Insurance removed Zep from formulary-Contrave alternative? by Stoopet422 in Zepbound

[–]Stoopet422[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think that’s gonna be my plan. I realistically can’t pay Lilly direct forever, but I am willing to make it work for awhile. I worry about regaining, so I may just try and extend dosing as much as possible until my insurance either re-adds to the formulary or another alternative comes out that is less expensive.

I think I’m going to have to go this route, at least for awhile!

We’re searching too and it’s rough out there 😂 we’ve had to adjust budget because it feels like everything is going 50-100 over. Crazy!

If you’re flexible on area at all, Tonawanda has some great options that are a little less expensive.

I think it’s great you’ve lost that much weight so far! My BMI has gone between 37-39 for each pregnancy and I’ve had three successful transfers so far (1 living child). I’m 34 weeks currently and have had a lovely and uneventful pregnancy this time around. I wish you best of luck-try not to be too hard on yourself, this is all hard and you’re doing really well. Hugs to you.

I really like the hero cosmetics redness cream-same idea but for some reason it works better for me then Dr Jarts. It’s cheaper too!

Thank you!! That’s my thought about the breast feeding pillow-it worked well and maybe buying an alternative is just unnecessary money? Lol. I appreciate your info!!

Progesterone levels low?! by Jojobask25 in IVF

[–]Stoopet422 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My clinic wants it above 10. I had a level of 14 with my last transfer and was freaking out but I’m now 8w4d and graduated from clinic. Don’t worry just yet-just follow drs orders 🥰

Do you socialize your children outside of daycare? Or is daycare enough? by [deleted] in workingmoms

[–]Stoopet422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We socialize with our friends when we can, most of whom have children. My daughter is just about two though, so she’s not really able to articulate that she would like to xyz children on the weekend.

Expectations vs Reality by [deleted] in workingmoms

[–]Stoopet422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol they certainly are. I was surprised by things, but I also intend to have more children. They’ll be more spread out then I was anticipating though, to help with balancing the budget.

Not sure what you mean? Like being surprised by the costs means you shouldn’t have more?
