****** - I work for a huge company (not as big as yours but we are one of your top suppliers) and we are self funded. It stinks because our accountants know when some procedure is done, just not to who/which location. Good luck sorting through everything.
I figured our company was in the "loop hole". In previous years, our plan was based out of a different state so they were excluded because of that! It's so frustrating. But. Hopefully I never need the IVF portion and I'm working on savings for IUI. I'll try to start with RE testing after the first if the year when deductible and oOP starts over.
Seriously put as much in your FSA as you are comfortable with. We maxed ours and used almost all of it just on testing. I know my case is speshulsneauflake but it's really helped us make decisions knowing we had to use the $2k by the end of the year. We are currently down to 2 cents on the card and it's because I miscalculated when I got my glasses.

wannabmama good luck tomorrow. ♪♫choppinbroccoli♫♪ it does get hard to see the negatives. I admire your willpower! daisy818 sorry for AF but at least limbo is over.
I am 13 DPO and got a BFN yesterday. I have bloodwork (pregnancy test) this Thursday and am just waiting to get that done and hopefully either AF or a BFP will come too. I feel like IF is such a waiting game.
QOTW- we aren't dressing up this year, but my coworkers and I have some matching costumes for the day of Halloween. Nothing fancy.
AFM, not much to update since my post on last week's check-in. I've had some time to get used to last week's news, and I'm more at peace with the idea of delaying transfer. I still feel anxious because it's not 100% that we'll get our foster sons' bio sibling, if their parents leave the state or are able to hide the baby. But it's most likely that DCFS will find the baby and place him/her with us. I wish we knew the due date so we could better anticipate when everything is going to happen!
I emailed our RE nurse today to tell her about our plans to delay transfer, and I haven't heard back yet... She probably just needs to let the RE know, but I'm nervous that she didn't write back right away and I'm worried she'll say it's too late to make changes to our IVF plan. FX everything will be okay and I'll hear back soon... because I'm waiting to hear from her before I order my meds! (since I probably won't need some of the ones on the initial list if we're not doing a fresh transfer)
QOTW: I don't think we'll dress up, besides our extremely low effort costumes we wear to Chipotle for discounted burritos. Our foster sons costumes will be really cute this year, so I'm excited for those.

I had my baseline US yesterday and my ute/ovaries are clear and free of cysts so I will be cycling this time.
I started gonal-f last night and will do that until Saturday. Monitoring US on Saturday and then probably more gonal-f then more monitoring and trigger when follies are big enough then IUI.
I would very much like to leave 2016 on a high note!
QOTW nope. I am no fun. But I do love giving out Candy!

X-post from 3T Zero eggs. There were three follicles, doc said they were a bit on small side and seemed to suggest there was an issue with the Hcg trigger. She asked if I did it right...I mean, I think I did. The same as last time...so who knows . This was going to be our last shot. They did some labs and I'll talk to my RE at some point. I'm just devastated.
