It's getting real...

SillySally24SillySally24 member
in TTC after 35
I am emailing the pharmacy about getting all the meds, the syringes, etc right now.  Do I want to pick them up (only 40 mins away) or have them delivered by UPS? Leaning towards picking them up, since they have to be refrigerated and heaven forbid the package gets lost.   And pharmacist asked I wanted to get them all...  I thought I was supposed to - what could I hold off on, any ideas???

I could, in theory, be knocked up by Labor Day!

Me: 43, DOR   FI: 44, SA normal

    Hi! What kinds of meds are you getting? I'm taking Clomid this month, which I was able to pick up at the pharmacy by my house. I also am doing the Ovidrel shot some time next week. The specialty pharmacy called me.....they are also 40 minutes from me, so I had it delivered to me since it wasn't an extra charge. It will come Friday sometime between 8-5. I actually get off work at 1, so they told me over the phone it will be shipped in a cold pack so it should be okay on the porch until I'm able to get home. 

    I chose to have it delivered without a signature....but you can ask that it be delivered with a signature and you can have it even delivered to your work (per the lady I talked to on the phone)! I'm not worried about it being lost (good lord, I hope not because then I'm out $121!)

    I say pick them up. I have no idea if you want them all or not, though. I have no experience there. FX for you! ETA: clarification.

    ***siggy warning**** Good luck, I've had meds delivered in the past and always ended up having some issue and would have to rush and pick them up at fed ex before they closed so I could get them in time. It always ended up being stressful. I'd vote for picking them up!

    I have had 3 deliveries all together, and they were all awesome. There's ice packs in them that kept the stuff cold that needed to be. Even when I got out of work, those ice packs were still solid. My vote is for delivery. Good luck

    I got my Ovidrel delivery on Friday and my vote is definitely for delivery! Even in the Texas heat, the ice packs were fine and I didn't have to drive a hour and a half total to go get them. Since I was already paying $121 for the shot, you bet for damn sure I wasn't going to drive and pick it up when shipping was no extra charge! Good luck!
