The next chapter begins....

Since our appointment on the 14th, I have researched and gathered information, talked to doctor offices, insurance companies, prescription savings programs and pharmacies, trying to save as much as possible for our IUI attempt. I have added my short term disability and hospital confinement supplemental insurance policies that will assist me when we have a baby, and considered a Flexible Spending Account to take advantage of tax free money to help pay for medical stuff. My spreadsheet is made and the grand total including travel and hotel to and from Raleigh is $3700.00. Funding has been secured for the process, and our fingers are crossed.

We havent yet decided when we will begin the cycle so Greg and I will sit down this weekend and figure out at date. We will also work on our finances and budgets so we can begin to save some money to be prepared for starting our family.

You would think this process would be exciting, and at times it is. But I can not control my mind from thinking of all the what ifs. What if it doesnt work, what if it works, what if I miscarry, what if I have twins.........    And now a whole new to do list has started in my mind....including stopping drinking diet sundrop....YIKES!!! now that is stressful!!!!

So for those of you who follow or check in occasionally, be prepared to see the good the bad and the ugly of an IUI cycle......Im sure that I am gonna need to do a lot of venting, ranting, and crying in the next few weeks. Prayers and thoughts are much appreciated <3
