Hi Ladies! I'm mostly a lurker on these boards, but I have posted in the past on the 3T board. My history is in my siggy and I hope you don't mind me popping in to ask a couple questions about IVF. Our RE has recommended that we move on to IVF as soon as we are ready.
First, do any of you have experience with Conceptions in Colorado? We are lucky to live only 15 minutes away from them and I would love to exchange some messages with anyone who has experience with their clinic.
Second, we are waiting to start IVF until Jan/Feb 2014 because we will be switching to an insurance plan that covers some (but not all) of IVF. However, we have a little money left in our health spending account this year that we could use toward the initial IVF consult as well as some of the testing that will need to be re-done (HSG, SA, etc.). Do any of you have a recommendation on when we should start meeting with our IVF clinic if we want to be ready to go by Jan/Feb timeframe?
Thanks for your help!
