Today was my first appointment with the fertility doctor. I think it went well. I wasn't sure if I'd have an exam since AF is still here, but I'm on CD 4 and I'm only spotting so they decided to do an exam... which was done by a super cute intern 
My doctor is a woman and she's pretty nice. She was happy I had brought my charts and said it's very clear that I do ovulate. She ordered some basic tests (an ultrasound and something else I can't remember but it's supposed to be a bit painful) as well as blood work. Chris will have a sperm analysis and also some blood tests.
For my ultrasound and that other test, I have to go at specific dates during my cycle (I'm supposed to call on CD 1 to schedule everything). But since we're going to Germany next month, we may have to wait until April to do them, and then wait a month or so to get the results so I don't expect I'll have any answers until May. I'm ok with that. We'll keep on trying as best as we can until then.

Great that your doctor is nice - it makes it so much easier when you are dealing with someone like that. May isn't too far away - at least you are now in the process of getting some answers.

Thanks girls  I'm also hoping for a surprise bfp but I have trouble believing it could happen after so long. But who knows!
Re GERMANY!!! I will make a post about it later (I'm tired now - Ich bin sehr müde  )
We're going to Berlin for a week. One of our friend is going there for work and he'll be staying in an appartment with an extra room so we won't have to pay for a hotel. And then we'll be going to COPENHAGEN! (I need to learn how to spell it before I go!). I'm even more excited about that because I've been to Germany before but it'll be my first time in Denmark.
