The butcher, the baker the candle stick maker...

and every other person in Melbourne seems to now be involved in me getting pregnant...and fitting them all in to my schedule is just hard!

So, in the last week I have seen my Kinesiologist, my Naturopath, my Rheumatologist and my Reproductive Endocrinologist (fertility doc for short)!

So lets do a little summary of what they all have to say!

So, Marina, the Kinesiologist.....she can see improvement. I saw her on the same day I saw my chiro and well, lets just say i was still a little emotional but that was good as there were no layers to work through! So...other then draining my stress and testing all my medications to see what is working and what isn't. I have changed my dosages a little....but things look good. She also tested my availability to be pregnant....and it came back as 100%...we both had a good giggle. I felt much less stressed after seeing her and I have found it much easier to deal with people's "helpfull but thoughtless" comments since seeing her.

The Naturopath - well, after last time I went in ready to fight to the bitter death lol. However...the blood bath was avoided...because...wait for it....I HAVE IMPROVED!!! dramatic improvement in my uterus and my ovaries...and his prognosis is that a few more weeks of Chiro....and I should be good to go...namely...that means now! I have started on the Capsela (the last bottle of tonic) and Michael thinks that this will definately settle the crazy periods i have been having...

ok, who was next? That's right...my girl crush Dr Bendrups lol

The Rheumatologist - she is happy with my progress. Nothing much has changed. She is very supportive for IVF to start. She has been in touch with Dr Toledo and they have a great IVF plan for me.

The Fertility Doc - well this was a big one this month. As my cycle has been insane (spotting from cd 20...then that continuing through till day 28...the af starts and goes to day 6..eekkk) so we had to do an internal scan. I should have been on CD 7...however...she has said I am on about CD10...meaning that last month i had a really short cycle...or the spotting has been messing up my counting. Good news again is that all is looking wonderful....nice healthy uterus and ovaries. And she wants me to start pee testing my O surge again.... SO, she is happy to wait till we get back from the UK....and has made us an appointment for the day after we land...and as soon as i get Day ! after that...IVF starts!!
