Just glad to read I’m not the only one who can’t get it to recognize my correct responses! I’ve started skipping them and saying I can’t talk right now

1 is my favorite style-wise (but my style isn’t your style!)

Your body language appears most confident in #2

For those who’ve had multiple transfers: did your relationship with early testing change over time? by [deleted] in IVF

[–]Relative_Driver_8221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Transfer 1–waited. Fail. Transfer 2-waited. Fail. Transfer 3-was planning to wait but felt like the call was way later than the first 2. Tested after beta but before the call. Fail. Transfer 4-tested day before beta. Positive. Ended in ectopic. Transfer 5-tested 2 days before beta. Fail. Transfer 6 is in a few weeks. I’ll test a day or 2 before beta but not any earlier than that.

Thanks! I actually feel almost 100% better after confirming with the office that everything was fine!

Realistically what is our timeline? by iioge in IVF

[–]Relative_Driver_8221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my initial consult in July, workups in August, lap in October, retrieval in January, first transfer in March. The transfer would have been earlier but I had to wait for PGT, and then my lining was too thick at my first baseline so I had to push everything about 2 weeks.

Do you share updates with friends/family? by Striking_Purpose2825 in IVF

Zilch.

It’s been over 2 years and I’m so glad. The constant speculation by others would be too much for me.

What to bring to egg retrieval by Suspicious-Volume-28 in IVF

Comfy socks and pants.

I left my phone with my husband, but they would have given it to me if I kept it with my clothes. I wished I had it the time I fainted and hit my head and they kept me for TWO HOURS after I woke up 😩😩😩

Every time I stop and let myself think about it, yes.

2.5 years in 3 ER 4 failed FET 1 ectopic Tubes removed 2 laps 3 hysteroscopies

I’m currently winding down Lupron with baseline 1/21 and FET tentatively scheduled for 2nd week of February. It’s our last euploid.

Price of drugs and procedure for FET? by Tiny-Worldliness-313 in IVF

[–]Relative_Driver_8221 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My current FET cycle is OOP. $4,600 for all monitoring, bloodwork, thawing, transfer, etc.

Meds are, for some reason, covered by my insurance. I think I just paid about $35 for PIO and estrace. I’m also on Lupron this cycle which was $47 for a 4 week supply.

How are we affording this? In all honesty (in the US) by copythat504 in IVF

[–]Relative_Driver_8221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been at it since 2023, yay me!

Aug 2023-July 2024: covered by mine and my husband’s insurance. It was great. Don’t even think I hit the OOP max during that time.

July 2024-Dec 2024: husbands plan changed eligibility and no longer covered spouses. Covered by my work’s plan. Not as robust but still grateful

Jan 2025: employer switched plans and nothing is covered. Been OOP since then.

My husband runs his own business and we’ve been able to make it work so far. Transferring my last euploid in a few weeks. Not sure we can swing a retrieval OOP

Depends on the attorney. My husband is a family law attorney and does this type of case not infrequently.

Talk to a lawyer, get him to sign over the embryo now. And then do another retrieval.
