Consult

Yesterday was our consult at the fertility clinic. It was a little frustrating. I got a call at 3:30pm on Tuesday and I assumed it was a reminder for our appt. on Wednesday. No, it was to say that the doctors office scheduled us with the wrong doctor; is their anyway you can come in earlier? your doctor is not working tomorrow afternoon. The down side to that was that Casey was just out of town for a friends wedding and could not take off, plus we have had this appt for 6 weeks. Long story...Casey was not able to come, but it was not that big of a deal. Basically Casey had an SPA two weeks ago, she had called and given us a little bit of info, but she wanted to go over it in more detail. They also wanted to discuss IVF some more. So it was just me and she discussed that the SPA they did on Casey, well the SPA they attempted on Casey, they were unable to complete it. Apparently, he has good sperm count and descent mobility, but for some reason they do not live very long. So they are saying that the sperm do not live long enough to make it to my uterus, not to mention my issues with endometreosis and PCOS. Bottom line is God is amazing and he can perform a miracle any day, but as far as the medical/science world goes, Casey and my only chance of having a biological child will be through IVF. We got the price, which is $13,250 plus $216 for IVF class and additional blood work (not sure that price?). Whew! that is SO crazy to me. If it works, AMAZING! if it does not...trying not to think like that, but really hard not too! The IVF process takes about 5 to 6 weeks. We go for our IVF class June 9th and learn about everything. From there we will see when we will actually begin. I will keep you updated with the process. I know I will need to type it all out. I ask for any prayers and support as we begin this journey together. HOPING FOR THE BEST!!!
