Seeing the RE....

So we had our app't with DR M this morning. It was pretty good. We had a little chit chat comparing our parenting experiences....his little guy is about the same age as Brennan and of course Dr K (his wife) is Brennan's Urologist. It appears that all kids Brennan's age love to play with phones, remotes and laptops...lol. I told him about the Einstein's laptop we got Brennan and he said he needed to go get one too.

Ok well onto the ttc stuff. We did a little history review, discussed Brennan's birth. He said that I shouldn't have any issues with my cervix and that he definitely recommends a repeat/scheduled c-section. He said the likelihood of my having a successful vag birth are about 30%

We discussed the fact that we would like to give it a few months before moving on to injects + iui. He was totally ok with that. Told Will we needed to BD 5-6 times a week....ah I don't think I am up for that....of course he was joking TG and suggested 3 times.

So here is the plan. I have an HSG (booo) scheduled for this Thursday. He said since I had the c-section he needs to check and see if there are any adhesion's in there that may be a problem or may have blocked my tubes.

I will be staying on BCP's for at least a month longer in the meantime I will start back on metformin....850mg 2x per day. Once I am done with my last cycle of BCP's. We will see how things go for a few months.

I have a standing order for progesterone tests at the lab so every 35 days I will get bw and if no O start prometrium and then a new cycle.

I have a rec for day3 b/w for whenever I am ready to start a medicated cycle. Dr M also mentioned that in a few months all the effect of the bcp's on my hormones will be completely gone and more than likely my hormones will go back to their old ways.

Will of course needs a new s/a he will just need to do it within the month....i.e. before I go off the pill cuz there would be no point if his boys have deteriorated more.

I just send my boss an email and broke the news that I will be off most of Thurs and all of Friday (my last HSG hurt like H*ll). Fortunately my temp is still around and can take care things.

Sorry for the HSG. Those are no fun.
