The beginning...

On August 22, 2008, I met the love of my life. To make a long story short, we met through mutual friends, fell in love, and were engaged December of 2010. Our wedding is set for August 18, 2012. Over the last year or so, we have both realized how badly we want a child. We have never tried to prevent getting pregnant, it just never happened for us. There was never one of those "oops" or "uh-oh" moments. I have always known that getting pregnant wouldn't be easy for me. I have RH- blood and endometriosis. I have been pregnant before, but none of them were successful. So, we decided it was time for me to go to an Infertility Specialist and try to figure out what was wrong and how to correct the problem. After answereing what felt like a million questions about my health and history, my doc ordered a HSG test. This test would allow the doctor to shoot a blue dye into my fallopian tubes to check for blockages. So, I went in for the test. I laid down on the exam table looking up at the screen which showed an image of my uterus and tubes. As the doctor started pushing in the dye, I began to cramp extremely bad. The more dye he injected, the more it hurt. I layed there watching the monitor and watched the blue dye stop right inside each of my tubes. I layed there, silently praying for the dye to push its way through while tears ran down both of my cheeks.I felt it...I knew the result before the doctor could even tell me. I knew my tubes were blocked. Step one down. On to step 2...surgery.
