first visit w/ RE today - nervous
We have our appointment this afternoon and I'm not sure what to expect. I was warned they would do an ultrasound, I'm guessing I should probably expect an internal as well? I have no idea how I feel about this - relieved that I might finally have answers? Pressured to consider IVF? Apprehensive about what they'll tell me or getting a definitive no, you have no chance of conceiving on your own? I'm just nervous all around.
Re: first visit w/ RE today - nervous
Half the time it ends up being a problem with your husband! Dont stress, and good luck~
PS- They wont push IVF bc most insurance companies wont allow it without trying a few IUIs. You will most likely schedule a SA for your husband and the tube-dye test to check your tubes.
Good luck!!
The RE shouldn't push you towards IVF unless that is really the best option in your case. You probably filled out a bunch of paperwork and, based on that, the doctor will have some recommendations, probably for some tests, unless you've already done that.
Yes, you will likely have an internal ultrasound today, and just that will give you and your doctor some information that will help chart your course of treatment.
Remember, we have a wealth of knowledge and experience on here, so, come back and ask questions when you get home!

I remember being nervous and completely overwhelmed afterwards!
We sat with the dr. for about an hour, they did bloodwork on both of us and then an internal u/s on me. We also met with the insurance department to find out what was covered and what was not covered.
And we came home with a suitcase full of information.
*always remembering Annaleigh Lucy*
good luck! like the pp's said, they wont pressure you to do anything. they will discuss all the options and come up with the best plan for you based on your tests and medical history.
keep us updated!
