As you already know, today was my appointment with the baby doctor to talk about "the situation". It didn't really go as I expected but then again I didn't really know what to expect. I have to say that the nurses were super nice today {they are always nice but today even the chick checking me in said "so you want to have a baby Miss Meagan?"}. I did the usual stuff that the nurse does and then I went into the conference room and thank God for that! The exam rooms are always so cold and you can only read the same brochures/posters so many times without having them memorized! When the doctor finally came in {which btw was 45 minutes after my scheduled time...I really don't understand why doctors have set appointment times because they are always late!} the first thing that he said was "so, you want to get pregnant huh?", then the next thing he said was "are you getting frustrated with it?". Of course my answer was YES!! He shook his head and said "you can't do that, it will never happen if you get frustrated"....gee thanks, like I didn't already know that! After talking a little he decided what should happen next {and he said that we can do it whenever I'm ready, which was nice to hear}....
The first thing that needs to happen....a semen analysis. BAHAHAHAHAHAHA I'm sorry but it's funny and I give you every right to laugh at that! The hubs...well he doesn't think it's so funny, me...I laughed uncontrollably when I told him about it but honestly I'm just happy that I'm not the only person that has to do something.
After that is done then we wait until my next period starts and then it's my turn to get something done. Within 7-10 days after I start I have to go to the hospital to have a procedure done to make sure that my fallopian tubes are open {that is if everything from "the analysis" comes back ok} which involves some kind of dye being put in there. Sounds fun doesn't it? After that is done and we find out the status of my tubes I will be put on a medication that will help me ovulate more.
Cross your fingers and your toes...and anything else that you can cross and hope for some good outcomes!! In the mean time I'm going to try to relax and not get so frustrated about everything in hopes that it will help everything along....and now we just wait for the right times for everything to happen.

Well your tone seems much more at ease with the whole situation, and that's great! I'm glad that you have a set plan to get things figured out. (I love that the semen analysis is first, haha.)
Keeping you in my prayers! Your future baby is SO lucky to be so wanted.
Thanks!! I'm trying to just "give up" and let things happen the way the are suppose to...I just hope I can keep this mentality for longer than a couple of days! I love that that is the first step too....and it totally makes sense because if that is no good than there is no point in checking my tubes!
Good luck with everything. I will be keeping you and your family in my prayers. Semen analysis... bahahaha finding that funny to read about makes me feel 12 again.
It's good to hear that you are keeping your cool and finding a little humor in the situation. I think that will help you out TREMENDOUSLY.
Good Luck with everything! I love how the doctor tells you not to get frustrated. Seriously? Anyway, we will keep you guys in our prayers.
Like you said, you weren't real sure what you wanted to hear but I think this is better news than worse. i will continue to keep you guys in my prayers and cross everything I can cross. Keep staying strong babe!!!!
