Had 1st RE Appt
Well, today was the first day of having closure and step closer to bringing you into this world. We went to the RE specialist in Englewood and he did a huge background study on both of us. He then did an ultrasound, but found nothing as he couldn't see me ovulating, although I should be on day 16 right now. He is very aggressive and assured us that as healthy young adults we should be prego in no time. he stated that for our age bracket, the pregnancy rate is inthe 90th percentile. You can't get much better than that. He stated that if lost a little weight it may help, which I'm trying and that if Derek stopped smoking, it could possibly help as well, which he is currrently too stressed to do. We're going to finish out this cycle, see if I ovulate and possibly get prego or if not in 2 weeks we will begin a new cycle with more aggressive meds. Also, he is not one to wait, I think he likes to get right in there and take care of business. Next week I will go back for another ultrasound to see if I ovulated later than usual and some blood work to check my insulin levels due to my PCOS and to see if I need meds for that as well. After the next aggressive med cycle, I will have to do injectables, which means a shot a day for 10 days. You should be glad that we truly are dying to have you or else there is NO WAY I would even remotely begin to contemplate optionally giving myself daily injections. Also, I think if need be Derek will get a sperm analysis, but I think that we're trying to see if we can find my mix yet before we start working on him, since we already know my prob and he (hopefully) doesnt have one. Well, its all a matter of time and all we can tkae are baby steps, so one step into the right direction and you should be created with love asap :-)
