Well, quick update.  I had an appointment for my cervical cultures this past week and it went great.  I'll tell ya, I've been through some drama with my OB office.  It is a group practice and I had a run in with one doctor in particular that was not supportive of my surrogacy at all.  I won't go into detail but I'll just tell you she had a very negative reaction when I told her of my plan.  I was ready to leave the clinic because of her attitude regardless of the fact that I've been going to this practice for 8 years, and the one OB on staff, that I like very much, delivered 3 of my 4 children.  I didn't want to chance having to be schedule with this woman again or God forbid have her be the attending doctor at a delivery!!
Well, I needed my cultures done soon and didn't have the time to research new doctors/clinics so I went back.  I agreed to be seen by the nurse practitioner and she was wonderful!!!  She was so compassionate and warm and the total opposite of what I experienced on my last visit.  She personally guaranteed that if I chose to stay she would provide my care along with the OB that I like.  She was so excited to be apart of this journey too and is 100% willing to be cooperative with the RE's office and will work with them during the process.  I was very relieved and I'm so happy to know she will be holding my hand through this exciting process.  She was so sweet and as I was leaving she asked to give me a hug and said some very kind words.  We were both touched and near tears when I left.
Hysterosonogram is scheduled for Wednesday.  I'm a bit bummed because my IM can't join me on this visit but I think it should be fairly easy so I'll be ok.  I just plan to drive into the city (Chicago) and right back home so it shouldn't be to big of a deal.
I'll be sure to post an update after my appointment.  Shouldn't be to much longer and we'll be getting our med schedules and transfer date!!!
