NEGATIVE #5

Christ! You’ve never ovulated this late (ok, ok, you have, but who wants to cloud the issue with facts?). Now you’re really running into trouble. The nice lady at the sperm bank said they don’t recommend keeping sperm on dry ice longer than 5 days, and if you don’t get a positive OPK soon, you’re going to be pushing that to the limit! But you have no choice but to go on. You become familiar with dry ice resellers throughout New England, and when you finally get those blasted two lines you do the inseminations and cross your fingers that there are still one or two live ones somewhere in that teeny tiny sample. Now if you could only have a drink….

CONGRATULATIONS! YOU DID IT!
