Femara Friends!

My insurance covers the majority of my investigative procedures (like the HSG), but we're on the hook for IUI and IVF. Fortunately, we do get a discount rate on the ART procedures. My IUI, including sperm washing, was only around $250 with the discount. How does that compare to others in the US?

Where are you? My dr said he knew a guy in Tucson that did IVF for 7000. I see here that with just IUI and no monitoring is $300. Clomid & Intrauterine Insemination (includes ultrasounds, IUI, sperm wash,and one pregnancy test) $925. Not too bad, here Ive seen IUI go as high as 10,000. Im not sure if there would be some kind of discount because of all the work Ive already had done. Im not at this point yet.

That is certainly not the $25,000 price tag I was originally seeing when I was donig my research! Hubs and I saw that and just said "guess IVF isnt for us!"

Are you guys military?

 

[LolaM]

Hi there all!

I've been having the craziest dreams for the past couple of days! I mentioned them to DH and he said, "isn't that a symptom of pregnancy"? I said yeah, but I don't want to get my hopes up too high.lol

How is everyone doing in their cycles?

Charisse! That's exciting! When are you going to test?

Probably the earliest I will test would be January 2nd. I managed to get my hands on an hpt today and the trigger should be completely out of my system by tomorrow, (got a ghost line) and anything that comes back up should be from pregnancy!

YAY! I always have wacky dreams, so that one wouldnt hold up for me!

 

[MrsCompass]

Yay Charisse!!!

Speaking of weird dreams ... when we started Femara Friends ... I had a dream you all came over my house to get to know each other in person. Hahahaha ...

 

[Cridge]

MrsCompass - I'm hoping I ovulate in 9 days! If I ovulate on meds, it's typically later (like CD18 or later), but last cycle I ovulated on CD14!! So I'm hoping for that again. We'll see. I have an u/s next week to see where I'm at. It'll be nice to have a 2ww buddy - the 2ww sucks!!

My ticker keeps disappearing and I can not get rid of this headache.

 

[MKHewson]

Hey Ladies, I hope you are enjoying your holidays, I got my fermara all done for this cycle, looking forward to going home on Sat. And have some much needed time alone with the hubby....hehehe some baby making needed lmao. I hope you all have a great remainder to your week. I look forward to keeping up with everyone once I return.

Maybe the headache is a good sign! With my last 2 pg's I had migraines like crazy, before I even got my BFP...sadly both ended but still it was a strong symptom!

Sorry for your loss. I used to get migraines. I stopped taking my BC and i havent had one since, that was a year ago. I woke up with a small annoying headache 3 days ago.

 

[Chiles]

So I got my injectable meds today, missed the fed ex man yday. Any who I received a 900 iu gonal f pen, and 10000 ml hcg. I am so blessed to have insurance because that is almost $900 worth of medicine. When AF shows her face I have to make an appointment with RE, and go from there. Still dont know if I am doing femara again

 

[siblingwishes]

Tmi warning!!!!

The Crinone is clumping and falling out a little bit...has this happened to any of you, and did you "clean it out" ?

 

[siblingwishes]

Yay Charisse!!!

Speaking of weird dreams ... when we started Femara Friends ... I had a dream you all came over my house to get to know each other in person. Hahahaha ...

Well that would have been fun Trina!!

 

[MrsCompass]

@Chiles: That is great news!!! C'mon AF ... giddy up!!!

@Siblingwishes: Sorry, I have never taken crinone before. I use the suppositories and I used them before bed, so nothing really leaks out.
LOL@ my dream .. it would be fun!!!

@Lola: Are you feeling better?

Who's testing first out of the TWW'ers? I can't remember who it was, Charisse, I think ... someone said they're testing on January 2nd? So exciting!!! That's only a few days away. I'm so excited to see one of us get a BFP on here!!!

 

[Chiles]

I never used the crinone eihter, sorry.


I cant wait until someone here gets there BFP!!! so we can bug them on symptoms and etc, lol. Baby dust to all!!! Bring on the BFP's!!!!
