re: *OFFICIAL* Fertility Treatment Thread (Clomid, IVF, IUI)

Quoting Mrs.O♥:" My head hurts from how confused I am right now... I think we are switching our donor, which sucks because ... [snip!] ... the CMV status of all donors is available on their summary profile. ETA: Am I being paranoid or is this a good idea we switch?"

I think this would make me nervous also!

Quoting Spookshow Baby☠:" My RE's pharmacy was crazy expensive. My Clomid ranged from $30-$45 when you can get it at WalMart for $10"

I need to look at walmart next time I didn't even think of that! My clomid was 36

Quoting seattlemama3 *NMD*:" Ok ladies I'm trying not to think too much about this cycle and so far so good but we are getting into ... [snip!] ... so it is dried and bottom one is from this morning. I should have just stuck with the digi's there just so expensive. "

After using digitals, I'm sticking with them. Amazon has them a bit cheaper.

Quoting seattlemama3 *NMD*:" Mine was fun. All the guys got fat!!!! I didn't have very many riends in high school but it was good to see the few people I didn't keep in contact with. "

I didn't have many friends in high school, either. Most have FB profiles so it's easy to keep up to date. It'll be interesting though.

The digis work best for some and the regular ones best for others. I'm one of the others. I don't care what the digi says, if that line is dark I'm going for it. So far my charts say I haven't been wrong. Goooooood luck!  

So. Freaking. Annoyed.

I dropped off a form for my RE to sign and fax to the sperm bank at the end of the first week of the month. So we're coming up on 2 weeks. I'm buying my sperm at the end of the week. I just called the sperm bank to confirm that they received the form, and they have not.

Ugh. That's how things go with my IVF nurse. She's such a ditz and she will claim she never got the message or that she did what she was supposed to and doesn't know why they didn't get it on the other end.

Ugh that's so annoying! Hope they get the form soon!!

I'm going to get tested Wednesday for CMV, takes about 5-7 days for the test results. If I'm positive we will stay with our current donor, if I'm negative we will be switching. So I think we are going to look now for a negative donor just in case.

I just called my RE.... they're claiming it was mailed last Wednesday. It shouldn't take more than a day or two for it to arrive. The receptionist said she's going to fax it now. I'm getting nervous as close as we are to O day (about 5 days away or so). I just don't want a piece of paper to hold us up.

Will that all be done in time for your IUI?

I'm glad you're going forward with the testing   It'll ease your mind I hope!

Yes plenty of time. My IUI isn't until feb 8th-ish

I really hope they figure it out. I wonder why they didnt make you order it sooner. My RE requires that it's ordered and delivered before day 9 of my cycle.
