Yep, that's right folks, after 13 weeks and a couple days, my HCG is finally at a not pregnant level! Eh, what's a 13 week wait among the infertile!? AGONY!! That's what!
As soon as I got off the phone with my nurse this morning, I was dialing the Reproductive Endocrinologist (RE) - yep, I have him on speed dial. The nurse there was like, when would be a good day for you to come in - yesterday would have been great I wanted to say. First available appoinment - if i have a conflict at work, I'll just quit. ;-) Only kidding.....sort of. It was my lucky day, they have an opening at 12:45 tomorrow. According to the nurse, I will talk to doctor K again, then we will likely get started with whatever bloodwork they can do. I asked if i needed to bring my husband, she said, it wasn't necessary but if he was able to come they could do his required bloodwork then as well. Just as a reminder, we are doing a full work up of tests related to recurrent pregnancy loss. After my appointment tomorrow, I will provide ya'll with some more details of what tests I am doing when and for what.
Right now I am in a little bit of shock to be getting started this quickly - I was expecting the RE to tell me that I had to be at the start of a new cycle to do all of the testing because I vaguely remember him alludint to that at our initial consult. Maybe that was just for a certain test? Either way, I am ready to rock and roll - I feel like I have been stuck in neutral for the past three months and Mrs. Type A HATES neutral. It is so counterintuitive to every instinct I have. If you have a problem, you fix it, you don't sit around and think about fixing it, or talk about fixing it, or plan how you are going to fix it - you just fix it. And I am ready to BE FIXED!!
Operation "have a baby" is back on!
I am so glad it's finally over - 13 weeks is total again.
