Appts, shots, pills and patience

So, we are starting the process again. We have decided a 3rd baby
is in the cards for us. Went last week for the initial appt.
We have to use a different doctor this go around cause my other doc is not
covered anymore by our insurance- boo!!!
So- luckily I really like this doctor so far. I like his office. I like his staff.
When I went- I was nervous- cause technically Germans do not
like to have you get preggo before your other baby is a yr old.
Supposedly it makes your pregnancy high risk...
So I walked in nervous that he was going to say no- cause C is only
ten months old.
Surprisingly- he never hesitated.
He was game fromthe beginning to help us out...
Soooo. I had an internal ultrasound. I have NOT missed those.
Clear as day- both my ovaries are filled with follicles...a side effect of
the PCOS. My hormones are all outta whack... so the follicles
are there but not released.
So- I am on ten days of medicines. 7 1/2 pills a day. Not going to lie- it
has been tough taking them. I will stop some of them after 10 days... then within a few days I should start my cycle- then on the second day of my cycle- we start the shots again.
I am excited to start the shots! Clearly- not about actually giving myself shots!
But excited about what it means!
Not going to lie though... all conversation around here are about pregnancy, getting pregnant, having a baby etc. Everyone is either preggo or trying to be! It is nuts.
While I am SUPER and honestly excited for them all- it is heartbreaking.It is heartbreaking to see them all just "getting preggo." They have no clue what it means to have to go through
such a process... it sucks. Am I allowed to tie the word "sucks" to babies? I just did. Ugh.
