RE findings

After reading all of your comments, (thank you for your imput) , I decided to call all the RE offices within a 20 mile radius of my house to which ones had weekend hours. I called 8 different offices and NONE of them have weekend hours!! One office was open for 2 hours on saturday but that was it. Can you believe that. I live in a large city and am floored that none of the offices have weekend hours. I asked a few of the offices why? I was told that with the medication that they have available, they can make your body ovulate (HCG shot) when they want. The reason this wasn't an option for me this cycle was that my RE was out of town.
I am not thrilled about my findings, but I don't have a choice and I understand that they can still be successful without weekend hours. So the bottom line is that I will not be switching RE's.

I am CD 27 , AF is scheduled to arrive monday or tuesday. DH and I were talking about how crazy it would be if I actually got pregnant this time without the help of an RE. We don't have much hope, but it's just something that crossed our minds.

Wow, that's pretty crazy about the RE's in your area. But I have to say you are lucky there are so many. I do not have ANY RE's in my area and I live in a decent sized city. The ob/gyn who did my surgery does IUI's but I would have to travel at least an hour if it ever comes down to IVF for us. Crazy, huh? I REALLY hope you are pg this cycle and don't have to worry about the RE.
