1st Testing.

We had a wonderful Christmas weekend with my husbands family.

Monday morning was our appointment, I woke up early out of excitement and the need to shower! I passed my mother-in-laws room and she was awake while everyone else was still sleeping. I took this opportunity to tell her about our plans. I didn't really go into full detail, I just told her we need to see a specialist.

She was very excited for the prospect of new grand kids, she was happy for us, she made a point to also express her gratitude for the grand kids she already has. I still feel bad that I didn't involve my honey in this conversation, but it was such a wonderful moment for us as mom and daughter to be sharing. I fell in love a little bit more today!

At the doctors office, my honey left to do his SA. He was gone for so long I was super worried that he wasn't able to perform on command in an unfamiliar place....and WITHOUT ME!!! However he did good! We were talking about the size of his sample, or what we though might be a the lack of size, but the doctor said it was normal and all his little guys are plentiful and great swimmers! They got a swimming score of 2.5, with 2.0 being average!  **Go little swimmers**

Since I was on the 2nd day of my period (still odd to me that I actually started) the doctor was able to look at my ovaries to see how many follicles were there and the size of them. I still need to research why there are many follicles, I thought there would only be one?? Anyhow he said my ovaries were a big and "juicy", yes he used that word, lol!

I know I shouldn't have asked, but before the doctor left our room, I had to know what our chances were looking like after these 1st rounds of tests and knowledge of our medical history.....he smiled and said everything is looking great.

Next will be a trial transfer and then sometime in late January I should be starting stimulating shots.

Here we go!!!! :)
