Well it's pretty much the same

so we are going straight to IVF, pretty cool, DH is so keen for it even when I said we could end up with triplets

any idea on how much it costs?

Im so sorry to hear that. But don't lose hope. IVF has such high success rates that I know you'll get your sweet little baby. Did your DR describe what goes on during the IVF process? I have been looking into it and I was given an estimate between 10k-12k-- Try going to the TTC w/ Medical Assistance board. They ladies over there know alot about IVF. BUT PLEASE don't leave us-- we want to hear updates!!!

I am sorry! We did IVF w/ ICSI to conceive Brianna, and are gearing up for round two to give her a sibling. The cost varies based on the meds your doc uses, whether you freeze any embryos, etc. Our IVF in Dallas was about 10K with meds (ICSI adds a few thousand to standard IVF). The RE here in Las Vegas is about the same. Some insurance companies cover some portion of the IVF (like meds, or U/S, etc). If you have any questions, I'd be more than happy to answer them.

we had our appointment with the doctor today, we aren't doing IVF just yet, because DH's test result have slightly improved she referred us to a gyno for further tests and most probably put DH on testosterone. anyone's other half been on this? good results?
I have a feeling this is going to be a looooooooooong process (well worth it of course) so I'm not leaving the board just yet
