WTF Aunt Flow!!!

My GYN visit went well and we had a nice talk and she apologized for what the nurse said, which surprised me, and said if I'm ever nervous or don't feel comfortable with the nurses response, to ask to speak to a doctor. I think I really like my OB/GYN. 

Now I'm patiently waiting for Aunt Flow (AF) to get here so I can call my RE and get on the schedule to have this darn polyp removed. 

Work has been busy and I only thought about my infertility a few times today which meant I was especially busy. 

Side Note: One of my girlfriends is very pregnant and today was her last day at work. Amazingly, I'm not jealous of her like I am most pregnant women. She struggled for such a long time to get where she is today and I'm truly happy for her. 

Try and have a good weekend! :)

GYN Visit: Words of Wisdom

Back in September 2013, I called my Gynecologist's office because I was having mid-cycle bleeding. The nurse told me this was normal and not to worry.


I come to find out many months later that it's a polyp that is causing this bleeding. If I had this addressed back in September I wouldn't be in this torture chamber called: WAITING TO GET THIS SHOW ON THE ROAD!


I've never had spotting until about a year ago. Sometimes it would be so bad that I needed to bust into my monthly lady supplies just to deal with it.


Looking back I wish I had been more persistent. My words of wisdom to myself and every woman out there is this:


You know your body, if something doesn't feel right, get it checked out. Who cares if there are guidelines that doctors follow. You know what is and isn't right. Go with your GUT!


I'm scheduled to have my annual exam tomorrow, and we're going to have a nice long chat. More to follow :)
