Getting the Ball Rolling

I had my annual lady app today and it went well. My lady bits "look good", so that's always nice to hear, haha! I saw my doctor's nurse practitioner and I told her that we were TTC again. I asked how long we should try this time before asking for help. She gave me the standard "1 year" speech. I told her about my short LP's and she tried to tell me that LP's are always 14 days and that doesn't change month to month, and I go "yeah, mine are 7". She explained to me that some women miss ovulation and just think that they have a short LP, and that you can tell when you ovulate by fertile CM, O pains, temp spike, ect. I told her that yes, I get all of those things around CD20 and then 7 days later I get my next period. *sigh*

I did finally get through to her, though, and she said that my cycle would have to be monitored to confirm late O and LP length, which I expected. She set me up with an app to see my doctor at the end of next month to discuss all that. So, yay! It was a very productive app! I was kind of expecting to have to try for a while on our own. We'll still try in the mean time, obviously, but I'm glad the ball is rolling. Take home baby #2, here we come! :)

Lots of Love,
