Yesterday I had my first gynaecologist app regarding the next steps for fertility tests. We've been TTC now for 12 months, off the pill for 14 with what would be our first.
I went alone (OH got stuck at work) and I'm so overwhelmed by it all I don't really know what to expect. They've given me three blood tests (day 2, day 21 and rubella) and two scans (pelvis ultrasound and HSG). They've also sent my OH for testing too.
I went home and explained everything to him and felt really down and emotional about it. Not sure he understands how I'm feeling and he just doesn't get it. I was then getting ready to leave this morning for work when I got a text from my MIL saying how chuffed she was that we were wanting a family etc and that she couldn't possibly want a better mother for her grandchildren - which is lovely and it totally caught me off guard. So I just sat and sobbed on the kitchen floor. (I've also not told my family yet).
Think I've overreacted and I'm just extremely emotional anyway (CD 5 and just coming to the end). Anyone else at this stage and don't know what to expect next or anyone been through it now and can shed light on the scans etc. I was told last night but I was that overwhelmed it hasn't gone in!
Sorry for long post! Just needed to get it off my chest x
