I'm "interesting"

Visited the reproductive endocrinologist today (fancy speak for infertility specialist) and he once again pronounced me "interesting". I'm not sure I want a specialist to think I'm interesting. But at least I think he can help me. He certainly did a great job last time - our little boy is almost 1 year old now. We are going to take him with us on our next visit on October 3rd so that he can meet the doctor who made him possible. Anyway, the net outcome of the visit is that I get to have more labs done and then we'll figure out a course of action. Wooo hooo! Pincushion time again! We're going to try & figure out how to get the ol' body functioning right again post-childbirth and all, and he will also try to help us figure out how to breastfeed more successfully this time around, if it's possible. He did think it was strange that although my problem before was elevated prolactin levels that I had problems with adequate milk supply - he said he's only heard of one other patient that had that problem coupled with elevated prolactin. He wasn't sure what was going on there, but promised to help us figure it all out. That's all we can ask.

Are you sayin' there is another baby in your near future??

Yup, I guess we're officially "trying", which for us could take a while, given the medical ramifications.
