A Sono-Hyster-WHAT-ogram?


 

Today I had the Sonohysterogram. The following are the details of that and perhaps some should turn away now! Basically they want to inspect the uterus to ensure that there is no abnormality that may cause issues with getting pregnant like cysts, tears etc. In order to get a good look at the uterine walls they need to inflate the uterus using a small amount of saline solution. This was not fun. Let me repeat, this was NOT FUN! Lol it was awkward and crampy and common ladies, we all know any inspection of the lady parts is not pleasant. Though, it was pretty trippy to watch on the monitor as they inflated it and the best part was when the doctor said in his thick Russian accent “What a beautiful uterus!” I was not sure whether to say thank you or ask him out for a second date. I will take his compliment as I passed the final baby test! My body is perfect in every way to host a surro baby. Next step is the legal contracts. A friend of mine who is also in the beginning steps of being a surrogate is going through a different agency and they actually have her do all the lab work prior to selecting a Intended Parents. I am thinking this would be the more efficient route to take because every lab, every ultrasound, every test I think to myself “what if I fail, what if something is wrong” and not only will I be letting myself down but I will be breaking my IP’s hearts who will have to go on the daunting mission of finding another surrogate (who, lets face it, will never be as awesome as I am with this here perfect uterus!) Thankfully, I am a baby factory and I have passed everything.  Well that is all the news I have for now! Hopefully there will be another update soon!
