It's official. We are back on the fertility treatment bandwagon. We have our IUI consultation tomorrow at 3pm. Steven is coming with me. . . thank goodness! Husband should be included in this for sure! I'm not looking forward to this because I can guarantee that Dr. D will say something along the lines of "this is probably not your best option, don't expect anything to come of this". Oh well, we do what we can, right? It's the first steps. It's what my insurance is willing to pay for. I'm not the most optimistic person. . .only because if something good comes of something that I have low expectations for and it comes out as a success in the end, then I'm pleasantly surprised! That was totally and completely confusing but does anyone else feel this way?
In all honesty, it was nice to take a break from being poked and prodded over the last month, but I guess it's back to reality. Too many different doctors/techs have been all up in 'you know where'. If we want to have a family, then this is our only option. I won't lie there are feelings of isolation (majorly - from mine and Steven's families), discouragement, and "why us/me's?" I jokingly told Steven that I'm thinking about becoming a crack whore. . .they don't seem to be having any fertility issues (no offense, but am I right?!)
I'll let you all know how tomorrow really goes. . . . in the meantime, enjoy my favorite songs of the summer!
Yay for Imagine Dragons being a local band!! Love, love, love me some good Indie!
Both songs make me feel like, "Hey, I'm me and that's the way I am. . .so I'll deal with it!"
i don't love the idea of low expectations but, i have to admit, they certainly make like so much easier, don't they? i've definitely started applying that way of thinking in my life the last few years...it's just better than way. you, my dear, are awesome for handling all of the poking and prodding so well. and your taste in music is perfect! anna sun has been on repeat at my house all summer.
