After over a months wait, today is the day. DH and I have our first appointment with the new GYN at 3:40 and I feel like a big tangle of nerves. I don't know what I'm more nervous about with starting the process.....that they'll find something wrong and we'll end up having to pay a small fortune for treatments or that they won't find anything and not be able to explain why we haven't conceived yet. Thankfully Monday mornings at work are usually a bit busy because of the weekend, but now that I'm all caught up and have only 2 hours left (I'm leaving early because it is an hour to where we have to go and DH wants to leave by 2:15) I can't focus. Hopefully these last couple of hours go by fast.
