November 16:

Af came today and shocked me no signs she was coming. Also she was early. I was on day 35 normally 45 day cycles. Today I called the doctor office to start ferilty and the lady (she must be new) said I could come today at 11am. I could not make it because I did not have the car. So I told her this and she told me well you have to wait to next cycle because they are closed for the Hoildays and I would have to have the vaginal U/S within 3 days. I was upset she told me to hold on and came back on the phone and said how about Friday at 2pm.

November 28:

Doctor Appt. Oh my, what a visit. When I got there the waiting room was packed no seats. I have been going to this doctor for four years I have never seen it that busy. So I waited about a hour and then went to the room the dr did the u/s and said everything look good. When I was done I had to go back out to the waiting room and wait to be called back to another room where they went over what meds I had to take, how much and how many days, drink lots of water, limit salt intake and if I remind how to do everything. Since no meds were order for me on Wednesday when I called to make the appt. I had to get meds from the office. Here is where the drama starts. So they give me this paper where I put my credit card number down to pay for the meds. I ask the lady at the front desk who is new how much they would be (Because I only have so much put aside) she tells me she does not know but to call this number and she thinks my insurance won't pay for it because I got it in the office when you get meds from the office the insurance won't pay for it. HELLO this is why I have insurance. It is not my fault no one called in the meds when they knew what I am doing it is in the chart. I guess the dr went with a new compnay to do our ferilty drugs so now everything has to start all over. All she can tell me is to call the number nothing else. This is not help at all. So I call the number she gives me and they are not working to call back on Monday.

I did start my shots today. I will take the shots for seven days and go back on Dec. 5th for another u/s to see how my eggs are growing.

December 1:

This new pharmacy is a joke. So I called the number finally got a hold of someone and she said they do run it through my insurance and I would have to make a copay fine. She takes all my info. down and says we have new computers and it is not reading your insurance so we will call you back. I finally get a call and they lady tell wants all the info. again and then tells me I don't have ferilty coverage. She then reads off my birthdate and it is wrong. That is why the insurance won't except it. So she says the someone will call me back. Because I also have other meds that were order. So a nurse will call me back and tell me my price. About thirty minutes later I get another call from a guy who tells me the price of the meds from the office I agreed to the price, then asked him what about my other meds that were order he said well they have two accounts for you because of your birthdate ok. He ask when do I need the meds I say tomorrow. He says I will call you back in ten minutes. Well, I never got a call from him and I have no meds for tomorrow. So I guess I have to call them and my dr. office and see where I go from here. This is my fourth time doing this ferilty and I have nevered had so many problems. Well, see what tomorrow brings.

December 2 & 3:

So finally yesterday I called the pharmacy back and a lady finally helped me. I was then turned over to another lady who helped get me my meds, make sure it went through the insurance, and charged me right. I did have to go to my dr. office yestereday to pick up another dose of the shots because it was never shipped from the pharmacy in time. Also today I received the overidal but it was not that cold the way the company shipped it was not good at all. Then they did not include my recipt so I will have to call them tomorrow and ask for one that is the only way we can get back some of the money we had to pay. I so miss the other company. They had my meds on time, shipped it with big ice so the meds would stay cold, and gave me recipt and made sure my name was on the meds. This place that I just went to did none of the above. I was told yestereday by the dr office they still go through the other company next time I need to request and I will.

Dec. 5th:

This morning was overwhelming. I had to get up at 2am to take hubby to work then back home back to sleep then up at 5am to get ready to go give blood. They open at 5:30am and the early you go less people. My kids were a troopers they got up and was very talkative and smiling both times they had to get up. So I went to get my estradiol level checked to see how my eggs are doing. When I gave blood my son held my hand and my daugther held my coat. I guess these are there jobs. They are so cute. When the lady took my blood she took out the needle and it bubbled. Gross I got a big burse oh while. So later I went to the dr. to have a vaginal u/s to see how the eggs are growing. Since I have been on the shots for seven days they should have been bigger. Nope my numbers were for my estradiol only a 55 which it should be somewhere closet to 200. I have two eggs that are getting bigger one on the left a 10 and one on the right a 13 they need to be 18. So the nurse said maybe this weekend they will hit their peek. So I have to be on the shots for three more days and go and do everything over again on Monday hopefully it worked.

Dec. 8th:

Well, this morning did the same as Friday except hubby went to work later so I took him to work then straight to give blood for my estradiol. A different lady was there today and when she pulled out the needle it did not bubble this time. My kids did their jobs my son held my hand, my daughter held my jacket. I think it is so cute how they want to take care of their mommy. Later had a dr. appt and found out that my estradiol number was only 69 the nurse said it means my body is not working hard on produce my eggs growing. But my numbers should have been higher over the weekend. So she did the u/s and the results my left now has two eggs one that is 9 and the 10 went to a 13 not big enough and on the right side has two a 10 and the one 13 stayed the same. The nurse was surpise that I had two more get bigger but neither one got to a 18 where I need it to be. So that means more meds that I did not plan for in my buget. Well, I was told to go in the other room and they would come back on my insturctions. So the nurse came in and said because the Follistim is not working like they want it they gave me Menopur that I have to mix my self. This med has the same stuff as Follistim but has something else also in it. I will take it for three days and go back on Thursday and do everything all over again. Right now I am very upset this would be my fourth time doing treatment over the last four years and never had this problem before the very first time I did the ferilty got pregnant with my triplets, then the second time nothing, third time got pregnant with our son. I don't know why and it is frusting. I am praying that Thursday will be it.

