Soundtrack from a Mock Transfer

Welcome if you are here from ICLW week. We are currently gearing up for our IVF cycle. You can read our back story on how we got here by clicking on my crib notes.

Today was my mock transfer. That sounds a lot more exciting than it actually was. Basically, they were just trying to make sure the catheter would be able to get in without any problems. So it was kind of like an IUI, but without an potential.

Far more interesting was the back and forth between Dr. O and her new nurse. Apparently,  my ultrasound time was used to help train the nurse on how to use the ultrasound machine (which is fine by me. If Dr. O can get my pregnant, she can broadcast my vag cam shots in Times Square). However, here is a sampling of the *oh-so-encouraging* dialog going back-and-forth:

Whoa - check out those PCO ovaries!

She has an amazingly retroverted uterus. Look at where my wand is? See how it's almost straight up and down?

Oh yeah, this one also has a weird uterus. It's T-shaped.

That's [the machine is] saying it's a fibroid. Is that a fibroid? 
                 No - don't worry her. She has enough going on!

Where's her ovary? I can't find her right ovary. (a back-and-forth passing of the wand ensured here)

 That's where you would measure the endometrium? I would measure it there... Where'd it go? Now I can't find it.

How can you tell the follicles from the gas bubbles? How do you know which one is which?
 

So, yeah, maybe not so encouraging. I'm trying not to be disconcerted because I really do like my doctor and the new clinic. Instead, I've decided what I can take away from this is (a) I apparently clearly fall into the "multiple factors for infertility camp" and (b) at least they take the time to do training for their new staff.
