Three posts in a row. How embarrassing!
I just posted the updates and am wondering if people with dates want to be left in the waiting for AF coloum. If you want out, let me know. Im staying in, bc Im still waiting
Today I have our financial consult. I know what they are going to say-2000-3000 dollars. This is just a formality. Pennies when compared with the almost 20 grand we dropped last year (w testing all out of pocket) for our initial IVF. But a chunk of change, ya know? Whoever said (was is you leolady?) that the medical care system is the USA is shocking, youre totally right. I feel blessed and grateful that we have the means to do this at all.
just out of curiosity, how much have your IVF's and current FET's cost? LOVE to know. ..
Sarah-yay! youre in July! even on the 29th, thats so much better than planning for August somehow.
KCFCLF-How comforting that the second opinion matched. Its great to know that youre getting the best possible treatment.
KCF and JustOne4Me- so, PCOS huh? just out of curiosity, what are the symptoms of that. I have two sisters with it, and am not retesting this time. Maybe I should be. what have your Dr.s noticed that shows PCOS in the mix?
Sunny_skies-wow. We're more similar than you even guessed. I'm 29 in the fall too, and we also are hoping for a big family. (I'm from a huge one). ..and, additionally, my little girl is seven and a half months old. And, we've been through all the anxiety about planning and timing etc. And I somtimes still wonder about the rightness of the date, and about how many embies to put in. we're doing two, for sure, with hopes of at least getting one. Twins would also be great, for sure, but wow. That would be four babies three and under for at least a month until DS turns four in april next year. Could I do it? Sure. It would be crazy, but it would be a blessing and a joy. Esp since we want more kids, and have lots of fam. around to help. I too feel the pressure to get moving. I have four sisters and three of them have had significant IF problems, repeat IVFs, failed ones, children, and some adoptions. They all have at least four kids now, but not without a huge fight with fate for each baby. The one sis who hasnt had probs is to young to know she may too.
Lets all send hope and telepathic
babydust Jewellc's way.