Dec. 11th:

Well, this morning I went to give blood and had to wait a half an hour because they were busy. My kids were troopers they behave the best they could. Well, when I went in my son held my hand my duaghter held my jacket and on the way out my duaghter tells the lady see you later. I am thinking I hope not anytime soon. So I went to the dr. appt and the nurse did the u/s and this nurse never lets me see the u/s the other nurse does and explains it to me. Oh while, so the nurse says my numbers finally went up to 150 good numbers and I have one egg that is ready to go. YEAH!!!!!! So I had to take one more shot yesterday and got my Super Ovulation Insturctions. Have to have sex tonight tomorrow morning at 8am take the Ovidrel, have sex 12/13/08 after 8pm and 12/14/08 am or before 8pm. Then Sunday night I have to start taking Prometrium 200mg at bedtime. Continue taking Prenatal Vitamins, Baby Aspirin, and Glucophage. Wait two weeks. Alot to take in and I guess I will never get over understanding having instructions to have a baby and when to do it. I will keep doing it though because this is how I get my beautiful children. So I have decided to take a pg test next Saturday to see if the ovidrel is out of my system. So if it is a neg. I will then cheat and take a test christmas morning to is if it is pos. if the next is pos then I know the ovidrel is still in my system and won't take the test until I am suppose to. My date to take the test is Dec. 27th. Good thing it is Christmas time I will be keeping myself busy the next two week.

December 23, 2008

Wow the last two weeks have been a little crazy. So when we weres suppose to bed at a certain time we did not. I wanted romance and hubby was not willing to give it to me. He has been kind of weriod lately I don't know because he is scared to get pregnant again. So I spent the time being mad at him. Before one of the last time was up we did do it though. So I don't know if it we will be pregnant or not. We will see. So on the Sunday I was suppose to start taking Prometrium well, I went into Walgreens they had to call my insurance to see if they covered it and then they were out. They told me that I could go to another Walgreens down the way.Alright but they said do you know the co-pay it came out to $175.00 for a 30-day supply. I said no thank you I can't afford that right now. So the next day I callled the dr. office to explain that I don't have that type of money to pay for meds right now. She told me that one of nurses will call me back. So later that day I got a call from the nurse who explained that they justed wanted to be safe this time even though I have never miscarrage in the first 12 weeks. My two have been in the second trisemster. So I have two decisions. One I don't take it at all or I go get blood work done to see where my prostgone level is. If it comes back low then I need to find the money and pay for it and take it only if my test is postive. So on Friday (12/19) I went back to give blood and I guess it takes 3-5 days to get the results so I will find out soon. On Saturday I did wake up and took a pg test and it was negative so I guess the meds are out of my system. So I will be testing on Christmas morning. I feel like my AF is going to show and preparing myself for that negative. I do have a back up plan in case it is neagative on what I want to do and have decided to retry in May 2009. So we will see only two more days. I am hoping though it is a postive. I will updated probaly on Friday after christmas.

Hope everyone is doing well. Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !!! For those who had their babies this year congrats on their first christmas what a fun time. For those who are pregnant congrats and have fun being pregnant and for those who are TTC you will get a postive soon and have a Merry Christmas. Here is to 2009 a new year with new hopes and dreams and new beginnings.

December 25, 2008

So this morning I woke up around 4am to take a test and it was BFN!!! So I guess this time the ferilty did not work. I did not let it ruin my day. I had a blast with Family and my two beautiful children. I guess my friend AF will be showing up in the next couple of days. My boobs have been really sore this time around. I have decided that I will test again on Saturday the date I was suppose to test on. The test will proabaly be the same. BFN and to top it off my friend told me she is excepting today. I am happy but sad because I also wanted to be excepting. I have decided that maybe I will try again next year in May that way I can save more money for the ferilty treatments again. Well, I hope everyone had a wonderful Holiday.

December 27, 2008

Alright so yesterday I bought a digtal test because I am not going through the false postive again. So I could not wait I wanted to know if it was a BFN still. Had to know. To my surprise it was a BFP it said pregnant. I was in shock I just took a test the morning before and it was stil negative. So I took another this morning and it says Pregnant. So on Monday I will call the offfice and get blood taken and my results to see how high my numbers are. I am in shock it worked. Yesterday I was really bummed because my friend was pregnant and did not want to be pregnant here I went through all this and got a negative. I guess I should have not have cheated on the days I need to wait to the say to take a test. Well, I hope everyone has a good weekend.
