    That was me who posted it originally.  One additional piece of info.  If you buy from Walgreen's, which I did for the Follistim, they have a program where you get $100 discount for every $1000 spent on stims meds (Menopur, Follistim, etc.).  It costs $25 to sign up, but they mail you a $25 Walgreens gift card, so it ends up essentially being free.  I forget the link to sign up, but they can tell you about it if you ask.

    Also, since the chart is on my work computer, I can't post it again right now, but here is a clicky to the original post: https://community.thebump.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/69646933.aspx

    10/10: Married; 5/11: Dx: Blocked Fallopian Tube; 7/11: D&C/Hysteroscopy to remove polyp
    IVF #1: 9/11: ER: 12R, 11M, 10F, No Frosties; 5dt: 2 blasts, 1 morula; DD born 6/3/12
    IVF #2: 11/12-12/12: ER: 20R, 20M, 16F, 4 Frosties; 5dt: 3 blasts, DS born 8/9/13

    I'm happy to help in any way possible.  I figured it was useful information, and there's no sense in all of us making all those phone calls if it's not necessary.  Goodness knows we have enough to worry about with IF, if I can reduce the burden just a little, I'm happy to help.
