am thankful that there is so much to do during the two week wait, and am hoping that makes the time fly by much faster.
