Day at the Hospital

So we spent the whole day at the hospital today getting everything in order for our IVF.

The schedule went like this:

9am          Conference with Office manager
                (translation.... money talk...notice how they schedule this first)
930am      Embryology class
1130 am   Mock Transfer- A and Back up Sperm Sample-J
Lunch       We went to Mellow Mushroom
                 (apparently we need all the mellow we can get....)
200pm      Injection class

Wow it was alot to take in but it answered so many of my questions. My poor husband had to suffer through it all (well except for the sample part). I was nuts about the embryologist she has a ton of experience and some great success rates. She took the time to explain everything to us. I had read up on all the latest technologies that most of the better clinics employ and was glad to discover that they our the first in the area to use many of them. Poor girl next to J and I  had absolutely no clue what was going on.....how can you be so misinformed when you are dropping this kind of money? J and I joked that we hope they do not mix up my eggs and hers!


Here's a pic of the Hospital.

  1. Im glad that things went well! We dont have any of those classes! They do everything with just the couple as you get to each step, but of course you hand over that money before any of it is started!
