WOW, that stings the wallet!!

So, my baby-in-a-box (medications) will be arriving on Thursday! YAY!! I'll be sure to lay all the meds out and take a nice pic for you so you can see the ridiculous amount of stuff this will be. I'll also itemize everything I got at that time, but in the meantime, I'll tell you what the damage is on these meds.

  • Now, if you recall, I've already purchased some of the stims, progesterone, and one trigger shot which came to $1023 and change
  • The BCP's and antibiotics I bought last week = $6
  • The additional meds I still need = $3700

SAY WHAT????? YES, you've read that correctly - an ADDITIONAL three thousand seven hundred smackeroos. My grand total for meds for this 1 cycle will be $4729 and change. OMG, I seriously wanted to puke when I heard that! So now that we know what the meds cost and barring any unexpected additional charges - our total for this one IVF cycle will be $12270...oh God, my stomach is rolling again, someone grab me a bucket!

Somehow, some way, in some form, I have to make sure I don't get stressed out about this. This will be our only chance for a fresh cycle but I cannot let the pressure get to me. Friends and family - please don't let me go to crazytown! Throw me a line if I start going down the path of negativity! Remind me to BE POSITIVE!

Ok, I'm done pleading for your help in keeping my sanity during this process...for now. Tomorrow I get my saline u/s and trial transfer done so I'll report back tomorrow night with what that's all like. Until then, I'm just going to remind myself that empty bank account = a bun in the oven...see, I really can be positive! ;-)
