My suggestion would be to first make a list of questions you have for your doctor the next time you see her. Once you get those answered and before you leave the exam room, ask her if there is <i>anything</i> else you need to know in order for whatever procedure/medication they are prescribing to work properly. To me, the bottom line is that it is YOUR time, YOUR money and ultimately YOUR family on the line here. It's OK for you to give your doctor that reminder. You are her customer, after all. <br /><br />Regarding the blog censoring, I think that's pretty normal. It's only natural to wonder who's reading and what they might be thinking. Still, I find that my most cathartic posts are those where I truly let go and write from my heart. <br /><br />You know I'm always around if you need/want to talk about any of this. I like your motto that YOUR baby just isn't quite ready yet. I do think there's truth in that. While we were dealing with IF and then later while we were in the waiting stages of adoption, I picked a symbol of hope for myself. In my case it was a cardinal but honestly it could be anything that makes you feel good. Anyway, throughout that entire journey, every time I saw a cardinal I took that as a sign that I was on the right track and that things were happening exactly as they should. For me, symbolic things like that really help me keep it all in perspective, especially when the going gets tough.<br /><br />Hugs,<br /><br />MelbaMelbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16058896619253076094noreply@blogger.com
