November Infertility "ONE" Thread - Page 2

Just 3 more nights of 150iu's of menopur (counting tonight) then I'll have my next ultrasound and blood work done Monday morning!  I am so ready to be able to trigger and get to the fun part of this ordeal!!! LOL  I am SOOOOOO grateful for my insurance though.  The doctor ordered me 7 more boxes of menopur the other day and the company i ordered it from in Birmingham, AL was able to put the scrip under the original one and i didn't have to pay another $60 copay for the meds, only had to pay for more needles and syringes. So to date i've only had to pay 1 $35 co pay to the doctor's office and $212 total for meds which had i not had insurance would of cost me $10,000!!! Yup, so surprised that these things are covered but feel very blessed that they are!!!  Only bad thing is IF we have to go to IUIs or anything else i won't be covered for that stuff and would have to pull that money out of my pocket.  So here's to hoping that this cycle works!!!

14dpo and another BFN. So, I'm dropping the progesterone, and planning to try the Clomid again this coming cycle.

Think Fertile Thoughts!

Sorry to hear Stevi. 

CD21 here, nothing to report. 

[deborahbgkelly]

Sorry Stevi :-(. AFM- All systems go! I started birth control pills tonight so that means I'm in the suppression part of my cycle. Exciting! Retrieval should be around the 10th of December I believe.

[Stevi]

deorahbgkelly...   How exciting!

[toothfairy2be]

Great news Deborah.

Stevi- hopefully another clomid cycle will do the trick!

Brichole- did you trigger yet? Hope you have quick success this time.

Plane - are yo doing anythng this cycle?

AFM- 8dpo.

[planegreen]

Deborah - yay!!!!  Good luck to you! 

Toothfairy - No, I am not.  DH went hunting during the best week of the month so we had to take this one off.

[deborahbgkelly]

Thanks everyone!

[lilacvioletiris]

I am so excited - half way to our funding goal for IVF procedure. There is hope at the end of the tunnel.

[planegreen]

lilac - That is fantastic!  I wish you speed in getting the rest of the way! 

AFM - Last night I was craving brownies so I would say no free baby this month.  Brownies usually equals period coming the following week...  Anyone else have crazy things like that? 

[toothfairy2be]

planegreen- I tend to just crave sugar in general. Lately it has been Oreos. In the last month I think we have eaten at least a package a week, sometimes two (and by me I mean I eat a package and a half and hubby eats a few...). It has always meant no free baby for me too... curious to see when baby does stick if I feel different or if the cravings are just weird always! Enjoy your brownies!

lilac- wonderful news! Stinks that it wasnt as much as you were thinking but money is money. DH is still taking the fertilaid right? It could still happen and then think of all the money you will have saved up!

[skeemama]

Please add me back in TTC.

Trying 5 years....cautiously optimistic....

Baby dust ladies, BABY DUST!!!

[deborahbgkelly]

So, could my blurb please be updated: Retrieval estimated for 12/9 with transfer estimated for 12/14. Starting injections for suppression this coming Thursday and stims the following Tuesday :-).

skeemama- TTC # 2 or 3? Welcome back!

[SilaMarila]

I know I disappeared this whole month, but my lap is tomorrow so keep me in your thoughts and I'll try to update while I'm "resting" after the procedure :)

[SKJ2011]

Good luck tomorrow Sila!

[WildDoula]

Hi ladies, wondering if I can join you all. We've been NTNP with some bouts of trying for almost 3 years now. One loss in July of this year. We're going to be working towards starting testing so we can figure out why we can't get/stay pregnant, but we don't have insurance so it's going to be little by little. Basically, TTC #1 since 2010. One loss, July 2012. Hoping for a 2013 Rainbow. 

I'm on CD32 right now, trying to figure out my body's pattern/lack thereof since our loss so I can get back into charting.

Sila, I remember you from back when we were first deciding on when to start TTC! Unfortunate that we're still in the same boats. Good luck with your lap.

TTC & carry to full term #3.

Thanks!  

[SilaMarila]

WildDoula - I remember you too. Bummer we are still here. Big hugs to you. It really really sucks to be dealing with not only taking forever to get pregnant, but when you finally do it ends way too early. So sorry for your loss.

Hi all,

This is copy/paste from the IVF thread.

Sorry I've been MIA for a couple  of days. I also apologize for the AAM post. The BC pills caused an endo flare up (which is not promising for injections, though I'll have Letrozole to counteract the estrogen levels) and I had a horrible allergic reaction at work yesterday. I'm not sure if it was from the red coating on the tylenol or the fact that I discovered the notebook I had been using had soy-based ink in it (I'm super allergic to soy). I suspect it was a combination. We have our IVF consults on Monday and I'll have my Doppler while I'm there. I start injections on Tuesday. On another note, I might have gotten a pretty big position on one of the sites where I write. They are asking me to be a quality control assistant for Spanish language content. I didn't see it until this morning, so hopefully it's not too late. I'm really excited at the prospect.
