Radfertility is finally open!!! I made my first appointment with them and it’s on the 29th of June at 2 p.m! It’s just going to be the initial exam and ultrasound. We’re essentially doing all of this to begin the diagnosis process. I’m nervous I just hope nothing is majorly wrong to the point where we can’t conceive ya know? I just feel like it’s been one let down after another everytime I take a pregnancy test.. it comes out negative.. I check again.. negative..leave it for 5 mins check again and on and on…Sorry lol that turned into a mini rant there. Anyway. I’ll be sure to keep you all posted on what’s going on and what the dr says and all that Jazz. Oh by the way today marks exactly 1 month clean!!!
No weed
No cigs
No alcohol
An entire month! I’m so proud😩😭 I also have still been dieting (of course I have my cheat days but) drumroll I’m down a pants size!!! 🔥👏💁🏿 well..that’s all for now my loves I’ll update you again in 8 days. 😛
Let me just introduce myself and give you a little insight of what’s going on. Hi ,I’m Shanelle! I’m from Delaware. I’m 27 and I’ve been married to the LOML since 1.20.2020 👰🏿🤵🏿 (newlyweds!!!💞). We’ve been trying to conceive for what seems like forever! (A Year) . I felt as though something wasn’t right (I mean c’mon we’ve been going at it like rabbits 🐇 🐇🤸🏾♀️😂) so I made an appointment with my OB/GYN to see if he could tell me what’s up. Just for a little back story I’ve previously went to an OB/GYN and she just wrote me of as having PCOS without having tests done to confirm or deny her suspicions so I moved to Dr. Picazo. I had my 1st consultation with him told him what was going on and he had given me my blood tests the same day!! I can’t tell you how happy that made me! (I’m a sucker for immediate action.) Fast forward to about 2 weeks later I get a call from Dr. Picazo and he tells me that my blood work results are back and that it seems as though I’m not ovulating regularly, other than that the rest of my results look fine. He suggested that I go to a fertility specialist in order to further my pregnancy journey. I decided to go with RADfertility (Reproductive Associates of Delaware). I had my first “appointment” with RAD on May 13th over the phone due to Covid-19 closures. I spoke with Dr. McGuirk. She asked me the normal questions a Dr. would ask new patients. After all was said and done I was told to quit smoking cigarettes (shocker), weed, and to not drink alcohol. Yup all my fun gone but it’s for a great cause and a healthier life! Dr. McGuirk also put me on a strict diet.
No Gluten
No Dairy (OMG NO CHEESE?!) 🧀😭
No fruit (due to high sugar content)
I also have to intermittent fast (no food from 7pm-11 am)
Anything that tastes good is gone.
So now I’m on a diet and patiently waiting for RAD to open back up so my first in person appointment can be made. I’m not gonna lie I’m stressed, so is my husband but.. we’re making it work. (he’s not dieting but he did quit smoking ❤)
Hi There! Please be patient with me as I build my blog! I’m documenting my journey as I deal with infertility. I’m hoping this blog will help other future mommy’s to be who are also struggling with infertility and don’t know where to start, and also anyone who just wants to know more! I will be keeping you guys updated as much as possible! Questions are welcome! Overall this is a very confusing time! I don’t know what’s going on until I get some testing done but I’ll be happy to have you all along with me for the ride! 💞
