Words You Don't Want to Hear

About a week ago, I got blood work done with my lady doctor. Just my regular blood work that is to make sure my PCOS is where it should be. Well, I got the phone call yesterday. Everything was good except for 2 things, but we had known about the 1 and were anticipating it. The other,I didn't expect to hear .Ovarian Failure.

Note to self, if you're a doctor providing bad news, please explain or some kind of details because I've been in tears since then. last night, I finally googled Ovarian Failure and I was freaking out. There is a 4-5% chance I could have a baby. Water Works. Also, you should never google anything, it's REALLY bad. So, now as the website explained to confirm, you'll take the same blood test again. So, I do that on Friday. And then I wait.

So, I'll wait. Luckily I have some amazing friends who are going to help me take my mind off of things. I've got so many fun activities going on the next weeks that I should be able to occupy myself. So stay tuned for a few great posts about supper club, the cash & carry sale, and the pink swap I'm doing on Kappa Prep!

Thank you so much to everyone I talked to last night and gave me some twitter lovin'. I know that I truly have an amazing group of strong women to help me through this. As Jeff said, we have options, let just rule everything out first. Spoken like a true engineer.

  1. I'm so sorry Jen but don't give up! You have to stay strong and believe. If it makes you feel better, you have higher chances than us to get prego. Like Jeff said, there's options. You know I've been there and done that so feel free to vent or ask anything. I heart ya!!!

  2. I could tell something was up last night but I decided to just let you be when I saw you online.

    Don't give up, you've been through a lot and you'll make it out on top again. Listen to Jeff this time and there are options. :)

  3. I really do believe that you can't just throw your hands up now. There are so many options and you're just starting out with the information you're receiving.

    As my father always said, "this too shall pass."

  4. Doctors are terrible at sharing news and I've had a phone call like that from mine before. Keep your head up and your mind open. It's way too early to give up. Sounds like you've got a great support system!
