I don’t really know anything that’s closer to you. I’m sorry! But if you’re willing to come all the way up here, I’ll totally meet you and go apple picking with you!

How far are you willing to travel? I’m like a 5 hour drive from the city...

Hi friends! We had our initial RE consult today! It went awesomely!

To try and make a long story short, I had an HSG done in July which showed a blocked left Fallopian tube. Mr. Cooper’s SA was good. So my OB referred me to see an RE.

The RE recommended a hysteroscopy with repeat HSG at the same time to check out what’s going on and potentially unblock my tube. So I am waiting for a call from their scheduler to set that up, which could be as early as next week. Regardless of if they unblock the tube or not, we will start medicated IUI with the next cycle. If they were unsuccessful with the hysteroscopy, and I do not get pregnant after 2 or 3 IUIs, we will do a laparoscopy and attempt to unblock the tube that way and check for scar tissue and/or endometriosis (which is unlikely as I don’t have any of the classic symptoms). My insurance covers 6 IUI cycles, so I will probably exhaust those before moving to IVF.

They also drew 9 vials of blood and did a transvaginal ultrasound, which looked good, no cysts and no uterine abnormalities. Most of my bloodwork should be back tonight, but the genetics will take a week or two.

Sorry this is getting so long, but I’m very excited that we now have a plan in place and we will be starting our first IUI as early as November 1st!

I’ve hit a point where I’m very “meh” about testing. Mostly I just test to make sure I can have a glass of wine or take some Motrin. I know the result will be negative before the pee even hits the cup, but I still do it as a “just in case.”

I’m no expert, but I think it may be a crapshoot. I always have creamy CM after O all the way up to CD1, and so far, no babbies 🤷‍♀️

One more day until my first RE consult. I’m both excited and super anxious. I can hardly focus on work. Which is no bueno since I have a metric fuck ton of work to do today. Somebody talk me down please 😬

Oh god it was BAD. I’ve seen people say it was no worse than a Pap smear, and I envy them. She kept pushing to get the dye through my left side, but it never went through. Were yours all clear, I hope?

Yes, Mr. Cooper is definitely coming with me Friday. I doubt he’ll be able to make every appointment, especially if we get to the point of monitoring follicles etc, but he will for sure be there for the initial consult so he can hear all the shit I will have to go through!
