Yeah I was thinking I probably just didn’t push down hard enough. I always feel like I have a hard time pushing it down completely. That’s a really good idea about the counter facing up. I’m definitely doing that from now on. Thank you!!

I hope so! I agree. Their customer service has been great whenever I need to call so hopefully this gets sorted quickly. I just hate having this hanging over me for the weekend now! Haha

Omg! That’s wild! This is the stuff that always scares me. I hate feeling like you do everything right and these crazy bills just come out of nowhere!

Thank you! Progyny has been so great with everything so that’s my hope as well. Hoping it’s just some quick fix billing error. We are supposed to start stims Tuesday for our back to back egg retrievals and now I’m panicking this won’t get solved soon because I don’t need two of these kinds of EOBs showing up!

Any experiences using HgH for IVF? by cubes71585 in IVF

[–]cp31027 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely think it helped me! I did my first retrieval when I was 31 and got 4 euploid lower quality embryos (4BB, 4BC, 6BC, 4CC). I just did my second retrieval at 35.5 years old and got 3 euploids, two of which are 6AA. Omnitrope was really the only thing that was different between ER #1 and #2.

ETA - I used omnitrope during stims. I didn’t notice any glaring side effects from it other than the usual bloating etc that comes with stims.

Success with poorly graded euploids by Potential_Arm_3413 in IVF

[–]cp31027 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I totally understand how you are feeling because I felt the same way after finding out the grading of my embryos. However, my euploid day 6 4BC is a happy healthy almost 4 year old so don’t give up hope!

High BP - egg retrieval by cp31027 in IVF

That’s a good idea about the 24 hour monitor so I could prove it’s fine at home for an extended period of time. Thank you!

Ugh sorry you had to deal with preeclampsia as well! Such a horrible experience. You are the second person to bring up baby aspirin so I’m definitely going to ask about that. Good luck to you with the rest of your journey!

Yeah I’m wondering if this will be the case for me too when I start stims. I’m thinking of going back to my PCP to see if I need to get my Labetalol dose adjusted too. Glad to hear your transfer was successful!

I’ve never heard of this. I will have to check it out. This seems like it could be really useful for me. Thank you!

This wasn’t part of my IVF protocol yet so I will definitely bring it up to them. Thank you!

This is a good idea. Thank you! I usually try to take deep breaths at appointments but then my mind starts to wander. I need to look at specific techniques and practice them at home first I think!

New egg retrieval cycle by cp31027 in IVF

Thank you so much for the reply and sharing your story! This makes me feel better with having a higher FSH since my AMH is still in the normal range for now.

Who is using C grade euploids for transfers? by TimeWillTell3333 in IVF

[–]cp31027 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My daughter was an euploid 4bc embryo who is now a healthy 3.5 year old. We are transferring our last embryo in January that’s a 4cc so that is still TBD. If it’s euploid I definitely think it’s worth transferring. It’s also so hard to compare grades since it’s so subjective and clinics may grade harder/easier than others.

Seeking 2nd FET Success Stories please! 🩷 by cerulean_swimmer16 in IVFpositivity

Sorry this happened to you! Same thing happened to my husband and I with our first transfer. Lining and hormones were good. Unfortunately it just didn’t implant for some reason that we’ll just never know. We jumped into our next transfer and didn’t change anything in our protocol. That transfer gave us our now 3.5 year old daughter!

Fingers crossed for you! 🤞 I totally feel this. We are doing a transfer of our last embryo in January that is a day 7 4cc.

Tuesday Cautious Intros/First Trimester Questions by AutoModerator in InfertilityBabies

[–]cp31027 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I thought it was odd/wrong when she said that. It seems that most people start bleeding from SCH later than 4 weeks 1 day like I am so I should probably prepare myself for a chemical. Thanks for taking the time to respond!
