A Trip the RE for Baseline Numbers

Ahh...another wonderfully invasive trip to the RE!!! We went bright and early this morning to get all the baseline numbers, thinking they would then take us in to tell us what we do now....hahahaha!!! At any rate, it was quick and relatively painless, but uncomfortable. They drew some blood and did a vaginal ultrasound (as fun as it sounds, I assure you!). Mike was enthralled at the sight of my ovaries and follicles as show on the monitor. After that, they just kind of left us and we have to wait for our nurse to call with results and to tell us what we do now.

We also had to pay our deposit for treatment, so we did, thinking that we could then submit the claim to the insurance company. No such luck!!! We can't submit the claim until a procedure has been performed, but we can't have the procedure til we pay the money!!! So, that's totally annoying!!!!!

When we get the results, I post again.

And, one of our acquaintances who is also pregnant, was bemoaning the fact that they are going to have to pay $600 for the delivery of this baby. I wanted to reach out and punch her. Ummm...do you know how much we have to pay just to TRY??????????

So, keep an eye out for the update when we get results. We're hoping to be moving along here, and if they make me wait much longer, I'll scream!!!!
