TTC After a Loss

Back from my dr appt..

I just got back from my appt.. When I showed up they said my appointment wasnt on the computer. So the lady that gave it to me never input it. She also said my dr was overbooked. Nice! So they put me in with the new ob to the practice. I was ok with that...
I didnt have to wait very long before seeing her either. She was sooooooooo sweet! Very down to earth and answered every single question I had.. She thinks that the reason I have not been getting pg is that she thinks I was having annovulatory cycles. (I had not been getting + OPK's) and she said it can cause you to have really heavy periods. And the last time they checked my progesterone it was really really low.. (apparently you can still have a thermal shift and not O)
She thinks that if I am getting a line on my OPK's then I must be actually getting ready to O this month.. She told me to have intercourse tonight if I am O'ing tomorrow... She said "It sounds like you are really educated about this, but I thought I would re-iterate it." LOL She looked over my charts and noticed my high pre-O temps and how my temps seemed a little weird compared to prior to losing Grace ones...
She also said that sometimes it takes your body awhile to get back to normal, especially with all the stress and grieving. She also said she wants to see me back in a couple weeks with some GOOD news.. 
It made me smile..
Im so glad I ended up seeing her today. She was so sweet. She even told me that I am not homozygous for MTHFR, I am heterozygous and thats the better one to have. She said that I may or may not be treated with baby aspirin during pg... It will be up to her or the other dr at the time I get my BFP! I absolutely love this new dr at the practice. She is fantastic!
She is checking my progesterone at 7 dpo to make sure that I O'd.. And said we will go from there.. I asked her how long before they are concerned that I am not getting pg. She said they usually wait a year but with my age (33 yrs old) that they would do tests at 6 months. But we are already starting down that path with the Progesterone test next week.. So yay! I hope it was all a mute point because I will be getting my BFP in a couple weeks!
Im in such a good mood now, she really put my mind to rest about alot of things.

Re: Back from my dr appt..
That is sooo awesome!! I loved reading this! It really makes me feel good that you are getting such good support from the Dr.
It makes a world of a difference just with how you go about things and your mood when you know your Dr is there for you and makes you feel good about things...
Good Luck and hope you get your BFP really really soon!!!
