For Lizze and Others Dying to Know...

Today I went to the OB/GYN to talk about what I may or may not need to do to attempt to conceive another child when Chris gets home in July.

Basically after a brief visit Dr. M decided that we will work to make sure that things are ready to go and in working order before Chris gets home. He said that because I already had a diagnosis of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) and knew my reproductive history very well that he had no issues with going through the motions of doing all the "standard" tests etc. I go back next week for blood work (oh joy - yep just love visiting the "vampires"). Aside from the blood tests there are a couple other things (that I'm not in the mood to go into at the moment) that we (read I) have to do to make sure that I am ovulating on my own. (Which nursing can hamper by the way - not make completely impossible but he did say that with my previous history of being anovulatory that he doesn't think I will be a reformed "fertile Myrtle")

So there you have it ;)
