Today I got to see a very unattractive fertility dude. Very. Unattractive. I tried to think of an uglier person, but came up blank. Plus, he has no social skills at all. None. The social skill basket is empty. But, he is supposed to be good at what he does, so I'll put up with his random comments about his personal hell being strapped to a chair and forced to watch Tampa Bay's head coach John Gruden at press conferences. No clue what that had to do with artificial insemination, other than the fact that B looks like a bald John Gruden.

Moving on. We'll get started on tests over the next few weeks. The first test for me is a hysterosalpingogram -- try saying that five times fast. It is an x-ray of the fallopian tubes and uterus after they have been injected with dye. It shows if the tubes are open and the shape of the uterus.

If they find out the tubes are open and the uterus' shape looks good, they'll try artificial insemination. If they see things are looking blocked, they'll do in vitro.

I'll let you know more when I do. Hope you all are having a good day!
