At the appointment we summarized our plan for the next few months. After our IUI in the next 2-3 weeks I will call in to go on the IVF list, and we'll plan on IVF in September. Dr O'Keane thinks this is a very good plan. Dennis seems to think we'll get pregnant on our own before then, time will tell. I dont think it will happen but if it does that would be a blessing.
We probably wont see the doctor again until August/ September.
Dr Okeane indicated that I will need to repeat my HSG dye test again, prior to the IVF, as the records are only good for a year. The procedure hurt, although not as bad as I expected. I dont mind having to do that again.
This is our doc (although he has aged since this photo) :)
