- Timeline - I started my CD1 and reported it to my nurse who was able to give me a timeline for our treatment. It looks like my baseline is scheduled for 2/9 with an estimated ER on 2/26. It would have worked out a lot better schedule-wise if the ER was during President's Day weekend, but I'm happy to get a date and get started.
- Insurance - My new benefits have been verified at the clinic - yay! Finally. It took 3 weeks for that info to come in. Now that it's in, they can submit for authorization for an IVF cycle which may take another two weeks. Still... progress!
- Medication - Since my benefits were verified I was able to go ahead and schedule a delivery for the fertility medication. We had to work around the epic Blizzard 2016 and the delivery came today.
- Halachic all-clear - We were able to schedule an appointment with the Rabbi which I will elaborate more on in another post. We had specific questions which we needed answered before a cycle started and today we got our answers. This was an ongoing conversation my husband and I have discussed almost daily and finally having a resolution puts the issue to rest and gives peace of mind.
Even though the current schedule puts a transfer later than I wanted, I'm still glad we're moving forward. I'm praying for a successful cycle with embryos to transfer and not a repeat of disastrous IVF #2 where none of the embryos were viable. Late is still better than nothing, so I'll take it, and if it works the extra 6 weeks won't matter in the long run.
