*Update* RE - advice
Hi all! My gyno referred me to an RE who I meet with for the first time tonight. I'm really nervous and scarred of what will be said. My gyno thinks I'm not ovulating and of course being told I need an RE to help DH and I get pregnant made me immediately think I'll never have kids. My friends keep telling me it will happen when its right.
Any advice for what to expect with the RE tonight? I'm hoping I don't have PCOS but have read that many women with PCOS had had beautiful babies. I know there is hope but just wish it wasn't this difficult.
**Update - Dr. Mullins is great and very nice! I liked that she was very open and explained everything very well. She didn't want to overwhelm DH and I and just fed us the information in small amounts. She did bloodwork on both of us, sono on me, and DH has to do a SA. During the sono I was nervous as she saw the "string of pearls". She believes I have PCOS but waiting on the bloodwork. She seemed pretty confident that she can help get me pregnant. I am trying to keep an open positive mind about all this and hoping we are able to get pregnant and have a succcessful and healthy pregnancy. Just hoping nothing else shows up in all the bloodwork!

Re: RE - apvice
REs can do amazing things. Not ovulating can be very easy to remedy, so do not give up hope...you haven't even met with the dr yet!
Just take a deep breath and good luck tonight. Chances are your first month will be lots of blood tests and an ultrasound to see what's going on.
REs get women pregnant every day. You will have your baby, too!

Go into tonights appointment with a clear mind and positive thoughts. RE's have worked wonders with so many woman having problems getting pregnant. You are doing a GREAT thing by going to a RE and not waiting it out. Good luck and I hope you get some answers on what's going on!

Re: RE - apvice
I agree with everyone else. . it's frustrating to not just be able to make it happen but going is the first step in figuring out. Good luck and i hope you get some answers and a good plan if you need it!
