Just so no one thinks I'm shirking my responsibilities, let it be known that we tried to call Rabbi V last night, he didn't answer, we left a detailed message on his machine, and we have yet to hear back from him.

Just another Orthodox Jewish woman entering the world of infertility blogs. The name of the game is PCOS, but I've been told the rules may change at any time.
Now - pregnant with twins.
I blog anonymously for a reason. You may think you know who I am, and you may very well be correct. However, I don't want to know about it. This blog is my "safe space" and I want to speak my mind here without accountability to friends and relatives. If that means that I end up insulting you on these pages, I'm sorry. Take comfort in the idea that you may be wrong about my identity after all. And, no, obviously "Ezra" is not my husband's real name.
Confident about my identity? Then let me make it clear: If you know me in person, if you would recognize me walking down the street, if you could name either of my children or either of my parents - if any of those apply to you - please stop reading.
Our journey is only one of many that Jewish couples may face in the course of infertility treatments. Our decisions may not be appropriate for your situation, and under no circumstances should you assume that our answers apply to your own questions. If halacha (Jewish law) is a concern for you on this journey, please consult a competent rabbi or yoetzet of your own choosing.
That's so annoying!!! It's not like you need his advice before you can get the show on the road or anything. Aargh.
I hope he responds real soon.
Well, we can (and will, if necessary) have our first RE appointment without having spoken to Rabbi V first, but it will slow things down overall (for example, I could definitely go ahead with another round of blood tests, and I could probably schedule an HSG, but we wouldn't get a semen analysis without the rabbi's go-ahead, and I would be very wary of taking any meds without Ezra having had a S/A first.
Speak up!
