Well just got the results from my HSG, everything is all clear, or "within normal range. Everything looks fine," as the nurse put it. Then she seemed very eager to get off the phone. And THEN I realized I had no idea what to do next, so I called back. Yep, normal, yep need to schedule a follow up. But between my crazy schedule and their booked calendar I couldn't get an appointment until the 21st. Ugh.
I guess that's fine, right? There's no way I was going to get in during the next 2 days anyway (before I O), and more than likely I'll be on about CD 7 or 8 at the time of my appointment, just in time for next month's O, maybe... Right? Hmm...
Sorry, just trying to rationalize all this to myself, otherwise I am going to obsess over it for the next three weeks.
This is a good thing - my HSG was clear! Come on Kit, cheer up! And get ready for some serious BDing the next few days!

HSG and more waiting
Sorry sorry, I know I haven't posted an update on my HSG adventure. I started to the other day but then hubs came home and wanted my attention. So here it is!
The HSG itself wasn't too awful. It basically felt like cramps, and kind of icky, and I almost passed out afterwards, but it wasn't the worst thing that I've ever been through. However, right before we left the house for the appointment, DH decided to tell me that his friend called that day to let him know his wife is pregnant. It started a huge fight that didn't really end until after the HSG. No fun. But it gave me the opportunity to show the hubs that brochure "What Infertility Feels Like" (thanks Katie). I always assumed he just automatically understood my crazy emotions, but I realized that's unfair. He liked the brochure and gets me more now. I think this journey, although it is really hard and sometimes pushes us apart, overall is bringing the hubs and I closer together.
I don't have the results of my test yet. The nurse told me I could try to ask afterwards but that they usually don't say and I'd probably have to wait to hear from my doctor. To be honest I was just trying to imagine I was somewhere else the whole time so I completely forgot to even ask. My doctor's office said they usually get results in 3 to 5 days and would call me when they have them. So hopefully it's more liek 3 days and I'll know very soon. Otherwise you better believe I'll be calling them!
I think I'll be Oing in the next few days so the marathon has begun. This will be the first "for real" 2WW I've had in a couple months and already I feel my hopes getting up... Yeah, and I call myself a pessimist. I'm so ashamed!! ;)
Oh! We used our fire pit for the first time on Saturday night! It's so pretty, but still not totally done. Some of the capstone bricks aren't sticking to the cinder block base, so we have to epoxy them on, then still have to do a little border of pavers around the outside of the base. I think this is what home ownership is all about though - dozens of little almost-complete projects...

A cornucopia of updates
Wow what a crazy week! To update: Vegas was great! DH won a few hundred bucks playing blackjack, I didn't end up shopping (not really enough time when it came down to it), the restaurant for the wedding reception was FAB (giant lobster AND the best filet mignon I've ever had), but DON'T stay at the Rio. I was just expecting it to be really nice, and it was sub-par. The only good thing I can say about it is that the room was big. The decor was outdated, there were tears in the wall coverings, tiles out of place in the shower, the bed was hard, and the couch didn't look sanitary enough to sit on. My dress was a hit with the hubs though :) too bad we forgot our camera...
I spent the last 2 days travelling for work, training 3 of our branches on our new system. It was not bad, and I did buy a new pair of sandals and a cute new bag to keep my spirits up as I was away from my hubs. I do love spring!
Today is my HSG. I'll be leaving work in T-minus 45 minutes to meet up with the hubs and head on down. I'm a tad nervous, but I figure it can't be much worse than a colposcopy, which I've had twice. I'll just pop some advil and hope for the best.
