I called up the drs office yesterday and told the nurse about the spotting. She had me come in today to see the dr.
AF was due today. Still no AF. Still just spotting and 2BFN =*(
He ran blood tests and we discussed in more details all the info we have right now. More tests came back normal and that is really good. He said I ovulated this month at a 2.7? Not sure what that means. He said that the D3 level he'd like to get me to is 50 and so 4000iu daily will get me there soon. I asked him about the 90-100 range and he said 50+/- is where the average person lays and that is my goal.
Then....
Then he proceeds to ask me who my OB is. "You?" And he said, "no honey. I will be the one to get you pregnant and monitor the baby. But I do not deliver babies anymore. I did it for a while and I stopped. I felt like a prostitute" ( I promise you he said this!! LMAO) "I had to make the conscious decision about my purpose in pregnancy. That is monitoring and saving babies. There are other people who can deliver them." That was a problem for me. He is not affiliated with the hospital my son was born at, which is where Dr vajayjay is stationed at. That would mean another OB and another hospital. That was something I wasnt ready to hear. His hospital is a 25min ride. 45 in traffic. "what if there is an emergency??" Then he proceeds to tell me that the peris at the hospital i delivered at are at 'war' with him. They literally refused to treat one of his patients that went in as an ER yesterday. So he has made the final decision to only treat patients who work with drs that are affiliated with his hospital.
I will get back to that in a second...
We spoke about the fibroids and I mentioned to him that a friend said they can affect implantation, and he said "Yes they can depending on location. ALL of yours are on the outside of the uterus. Your uterus is completely smooth inside". I felt soooo relieved!! One less thing to worry about. The biggest fibroid I do have is about the size of a plum, so this should not give me any pain etc. And again he stressed how common they are for women my age.
He asked for a blood draw for me today. HCG/Progesterone. I asked if they would do a urine test 1st and he said absolutely not. I rely on what the blood tells me, not those tests. (Of course I didnt listen went and bought one after the appt and BFN right in my face) And he also gave me four RX to follow my ovulation levels this month. Days 9,11,13,15 of this cycle to see how I do. He said if I dont get pregnant this cycle with those numbers he will be able to decide if we should try clomid.
I came out of the appt feeling a little better about whats been going on. At least my blood work didnt give me more shit to worry about. At least I have a plan if I dont get pregnant. But I was really confused about staying with this dr now. My husband said I can think about it if I want and see the other drs he suggested (the nurse said these 2 brother OBS have saved MORE babies in the 10 years she is there than any other OBs they work with). I could use him to get me pregnant and then go back to Dr vajayjay who was more than competent with my rainbow. Or I could stop all these meds. Go to dr vajayjay and have him create a plan for me. This is alot to absorb in one day and it left me a little confused tonight. The only thing I do know for sure is that *he* can not be part of the plan if I stick with the original drs I had with my son....
What should I do???????? I have a lot to think about here, but my gut is saying to stick with dr vajayjay and so is my husband. Like I have said before, those 2 have a bromance going on and he does care about me like his own daughter (his words). My husband did ask me tonight if we'd be able to keep him on board along side dr jayjays peris and that I was not sure about.
My head hurts (literally). Ive had a migraine for a few days. I just wish AF would show her face so we can move forward.....
