I LOVE this graphic. I found it on pinterest and can’t find the source. But I just thought it was so perfect.
Still waiting on my period to start. I’ve had a little spotting off and on, but nothing more yet. Of course. If it starts today, or even tomorrow, we still have a shot at an IUI this month. BUT, I finally made another appointment with Dr. B. We haven’t seen him since the end of our monitoring cycle in August and I just really need to know where we’re at and what he thinks.
I want to pick his brain about a diagnosis. Will he want to do a lap? I’m just not content with his wait and see/ conservative approach and I want to know why my cycles continue to be so wonky despite the huge amounts of extra hormones we’re pumping into my body. So we go see him again two weeks from yesterday.
I also made an appointment with a local chiropractor to get my uterus, my hips, and my lower back checked. My cousin and her husband are chiropractors and really advocate using adjustments to keep the whole body healthy. I chatted with her last night about it and she said there are a lot of connections between your hips, lower back, and uterus. I wish I could go see them, but they live in Grand Rapids. 😦 I’m going to see this guy on Saturday morning. I’ve always had a lot of hip and lower back pain, so maybe there’s something to this. Any tips or personal experiences about chiropractic infertility treatments?
In other news, I’m pushing through final projects. One week from tonight and I’ll be done for the semester! I’m drinking too much coffee and not getting nearly enough sleep. And I’m definitely not eating well. Prenatal vitamins? Oopsies… Thank goodness we took this cycle off.
On Tuesday, Snow White had her first vet appointment. It went well. Afterwards, we met my sister and her goldendoodle, Mr. Smith, at the dog park so the cousins could play together. Snow White never stops running. 😉
It’s finally cooling down here (again). The greyhounds are back in their jackets when we go outside. And they’ve both fallen in love with our wood burning fireplace. 😉
