Well, I had my appt with my GYN today, and my DH came along with me. I came in the office with a list of questions, but most got answered with normal conversation. He stated that I can stay on my BC pills until we are ready to try, and I don't need to be off of them 3 months prior. He also said that he wouldn't even try to test me for PCOS until we had been trying to conceive for 6-12 months. He said that there are lots of people who have PCOS and have no problem getting pregnant. He also recommended me losing some weight, and stating that he would only like me to gain 10 lbs during pregnancy, if possible. Then he dropped the bomb on me, he stopped delivering babies last August when he went in for cancer treatments for himself. He said that he would keep me on until I hopefully got pregnant, and he would do my preliminary sonogram and bloodwork, and then he would send me to one of his associates. He also stated that I don't really need a high risk OB, but I could see one if I would like.
I'm not exactly sure how I feel about this. I mean, I was there in January before my back surgery for my pap smear, and I know I told him that we were hoping to TTC this fall. He never said anything then about not delivering babies. If I had known that, I think I may have just went to see another OB/GYN for all of these questions and start having a relationship with them. I just feel like I trusted him, and figured he would be there for me in the next coming months, and I now will have to start with a new one in the middle of my "hopeful" pregnancy. If I don't get pregnant, I will continue with my current GYN with my normal pap next January, and then we will see from there. Maybe I'm just in a bad mood because I have to go back to work tomorrow after not working since January 23rd.
