We're officially infertile according to the definition. AF showed up Saturday and we've moved on to cycle 13. Even Danny was bummed about it, especially after I told him that if this had been our month I would have been due on his birthday. He seems to be on board for doing some testing now too. All this time he's been saying "it will happen when it's our time" but I think he's realizing now that "our time" might not be coming. I talked to him yesterday about scheduling an appointment to start testing. I told him our options are to go to an OBGYN to get some of the initial testing done or straight to an RE. We know we don't want to do IVF and I'm afraid that going straight to an RE will mean we'll be pressured to do IVF. I also don't currently have an OBGYN and when I do get pregnant I'll need one.
So after going back and forth with the decision in my head I called the OBGYN this morning. Unfortunately the first appointment she had available that would work for me is on July 11. So I have 25 days to wait. I'll be at the end of this cycle by then though and that means I'll be able to start the testing soon after meeting with the doctor. One of the first infertiliy tests done is the CD 3 test and I should be expecting my CD 3 for cycle 14 to be on July 15. Oddly enough, I'm finding that I'm pretty excited about the upcoming appointment. At this point I just want to get some questions answered and I feel like now I've gotten the ball rolling in the right direction!
