Kim's Journey To Motherhood

And here we go again

We finally met with the new doctor and got all the tests done.  Everything was as expected on both of our parts.  All of my hormones were in check but my insulin was high.  The Mister’s numbers were better than I expected and provide plenty of room for success.  

And, during the sonohystogram I was told that my right tube was not blocked like previously thought.  Go figure.  

So we had our “Game Plan” appointment on Wednesday with the doctor and we’re going ahead with IVF in April.  Unlike RE1, RE2’s clinic has scheduled IVF times.  This means that they work with your cycle, but they also try to fit more people into doing IVF at one time instead of all spread apart.  At first glance this doesn’t make much sense for the patient, but on the other hand in a small clinic with one doctor it makes a ton of sense.  It also allows the clinic to be less schizophrenic in terms of functioning at any given point in time.  

We made our nurse consultation/orientation appointment for the 19th.  But I knew I’d get my period before then.  Sure enough, it showed up late last night/today.  I’m going in on Monday for a baseline ultrasound and blood work.

And then the fun begins.

I’m excited to be getting to this point again.  I feel that breeze of spring in the air and the possibility of life changing days ahead.
