the 21st day of my cycle is when??

Ok so maybe I'm just slow because I have never had to count days of my cycle. I am scheduled to start my shots on the 21st day of my cycle. I ask when is that??? Well I got a very fantastic clean cut answer so I will share it with those who have not had to count days of their cycle.

Answer is:
Trust me, these are not dumb questions!
Day 1 is full flow before 5pm. If full flow occurs later in the evening, the next day is considered day 1 of her cycle. Day 21 is the 21st day of her cycle with day 1 being
full flow day

I had to leave in the little part that said "these are not dumb questions"!!

So we are moving along, R is getting the meds in line and going to send them up. Only worry at this point is that he is saying that we may try to transplant first week of Oct. Well if you've been reading along up to this point you will know that we are planning on being in Disney Sept. 27- Oct.4. Awww, so I sent R a text reminder. Hopefully we'll be able to do it maybe Oct 7-9. I have to go down for 3 days because the transfer has a period of 3 days that it may be best for the transfer.. Fascinating all the stuff you learn. Which I think was one of the reasons I wanted to blog this journey to teach as well as share my experience.

We're signed......

Well we signed the contract FINALLY. I feel like that it's taken forever I have been very lucky that it hasn't been because we have been quibbling about it. The hold up has been from the lawyers I feel. Well both party's apparently have been very busy. R and I on the other hand have been solely focused on our goal. It does look like maybe our timeline will be pushed back though. I still have to start shots at some point and R has to go "donor" shopping. So origianally we had set for August for possible transfer, but it may be as far out as September. I did plan a vacation in Disney for late September woo hooo food and wine festeval. It depends on the tranfer date but it could just be the food festival for me, here's hoping.
