inconclusively frustrating...

so it seems (love's test results didn't get to the doctor yet.) that it is 'unexplained infertility'. Depending on the results of his test, we are recommended to further testing with a specialist. So a lot of "who knows". The frustrating thing is that I'm sure the stress from work is the problem in this situation but I'm in a catch 22...I need to leave work to be able to conceive but I need the health insurance my job offers to have a baby. So I'm stuck.

And I feel like crap...I've had my period all weekend but now I'm very woozy and not walking straight (well less than normal) I'm gonna park it on the couch for the rest of the afternoon. The cats have the right idea.

my bro-in-law and sis-in-law had the same diagnosis BUT did conceive last year (without any fertility treatments, just doin it the old fashioned way, still don't know why it wasn't workin in the first place...b-i-l kept saying his sperm were just swimming the wrong direction...)

my niece was born in early january. so try not to get too frustrated... (as if you can help getting frustrated, i know how my s-i-l felt...it was rly hard...)

gotta relax like big grey kitty (boy, cats sure have the corner on the taking it easy thing, don't they?)

(((hugs)))

ahh i have friends who are currently dealing w/treatments & i wish i had the right words of encouragement (like the guy in my office who's wife just conceived after a long time of tryin)... it's hard to say the right thing when you dont know what the right thing to say is.... and you already know all the "dont get discouraged" it sucks! and i'm sorry....

fyi: these are some things I've heard good things about... (not that you havent already researched butcha neva know)
