Decisions, Decisions

So I have gone to all my appointments. I met with three different OB practices because my GYN practice isn't currently providing OB care. I met with the TriHealth Nurse Midwives. I really liked them a lot. They were very receptive to the things I am hoping to experience during pregnancy and childbirth. The second group I met with was Crescent Women's Group. I will have to be honest here and say that it wasn't really a good fit for me. I think that other people may really love the practice and if that is what works for them then that is great. I also met Dr. Bowen, whom I loved. He was just awesome. He was also very receptive to the things I am hoping to experience during pregnancy and childbirth. He was also very informative and up front about a lot of things, which I like.

Now I have to make the decision between going to the midwives or going to see Dr. Bowen. Either way I know I am going to get great care. I just am having a hard time choosing. I'm sure when the time comes I will have thought this decision through enough and come to a decision I am comfortable with. If anyone has any advice or suggestions let me know.

As for the 2ww and the fun that I've had waiting. I had really sore boobs for like the first week and a half after ovulation. The soreness has either subsided or I'm just getting used to it. I have been super sensitive to smells the last week. I can't stand any kind of pepper's or onion smell. I seriously get nauseated when I smell them. It is awful and hilarious all at the same time! I have also been extremely exhausted! I can barely keep my eyes open right now and I slept a lot today! I also have been peeing a lot more than is normal for me.

I can't wait for next week to be here! If I do get a BFP we are going to tell our family first and then I will post it here for everyone to see. I don't think we are going to wait long to tell people because I want to be able to feel what I feel without trying to hide it and worry about miscarrying.

I'll post soon! Keep your fingers crossed for us, please!
