Some United Health Care plans cover it. They covered mine.

It was the most beautiful thing! We got our hb at approximately 51/2 weeks! The most beautiful thing you'll ever hear!

First off, congrats on your wonderful news! Pregnancy is always a time of mixed emotions........... especially the first trimester! You're happy, you're scared, you're doubtful. Just keep in mind, however, that all of these feelings are completely normal. I myself am 12 weeks pregnant with my first ...

Hi all,

I've noticed over the past week or so that my nipples have been declining in the amount of tenderness. This has worried me, of course, as I am 12 weeks pregnant and I thought I should be feeling breast soreness for quite some time throughout the pregnancy.

I have had a breast reduction (6 ...

Zen,

Are you, by any chance, on the progesterone suppositories? They can make you spot brown. I had it mostly weeks 5-8. It's starting to ease up a little bit now, but I still have it occasionally. Everytime I take my neurotic self for a checkup, the baby's fine.

Daly,

You were right on the money about the sch--that's exactly what it was. I want to thank you for putting me at ease with your response. I went to have an u/s today because the bleeding was just freaking me out. Junior was all over the place! :lol: It was so cute! The Doc tells me that the ...

Hilda,

First, I'd like to say congratulations to you and your DH on your happy news. I, like you, got pregnant on my first IVF cycle. It has been a roller coaster of emotions for us. In my 5th week of pregnancy I was hospitalized for hyperstimulation :? It was a nightmare! I didn't have to be ...

I was on estrogen patches (applied once every 3 days) from the day of transfer until the eigth week of pregnancy. I was worried to entire time because I, too, had read about risks to developing fetus. I discussed with MD and he said that the risk in IVF patients was very low because the body was not ...

My RE had me on both injectable progesterone, vaginal progesterone suppositories and estrogen patches since the transfer. Last week Thursday was my last patch application (which I had been applying every three days and today was my last injection, but he wants me to continue the suppositories until ...

I, myself, have a January 28th due date

Kathi, that is REALLY awesome! When I hear stories like yours (and consider my very own), it just gives me goose bumps all over! Congrats on your BFP and I wish you and DH well!

Hi Rockrat71,

I'm 33 years old and have been married for 12 years-- with my husband for 3 years before that. From the time that we were married, we have been trying to have a child, that is, up until the year 2000 after my SECOND ruptured ...
