Results IVF #1- BFN

Just got the dreaded call- and it was what was expected.  Even though I knew this yesterday, it hurts just as much today.  There is no other way to say it- this totally sucks sucks sucks.

My IVF nurse gave me a bunch of donated Menopur & Bravelle, the most expensive meds, to get me started should we decide to go again. She just saved me around $4,000 since we are maxed out of our prescription drug cap.  The drugs that I would have to order that I still need only total about $175, which is a drop in the bucket.  I also made an appointment next Tuesday for a follow up with our doc to discuss further financing options if we do IVF cycle #2 since we are paying 100% out of pocket.  One of the nurses mentioned sometimes with special cases they will give a discount.  If he isn't able to help us, we have to decide what to do next.  We thought about trying on our own for the rest of this year and picking back up in 2012 but M & I have a lot to talk about.  I would like to try to enjoy the summer but every month I'm not proactively doing something to have a baby is a month I feel we will be squandering.  I know it's not right to think that way, but I can't help it.

One thing is for sure- if I am blessed enough to have 2 normal embryos next time, you better believe both of those babies are getting transferred. 

We are not giving up so easily!!!!!
