Did you see the mobile tutorial that rslh10 did for updating your siggy and such? 

I don't think. I'll have to go find it.

Here is the link to it: goodbyecb.proboards.com/thread/3485/mobile-iphone-siggy-tutorial

I'm not sure if it is iPhone only or if it would work for Android/windows phones but it might help.

Hi friends!  Sorry I've been absent... I haven't been able to participate much, but try and pop in when I can... The job transition is nutso and I've had to take two mornings off for IVF related classes and appointments so I'm totally stressed.

TTC wise - we weren't supposed to get in to an IVF class until Feb 18, but got in early (read last Wednesday) and did the 3.5 hour class and appt that day.  I don't have all my pre-reqs done so they couldn't give me my plan just yet, but they are working it up now.  I also had to attend a 1 hour PGD class on Tuesday and DH had to get his updated SA so we did all that on the same morning.  Now we wait... for AF (oh how I hope she stays away miraculously), and for our plan.  It will likely include BC for a few weeks and then starting injections after that with ER in March sometime.  We are doing full chromosomal testing and therefore have to do a frozen transfer vs. a fresh... So that would obviously be later.  

I did get my updated AMH number back and somehow it went up to 2.9 from 1.9 in May.  Not sure how that happened, but I hope it's good news for our IVF cycle.

I miss you ladies.  Know that I think of you daily and will be back soon to be a truly active participant.

YAY!!!  I'm so glad that you got into your class earlier than expected.  Sounds like you've got a great plan in place friend!

Thanks friend.  We have a few decisions ahead like which kinds of meds we want (if the doc gives us a choice)... I applied for Gonal-f Compassionate Care program yesterday so hopefully that will help... we didn't anticipate the meds being so high cost in addition to everything else... I'm just hoping I respond well.

My meds are promised to someone but she might only need menopur. Which leaves 750iuis of Gonal f if she doesn't take it. I'll let you know and it's yours. I am excited you are moving forward. What was the rationale with PGD if you don't mind me asking?

Hi ladies kind of late. The transition to PB has been rough for me just not great at it. But it was good reading everyone's updates. I am always cheering for you. Hugs to those who need them!

snegde - you're a gem.  I'd love your meds if you they aren't spoken for.  

Rationale on PGD was that dr's aren't sure what caused my losses and think that it could have been chromosomal just by default of course... So they think this is our best shot.  I am not totally sure on this at the moment and feel like it could be overkill (esp since its an extra $6K for complete screening)... So many decisions.
