So, I started my peroid on 11/7 and had my second appointment with the clinic. Big Dallas hair was smiles and sporting another black suit. I looked around and realized that everyone there wears black suits except for the clinical staff. Looks sharp. I met with LeeAnn and her cute dimples. She drew my blood with a butterfly needle (didn't hurt a bit) and gave me a pack of birth control pills. These labs were fasting so I'm assuming they did my cholesterol and other typicals along with the AMH level that will determine if I can participate in the study. LeeAnn says it can take 7-11 days to get this back so in the mean time, I'm to stay on these birthcontrol pills but not take the white ones. It has been nearly 13 years since I've been on birthcontrol. (with the exception of the last ivf cycle). I also had to have an ultrasound. Oh, funny side note. I needed to empy my bladder before the ultrasound and I saw a dark room with a toilet so I started walking towards it. Just as I was about to hit the door, LeeAnn grabbed me and said, "oh no, not that one!" I looked at the sign next to the door and it said "Library". I didn't get it. LeeAnn said, "thats where the guys go". To the Library? I still didn't get it and this must have been clear by the look on my face. I saw a toilet not a row of books. LeeAnn explained that room is where the guys go to give their specimen. Ugh. So glad I didn't accidently go in there. Back to the ultrasound: Now, this was completely gross considering I'm on my (.) I apologized many times to Dr. Nackley and medical assistant. Again, Dr. Nackley told me my uterus looks "fantastic" and commented, "here is where we hope to see a baby soon". She is always so re-assuring. She counted the follicles on my ovaries and then it was over. I think me and the dildo cam have gotten along pretty well these past two weeks and I didn't even have to make it dinner! Of course, with all the gel they use in addition to being on my (.) using a tampon was like throwing a hotdog downa hallway. Instead, I used one of the pads they had in the bathroom which reminded me of a surfboard. This was only temporary. At least they have nice bathrooms. The appointment ended with LeeAnn telling me they would be calling me with the results of the AMH level and to stay on the birthcontrol pills until I hear from her. Oh vey, this is going to be a long wait!
