No More Menopause

Ok, y'all, a major step in our journey is finished...no more menopause! We went to our doctor's appointment this morning. After a little bit of waiting and an all too fun exam, the doctor told us there is no need for more shots! He said my hot flashes should go away in about a week. Yay! He is putting me on 2 months of birth control pills (BCs) as well as some diabetic medicine that is also supposed to get things going down there. I'll take them both at dinner time for 2 months. They expect my first period in 3 weeks!! Yippee! Did I just say that? Never thought I'd be happy to see aunt flow, but there you have it. I'm happy.

If everything works itself out the way it's supposed to, then we could start trying to get pregnant in March...the month of my birthday...and the dead center of tax season. If we're not pregnant by May, then they'll try something different. What that is, I'm not sure, but that's what they said.

I am so glad I went to see the specialist. I was dragging my feet for so long, even though Kristin kept telling me to move on to a specialist. Well we did and I'm ecstatic we're on the right track.

Thank you, Jesus!!!!
