Appointment Day

Happy Birthday Chad!!

Since our appointment was at 9:00 on a Monday, Chad and I decided to drive up the day before and stay in a hotel. We did that when we had our first appointment too. It makes it feel more like a mini vacation than a doctor's appointment. And also today is Chad's birthday so we needed to make fun for him too. We arrive at the RE's office a few minutes early and sit in the waiting area. This always makes me feel a little uncomfortable since everyone knows why everyone is there. They finally take us back to the consult room and I get the lucky priviledge of being weighed. Yikes! Hello? I'm fully dressed and just had breakfast, what did you expect? Anyway, the RE comes in and frowns at my weight but says that we will try Femara/Letrozole this cycle with a HcG trigger shot. We will also need to monitor the follicles closely with ultrasounds which can be done in Springfield instead of driving to Kansas City. He leaves and says that his assistant will be in to explain everything. Chad and I start reading magazines, not paying any attention to the time. After an hour and a half, I had to go find someone because they had forgotten all about us! We finally get a plan and are able to leave.
