light hearted ttc

[hello_kitty]

Ashley since you're so far along in your pregnancy you need to be seen. Money is important but not as important as you and baby. You can always sort it out after you're appointment.

Ugh! I just got the breakdown of the bill (it was addressed to me) so I opened it and sure enough they're charging us 900 just for bloodwork!! I don't get it!! how can routine bloodwork be so HIGH!? its like pretty much everything on the breakdown is like 90-100 per thing that they did my DH is gonna be pissed about it. And to not even WARN us about the cost...

starting to feel more pregnant much harder to just pick stuff up off the floor i have to bend my knees now

bump is growing by the day i swear every day i get up im a bit bigger

 

[magicwhisper]

that is so stupid, that is stupidly expensive

 

[mzswizz]

ashley-that is horrible. i wonder why its higher than last time. If anything, i would expect it to be cheaper especially since its your 2nd pregnancy. Are you using the same place that you went to for your last pregnancy?

magic-just wait until you cant see your feet

 

[AC1987]

I took a pic of the bill because its kinda hard to believe right?

But me and my DH looked over it, and compared it to the first bill we recieved the first time when I was pregnant with Cassidy.
And noticed a couple things, first our bill from last time was $350. Second, they retested for some unnecessary things! My blood type and RH factor have not changed! Third, they failed to give us our 35% self pay discount which they promise to all self pay people.
So my DH is going to call them up today and HOPEFULLY we can sort this out, I have yet to tell him that I haven't cancelled my appt...

 

[magicwhisper]

wow that is shocking

 

[mzswizz]

Wow that is crazy. Hopefully everything will be sorted out and fixed.

Today im 8dpo/dpiui. I told dh yesterday that i feel like this cycle will be a bfn because im going through the same wxact symptoms i was going through the other times where i thought i was pregnant. So im feeling like im out. Im pretty sure the 10dpo/dpiui test will either be completely negative or have a faint line. If i test again after and it doesnt get darker, then i know it was the trigger but of it does get darker, then its a bfp. And if its negative then onto the ttc break i go. So we shall see. Even though im hoping for the best. I just feel that im out.

 

[magicwhisper]

Your not out until af hits. I wasnt expecting my bfp the month i gotmine. I was away the week i thought i ovulated

 

[AC1987]

aww you're not out yet Patrice! and really for me the feeling before getting my period and before I found out I had a bfp was the same!

 

[mzswizz]

thanks ladies. I guess we shall see what happens. And now i got that stupid bulge back as if its another hernia but on the right side now. Hoping its not another hernia. And they pushed the appt to have a consultation with the surgeon that did my hernia surgery to the 11th of feb. So if i am pregnant, they really wont be able to do the surgery until after birth. But at the same time im hoping there is no need for another surgery.

 

[AC1987]

YAAYYY!! it got sorted out almost, my DH went down to the hospital in his lunch hour to talk to a person about it, and found out that they didn't apply a self pay discount. So THATS why it was crazy high! so they're gonna apply that and then he might want to come with me to the next appt to talk to someone about how yes we are self pay.
Seriously you'd think at the beginning of the appt when they ask "Now do you have maternity insurance?" they'd write something down

But ugh its such a huge relief... so i'm making CUPCAKES!


Patrice.. I hope you dont have another hernia!

 

[mzswizz]
