Decided we're going to start TTC
So last week we decided we are going to start trying. It just so happens I had a re-pap today so I made a list of my current meds, questions about exercise and diet questions I had about before and during pregnacy. And to my disappointment my doctor kinda brushed me off. She told me to not get my hopes up, she told me when to have sex and good luck. I normally love her and while I know she was busy, she didnt really take the moment I wanted/needed to ask my questions/concerns. She told me it could take up to a year to get pregnant so not to be disappointed if it takes that long.
Re: Decided we're going to start TTC
But, what did you want your doc to do? Are you upset she didn't throw a party or do you legitimately have questions? She gave you good advice.
Welcome and good luck! I hope your stay is short and sweet.

I'm sorry she didn't give you much time. Maybe she didn't realize you're one who is actually trying to prepare vs the girls who come in and say "i wanna baby" and then the simple advice she gave is enough to satisfy them. I'm sure she hears that all the time so maybe she just didn't know you wanted more info.
Like pps said, ask your questions here! Our combined knowledge is probably as good as your docs..
Maybe not,but.... maybe so! I'd also recommend taking the charting courses on Fertilityfriend.com. That's a great starting point to understanding your body. GL to you!
In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my LIGHT, my STRENGTH, and my SONG!
