We're going in...

So, all my big talk about waiting until September to see the fertility specialists was just that, big talk because we caved and I made an appointment for next Tuesday. Honestly, we were really going to wait but now another potential problem with me that would need to be addressed sooner rather than later has popped up. When we were at the urologist for my husband to get his physical and the doctor mentioned that I should discuss endometriosis with my doctor. This was a while ago and I didn't really think about it but I got my period yesterday (did not need my sad little cup of pee!) and I checked out the symptoms of endometriosis and I found that I have quite of few of them. So, now that we haven't been able to get pregnant, I have a lot of these symptoms and endometriosis gets worse with every passing month I figured I'd better see my doctor.

When I called to try and make an appointment, I swear it was like a black flagged pooped up next to my name because the receptionist made me talk to one of the nurses and then that nurse talked to my doctor and then called me back and the consensus was all the same, you need to see the specialists. It was like there was a little star next to my name with "is refusing to see the specialists and there is nothing else we can do for her here!" So we bit the bullet and we're going in so much sooner that we thought, but we're still going to play it safe. We've decided to keep moving forward with trying to find the root of our problem, but we aren't ready to do any assisted fertility treatments. It is hard to stay always hopeful, but I don't want to think of the sadness if I admitted to myself that we might never figure out what the problem is.
