Docotr's appointment

Well, I finally had my appointment (I'd only gone for pap smears previously), and basically, since we are older, and since we are already timing everything right (and literally checking EVERYTHING already - I brought my bloodwork from last month, all my FF charts, and a page full of questions with me, LOL!) - and my cycles are really long...she is completely ok with being very proactive about everything - so now I'm super excited!!
And, hey, I still have a chance this cycle - right:)

Ok, so this is the plan...
For Matt: Sperm Analysis (he's going to HATE this)
For me (after my period): Hysterosalpingogram (gaack!) - its where you check to make sure the tubes are clear - ohh, she said that my cervix was in a good place, slightly rotated back:)

Then, we are going to do another completely non-medicated cycle...but, I asked if it would be ok to do Soy on CD4-8 (I bought the soy at the store after my appointment - so I'm ready to go), and she said that wouild be fine, so I'm going to do that to try to speed up ovulation...

After my next cycle, if we dont conceive (at that point, it will have been 6 months since we started - even though only 4 cycles) - and everything checks out, then we will be referred to an infertility specialist, and can start medication to get the party started...

ANyway, she was super nice, and basically read my mind with everything I was thinking - I'm very numbers oriented, and wanted to get things checked out beforehand, and she was very accommodating with everything that I wanted...she thinks that I might be getting my period late because I am kinda underweight for my height...I am not ready to do much more than I have been about that...which is just to do less cardio...and eating tons of coconut oil and avocado:)
