Thanks for the words of encouragement! My LH (like husband) or BF (boyfriend) knows its me and that's why he has refused the semen analysis. We have had many arguments over this. So I've just dropped it. Its hard enough dealing with the fertility issues and my insensitive doctor.
I finally made the decision to switch RE. He just made me feel bad everytime I saw him or spoke to his someone in his office. I just moved to Atlanta from the VA/DC/MD area and felt that my race played a part in him treating me that way. To me, he was more focused on making me aware of the cost of fertility treatments,the cost of raising a baby alone if my LH bails,the consequences of not having a Seman analysis. All things I'm fully aware of. I know part of it was him doing his job. But he seemed to stress the financial stuff. I finally had to sternly remind him that I am also a healthcare professional, have done my research and planning, and fully capable of financially taking care of a child if needed to. Black women have been doing it for years w/o federal assistance. I left out of there feeling like Octomom! |
