all the hugs and ice cream and crappy TV, my friend.
I finally got some info about my referral! The Naval hospital's IF clinic is booking 3 months out so they aren't even approving referrals right now. Fortunately that means that I should have no trouble getting authorized to see a civilian RE. I spoke to my PCP's nurse and they put in a new referral for a local clinic. I went ahead and contacted the clinic and I now have a consult on the 17th of this month. Now I just have to wait for the referral to go through and start making a list of questions.

Ooooooooooo ironbaby, I'm crossing everything for you these next couple days.
ceejay is the goal unification for your foster son(s)? would that even still be on the table since the bio mom seems to have no regard for their wellbeing??? I really hope you guys have something definite soon and that the new baby is healthy.
butlerfan I'm glad you got an apology and a plan but man, I'd probably just take all of their shit and rent a storage unit.
@samrs22 I definitely wouldn't back away; of course you're still El come here. I'm orry your insurance won't allow you to move forward until your H quits, I know it's incredibly hard and I wish him a lot of luck.

AFM, I have an ultrasound tomorrow morning, CD11. I'm hoping my follicles are ready enough to trigger because I really don't feel like having to schedule another ultrasound. IUI would be....I guess Friday, Saturday, or Sunday then depending ::fingers crossed::
I'm hoping that H's counts look better for the real thing than they did for the run through last week. His post wash count was only 2 mil and he was seriously SPIRILING yesterday. So...I hope for both our sakes it looks better this time... :/
TTC since July 2014. CP March 2015. IVF #1 March 2016, 5R, 3M, 2F with ICSI. Transferred 2 on day 3. CP. Surprise BFP and then CP August 2016 (prep cycle for IVF). IVF #2: zero eggs retrieved IVF #3: 6R, 5M, 5F, 3 (2 8A and 1 11A) transferred, one "B" graded embryo frozen on day 5. BFP (at home 7dp3dt, confirmed 14dp3dt with 1552 beta) and U/S at 5w5d, 2 sacs and 2 yolks!
I finally heard back from Resolve and completed the next steps to be a host for a local infertility support group. I'll get the final go-ahead in the next two weeks. Yay!!

Yep, their official goal is still reunification, but there has been some talk of changing the boys' goal to adoption at the next court date. Nothing is for sure yet, so we're trying not to get our hopes up... The baby would be a totally separate case, so even if the boys' goal is changed to adoption in the next few months, the baby's case would be treated as a brand new foster care case, and the bio parents would have another year or more to try to get that child back.
FX for good follicles at your ultrasound tomorrow and good counts for your H on IUI day!

That's awesome I have been looking into doing that as well. Surprisingly there is only one non-professionally led group here and it's kinda far away. You'll have to let me know how it goes.

I will, for sure. There's a good recording you can request to get info. It's pretty helpful.

So I have one awesome 19mm follie on my right ovary, one smaller one, and a couple tiny insignificant ones on the left.
I have to go back tomorrow am for another U/S then hopefully trigger with the IUI on Saturday. They don't want to trigger until it's 22mm, sound reasonable to you veterans?

Yes I'm pretty sure my re wanted it to be larger than 22 to trigger. That's awesome though! Good luck:)

My RE had me trigger the night of my monitoring appointments as long as my biggest follicle was 18 mm or bigger at my morning appointment.
But... I also didn't have much confidence in my RE office with their IUI protocols and standards, so take that with a grain of salt...
Random thought ceejay would going to the new RE office maybe have you try IUI one more time due to how it seems their procedures are out of date? Not to have you question anything/everything that your RE did now that you have made a decision about embryo adoption.
Edit to add: I think I worded the above wrong but can't figure out how to word it better.

I've had this thought too. I'm planning to ask about that at our consultation at the new place next week. H's urologist did say that our RE's post wash counts looked fairly low, and I also question if they had me trigger too early. But H's counts did seem to be declining, so it may not be worth pursuing another IUI, but we'll ask.
