Wow Tamarra it sounds like the ball is really rolling on it then, that’s wonderful. I truly hope that this is your answer and it works first time round for you. Yes please let us know more as you progress with it. How bizarre having to go back on the pill to get pregnant, silly isn’t it?
Hi again Emily, nice to see you back on here again. Can I ask why Clomid is not an option for you, no stress if you don’t want to explain I can totally understand. That seems to be all we ever do…explain to people why we can’t get preggas, well that’s how it feels for me anyway.
Hey Jess, yes my month off has gone pretty well. Think I’m coming to the end of it though. Pretty sure AF will arrive by the weekend, but that’s good new cos then that will mean that I ovulated on my own. Good luck with your month off, it’s a great break, I really feel like I am back to my normal self with Clomid totally out of my system. Oh well here comes crazy Keli again, ha ha!
Hi Keli - Nah its cool. Turns out I'm not the only one with a problem. My hubby has a very low count and its not due to anything we can help. Its genetic.
Had our first appt with ivf specialist today - he was very positive so that was reassuring. We both have to do a series of blood tests and scans. One of the blood tests is going to cost 800 do you believe!! Its to test my husbands genetic makeup. Its amazing the stuff they can do. Go back next year to begin process.
Tammara - Good luck!! I hope it works out for you, you are very lucky that you have such a wonderful cousin.
Morning Emily,
Thanks for sharing. Wow, has he never been tested before? At least it’s good to know that you can move onto the next step now. OMG $800 for a blood test is crazy. Can I also ask if you have private help insurance?
Keli
No he hasnt. Thats the most frustrating thing about it. Last time I was at the ob I asked him - said shouldnt hubby be tested. His response was oh i'm pretty positive your the problem but just to ease your mind i'll give you a referral. So we've been wasting our time on clomid.
I have basic health care. I was on a higher cover previously.
I'm just over half way through my 2WW not that I hold much hopes. I've made an appointment with Dr W DeAmbrosis (QFG) for February to consult about possible IVF (lap results permitting anyway) have any of you ladies had him for a Dr before?
No it doesnt cover at all. But I've had a lot of feedback from people saying that they dont actually give much back, majority comes back from medicare. One of the reasons I decided to go on the basic cover.
