I am starting to wonder if I am doing the right thing.
I recently changed docs. I'm not too wild about this dude, either. After the exam, I mentioned we were TTC.
He looked at me, paused for 10 seconds, kind of made a face and then finally said, "Too late." He paused. "If you are early 40s, you have a chance. After that, you can't do it without chemical enhancement.
"When was your birthday?" I told him. "Oh. You're almost 45 and a half."
Uh...not for several more months.
Another gripe: I am not happy with a great many of conception-oriented websites. I feel like bleep and that I am pretty much left out of the picture in them; seems like the oldest woman they have that's TTC is maybe 35 max, let alone anyone at all over 40.
This doc is sending us off to an RE. Gee; I wonder if this practitioner will also think we are wasting our time.
