11/9/2017 0 Comments Doctor's ordersI went in for my post-op appointment yesterday. I got off work an hour early & met Nate at our house. Then we headed to the office, about an hour drive from our house. I was feeling stressed & nervous as usual. I wish I didn't feel so stressed but since the majority of my infertility doctor's appointments usual end up with me hearing bad/sad news, I can't help but feeling stressed. We got to the office/hospital & we immediately seen by one of the surgeons who had done my surgery, Dr. Wasson (Dr. Wasson & Dr. Magrina were the doctors who did my surgery). She was so nice & friendly & first answered any questions that we had.
Then she had me undress from the waist down. When she left the room I started undressing & took my shirt off too, then realized that I didn't need to do that. I put my shirt back on & all the sudden she was knocking on the door to come in. I grabbed the sheet & then sat down just in time! She used a speculum & tool to check how everything looked & how it had recovered from the surgery. She said that there was one little area that needed some nitrate to heal a little more, so she put that on. Everything else looked good, so overall it was good news! I told her that my fertility doctor, Dr. Amols, had wanted me to come in for an HSG test to check my fallopian tubes but that we had wanted to try & get pregnant naturally for about 2 or 3 months first & she said that she thought that was totally fine & that from what she had seen we shouldn't have a problem getting pregnant naturally. I had also been a little worried because I haven't started my period yet this month & normally would started by Sunday or Monday. She said that when she was doing the test, it looked like I might start in the next day or two, so hopefully that happens! I am so thankful for Dr. Amols, Dr. Magrina, & Dr. Wasson. They are all so kind & have made this experience the best that it could have been. I feel so blessed that we have been able to have such amazing doctors. Dr. Wasson told us that when we get pregnant, to send pictures of our baby, because she usually doesn't get to see those results, just normally doing surgeries. I hope so badly that we can get pregnant. I am still hoping & praying that we might get pregnant by Christmas, but I trust in the Lord's timing. After our appointment we went to Midici for an early dinner. We got their Italian salad which is soooo good, margherita pizza(also amazing), & a chocolate hazelnut gelato to share. It was fun having time to spend together & we were both so happy & relieved that everything looked ok. Nate was also very happy that the doctor had given us orders to try & make a baby, haha! After dinner we stopped at Last Chance & got some Christmas presents for each other. Then we listened to Christmas music on the drive home. I am so excited for Christmas already!!! I'm thankful for our answered prayers & feel so blessed that the surgery & my recovery went well.
