Here we are in April, we have taken a break from renovations on the house over the winter, we will be back at it again soon.
January of this year we had our first appointment with a fertility specialist, only took 8 months to get in *rolls eyes*
They sent me for more test and last month I had an HSG test and it was determined that BOTH my Fallopian tubes are blocked. Great. Just great. I have a follow up appointment In 2 weeks where we will get some more information, discuse IVF and book me in to have a laparoscopy to confirm the blockage. When things like this happen to you, you start to notice pregnant people everywhere, it feels like the whole world is getting pregnant but you. In the midst off all this my husband and I decided to take a vacation to clear our heads and come to terms with the fact that we are now facing IVF so we booked a week in Panama. We just returned yesterday from an an amazing relaxing vacation that was definitely needed for the two of us to feel normal again. We stopped in at my father in laws to have dinner and share the highlights from our trip when we arrived my brother in law and girlfriend were there as well. We all sat down for dinner when my brother in law announces that they are pregnant. Excuse me. I didn't hear that correctly. Pregnant? What a punch to the stomach. I get that other people live their lives but I hadn't even been back in the country more that 12 hours from a vacation that was supposed to put our infertility problems on the back burner only to have this throw at us. Don't get me wrong, I am happy for them, but that announcement could have waited a week until we settled back into the reality that is our lives. So here I am again feeling sorry for myself. So much for trying to ignor reality. So April 14th we will find out more and what our next step is, here we go, back at it in the great waiting game.
