SIL Update

I got some more information about SIL's uterus. Thank goodness because there were a couple hours there where all I could think about was her uterus and that was just wrong. MIL still keeps referring to it as a BU, but there are a lot of doctors who for whatever reason refer to almost any uterine anomaly as a BU. SIL does have a septum though and the surgery she mentioned is to have it removed. I'm kind of worried because MIL and SIL don't really seem very proactive about this. They need to educate themselves, dammit. I get that talking to MIL about uteruses is hard. So glad we were talking about them via email because MIL is just so conservative. I swear their family policy is just not to talk about anything that might matter.

I was debating on whether to point them toward the MullerianAnomalies group. I haven't posted anything on there myself, but the time may come when we start TTC that I might have questions. I don't want MIL and SIL to read it and know what we are up to. (You know, because I am a part of their family now and I need to follow the family policy of not letting them in on anything that matters.) Mostly though, I wasn't sure how to tell them they need to get themselves educated. Particularly SIL who will be having the surgery. So, I emailed MIL tonight and told her they both should check out the group to get some valid information. I probably came off sounding really preachy but whatever. I would just hate for SIL to face infertility and miscarriages and such later on because she didn't do the research now.

I'm going to give it a few days and then maybe I will contact SIL directly. She and I don't really talk. No reason really other than the age difference and the two of us just being in different aspects of our lives. I don't even know if she knows that MIL told me about her uterus so it is kind of an odd first deep conversation to have with her.

As for an update on me, AF did show up two days late. And now I am pissed off because other than some really mild cramps right before arrival, I have been fine. None of that curled up thinking I am going to die stuff that inspired me to go off and get sliced up. Why am I having this surgery again?
