So the appointment was set up to have the test to see if I had a block in my tubes. I couldn't eat anything from 10:00 p.m. on until after the tests. We drove to the University of Utah Hospital and I changed my clothes into the fancy, hospital gown, and I was escorted into the waiting room. I sat there FOREVER!!! I was so nervous because Kendall would not be able to go into the room with me. My stomach was starting to growl, and worst of all the smell of hospitals makes me sick, I mean sick as in passing out, so being hungry, tired, scared, and the smell things were turning out to be bad.
My appointment was set for 9:00 a.m. At 11:00 a.m. the nurse came into the waiting room and said that the doctor was no where to be found, and she would page him again. Finally at 12:30 p.m. The doctor arrived. I followed the nurse back into the exam room where they got me ready for the procedure and you will never guess what happened!! The power went off!! Are you kidding me? This is not a good sign!!!!! So I once again was escorted out to the waiting room to be with Kendall. Can anything else possibly go wrong?!?!?!
The power finally came back on about an hour later and I was taken back into the exam room. I climbed up on the table once again and the nurses prepared me for the procedure. When they check to see if you have a block in your tubes they use what they call a balloon and insert it in to the tube and flush them out. The watch the whole thing on a monitor. As the doctor was ready to flush the first tube, the balloons popped!! Now this is not at all a comfortable thing to have done, and since the balloon popped they had to do it again. After both of the tubes had been flushed I returned to the dressing room to put my regular clothes on. The doctor came out shortly and took us to a back room. He explained that everything looked good in the tubes and that there was no blockages. He said that in some cases after they flush the tubes you are able to get pregnant, so we were to go home, continue with the ovulation tests and come back next month.

You Are Not Alone
If you are or have struggled with infertility or know someone who has, please be a follower on my blog and share my story. Somedays we may feel like we are all alone struggling by ourselves but I want you to know that you are not alone. We may not know what Heavenly Father has in store for us but I promise you he has something special in mind for each one of us. For me and my husband it is our special adopted children, who we would have never had if it wasnt for our infertility.
