I had kind of a Craptacular day today. It started out okay, but it went from good to bad very quickly...
I actually started the day with a pedicure. It was nice, relaxing, soothing, you name it. And my toes looked pretty afterward. =)
I then spent several hours scouring the city for magnetic picture frames. Can you believe that NO ONE sells them! They must have been a very temporary fad and now they are gone forever. I did also conveniently end up buying some new capri pants and two new skirts....just a bonus for my heavy searching...
Came home and got the dogs and took them to the dog park. The day was still going okay.'
Then I had to call the doctor's office about my IUI.....yeah, that's when things got bad. My doctor is on vacation this month so she referred me to an associate at another office. When I called the new office today to tell them that it was too early for my IUI they were all confused and told me that my old doctor's office had to call to reschedule since I wasn't techinically a patient. I had already been told by my old office that I needed to take care of all the calls. Long story short, the new doctor's office told me all of these things that make me feel like the old doctor is totally wrong. I'm worried we're going to be wasting our money this month. The old doctor didn't send any of my files over so the new one has no clue what's going on and is asking me all of these questions I can't answer....because I'm not a doctor! I ended up having a very nice conversation with a nurse and when I hung up burst into tears. I know some of it is hormones, but I really just felt hopeless.
I called my friend Jessica and spent a good 30 minutes just babbling incoherently through my crying. Basically it all came down to the fact that no one seems to be able to give us an answer. I've kinda lost all hope. I've been trying really hard to get it back this month...but it's pretty much dead. My heart's not into this anymore. I don't know how many more times I can handle being disappointed. And I don't know how much longer I can go without getting answers.
Needless to say, I'm sitting here drinking a mocha frappuccino while Maggie lays on my feet under the desk. I'm pretty much calmed down now, still the occassional sigh, and I'm going to go try and read a book and forget anything I heard today.....Or maybe I'll go watch Pride and Prejudice for the 16th time....*sigh*

Have you thought of a second/third/fourth opinion? If you need someone to be hormonal with or even a shoulder to cry on feel free to call...
Sorry to hear it was a not so great day. Just think of the fun we'll have this weekend! :-D
your doctor is an idiot and unprofessional. to not send over your material when she's gone for a MONTH and recommended you to her is irresponsible. i understand why you're second guessing her. do you have more confidence in this new doctor?? perhaps a switch (ala sarah's suggestion) is in order?
smile - we'll keep your mind off of it on saturday!
I actually talked to a friend from work today who said that the new doctor is who he and his wife went to for infertility. They have a kid now. They loved this guy. I told Kendall that if I really like him I might ask to be referred to him early. I don't know that they'll just take new patients.
Good luck Lisa!!!
