July 2009: The Plan

TK’s best friend got engaged and was planning an Ecuadorian wedding for either May or September 2010. TK was the Best Man, but even if he wasn’t, this is a wedding we HAD to go to. Back then, friends were actually more important than trying to conceive – imagine that! I created an excel spreadsheet (surprise, surprise) that calculated what my due date would be based on if we got pregnant in a particular month, and blocked out the months that would leave me in my third trimester for the wedding, when travel would be a no-no.

The wedding ended up being planned for May. So, we were going to start trying in November. Even if we got pregnant on the first try, I would still be only in my second trimester by May. There. It’s settled!
