Long time, no blog...

It's been a while since I've posted. Compared to last week, that is. I've been doing pretty well. This past weekend was spent packing and cleaning. We have our final inspection on Thursday and we are SO excited to see the place! Needless to say, my mind has been occupied with moving and not too much with TTC...at least for now!

I've been bumped down to acupressure twice a week and the doc is confident that I will be bumped down to once a week soon since I'm doing so well. He said that my ovaries are actually doing very well. I'm happy to hear that. I'm very confident that I will actually ovulate earlier this cycle. I can already foresee it happening the weekend of the move too! We'll make the best of it I'm sure :) I'm more chilled out than last cycle. Despite my best efforts to remain calm, I ended up being a basket case. I have to keep in mind our odds and know that there is always a chance to try again.

Otherwise, I have decided to find a new OB. After much thought, deliberation, and talking with Chris, I think that ultimately my OB and I are not a good fit. I had a bad experience with her in January (with her attitude towards me charting, reading TCOYF) but as always, I gave her another chance. She's been fine since then, but I feel like we have a real disconnect when it comes to me getting pregnant. While I know that she wants me to get pregnant as soon as possible, I feel like she's rushing things. Despite her good intentions, it is entirely too early to be referring me to an RE. Have I been off BCP for 6 months? yes. Have I ovulated all those cycles? No. My 1st cycle off BCP was a "half" attempt since I had to have a colposcopy and didn't even know when and if I would ovulate (CD 31). 2nd cycle was anovulatory. So, pretty much until the end of March, we couldn't even try. So, to have gone 2 cycles with coordinated effort and now if my 3rd is unsuccessful, she wants to refer me to an RE. I'm sorry but it just doesn't add up. I have to have a follow up pap this month and I think I'm just going to switch to another doc within the practice and see how I like them. I don't think it's fair to either of us to continue the professional relationship. And anyways, shouldn't you love your OB? With all the intimate things that you discuss you should feel comfortable having an equal dialogue....not one where the doc is talking down to you. I always felt as if she didn't like that I have educated myself on getting pregnant. I've gotten that vibe from her since the very beginning. So, the switch is going to occur and I am very happy with my decision.
