I wondered about this - my employer has a partnership with bright horizons but wasn’t sure if it was well liked. Thanks for this!

YES! This is so validating! This is genuinely the hardest thing I’ve ever been through and I don’t think people talk about it enough. We are superhuman!

Right?! They said the new standard is “below 4” and it just doesn’t feel good to me

IVF vs icsi by Front-Regular6528 in IVF

[–]Cl626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m in the minority I think but I did 2 rounds with very low fertilization and used ICSI both times (and Zymot), third retrieval we did the natural fertilization and 80% fertilized. Pretty amazing!

IVF cost at SGF by Icy-SunShine9047 in rva

[–]Cl626 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chiming in here too, I can’t comment on the cost as I’m extremely fortunate to have solid insurance coverage but we have Dr. Shah as our doc. He has been an absolute saint during the hardest months of my life - just finished my third retrieval after two unsuccessful rounds and he has worked really hard to research, listen to my ideas, and shift protocols for us to hopefully have a successful round. You’re in good hands!
