A small update on IVF & Life

So we had some computer issues for the last week and I was unable to update, but my most wonderful husband bought me a new laptop on Saturday he is great :)

So there is not much to update on I have recently been working on getting our family on a budget and making sure that we will be able to afford another cycle of IVF, as our insurance covers absolutley nothing and we just put braces on Bree and Jordy needs them too, thankfully we will be able to cover this cycle!!! Yay!!! but the down side is we are most likely looking at an April start date, instead of February/March! which sucks but at least we get to try again.

So as I have been asked a million times how much IVF costs, here is our estimated cost breakdown for this cycle:

Consultation fee $ 300.00
IVF Package $9,200.00 (this fee includes everything but freezing, meds and ICIS)
Freezing 600.00 (if we have any to freeze)
Meds $1,500.00 (our estimated cost may be more)
Total $11,600.00 *estimate

Our previous two cycles as one was canceled before ER and one at ER cost us about $10,000 together.

We are officailly 19 days for our appointment, we are so excited.

Oh and we were discussing baby names as we do often and we picked a girl name that we absolutely love: Evelyn Catherine Ridge, we have no hope on ever agreeing on a boy name.
