Two steps forward...

One step back. This seems to be the way our infertility journey has gone. I finally made an appointment to go back to our fertility specialist, only to find out that he was retiring. So basically, we have to start all over again. We won't have to go through most of the testing again, but I did have to go back to my doctor on Post, get a new referral, and make a new consult for a new doctor (and that includes tons of paperwork that we just did 1.5 years ago).

This time, we're going to a doctor in Lonetree (Denver). I've heard good things about him, but the drive itself makes me wonder if this is the right thing for us. Although I'm not sure yet, I'm betting that he will be more expensive than our last specialist. Another issue is that Josh will most likely have to go to Kentucky for work between the months of April and August - which doesn't leave us a lot of time to do an IVF.

I don't want to sound like a glass half empty type of person but it is discouraging. I'm trying to stay hopeful about this new doctor and even get excited something thinking that we could be months away from getting pregnant. Our first appointment is in two weeks....so you'll be hearing from me then :).
