Posted in HSG, pre-cycling on November 26, 2008 | 5 Comments »
Holy Crap, I’m still in so much pain from today’s HSG that I think I might throw up. It comes and goes in waves, but this is really not feeling great. I’m not enjoying this. Update (6am, Wed.): The pain has subsided quite a bit, but I’m still really nauseated. It is possible the nausea [...]
The Plan and the Insurance Sitch
Posted in pre-cycling on November 25, 2008 | 5 Comments »
First, see my previous post for the latest on my girly parts. Second, here’s the latest on the insurance situation: I am definitely switching to the insurance at Big Large Corporation (BLC). It is unquestionably better coverage. If I exhaust my coverage under BLC, I can go back to my husband’s insurance and then exhaust [...]
The Plot Thickens
Posted in HSG, pre-cycling on November 25, 2008 | 5 Comments »
So I had my HSG today. Truthfully, an HSG wasn’t strictly necessary, since we knew we were going to do IVF no matter what the HSG indicated, so I could have just done a sonohystogram, since all Dr. McB really needed to see was the uterine cavity, but he left it up to me to [...]
*SCREEEEEEECH!*
Posted in Plan B (not THAT kind of Plan B), pre-cycling on November 24, 2008 | 7 Comments »
Change in Plans. Let me back up. I’ve been working at my current job as a subcontractor to BIG LARGE CORPORATION (BLC) since January. As a subcontractor, I did not have medical benefits (or any benefits, for that matter), which was fine, because I have medical benefits through my husband’s employer. I was recently hired [...]
Batching
Posted in pre-cycling, protocol on November 21, 2008 | 6 Comments »
One thing I keep forgetting to post… when I spoke with the infertility nurse coordinator on Wednesday she cleared up one thing that had really, really, really bothered me about The Hatchery and made me feel much, much better. The Hatchery batches their IVFs, which really bugs me because it gives me less control over [...]

Metformin? Sucks.
dye with HSG
Posted in breastfeeding, pre-cycling on November 20, 2008 | 3 Comments »
Hey this may seem really stupid, but does anyone know what kind of dye is used with an HSG? And do you know whether there’s any problem breastfeeding after an HSG? My guess is there’s no problem since it’s injected into the uterus, not into the bloodstream, but, of course, it goes out through the [...]
Money Matters, Labwork, and Moving Forward

I talked to the financial coordinator at The Hatchery on Tuesday. She went over my benefits for fertility coverage. We’re covered so long as my husband and I have been married for at least a year (check) and he’s been employed by the hospital for at least two years (check). I have to fax a [...]
Meeting with Dr. McBrusque
Posted in pre-cycling on November 19, 2008 | 8 Comments »
Yesterday, my husband and I met with the reproductive endocrinologist (RE) at our new clinic, henceforth referred to as “The Hatchery”*, yesterday. Not to be unoriginal or anything, but we’ll refer to the doctor as Dr. McBrusque, because, well, that’s what he was: brusque. I should note that I had to fight very hard not [...]
