Hi Ladies-
Im new here and looking for knowledge and support. I have heard nothing but wonderful things about the TTC Bump Girls. I am Brandi, 31, Central Valley California. Got married 6/11/2011 and have been ttc since. I have a low egg count and DH (Justin) is perfect. I took Femara 1 cycle and didnt respond. I tired Serophene and found out today, my didnt respond again. Largest one was 7. So after lots of tears, I decided to reach out. Next step is a combo cycle. Serophene days 2-6 and injections 7-14. Insurance is not covering injections and I have sticker shock over the pricing. $3,000 per cycle?! So crazy. I want to be a mom so bad, but I always want to be able to afford having a baby. Doctor said 1 combo cycle, 1 full injection cycle, then on to IVF. My egg count is too low to waste anymore time. Super depressing.
Long story short: Hi Ladies! haha
