Would Dr. Potter allow for me to pretest, stim and monitor locally and just go to him/HRzc for ER and transfer?
Stiming is shots and medications due to pretest results correct? :think:
Monitoring is just that monitoring and ultrasounds or whatever to see how one is reacting to stims?
Or is this just a bad idea altogether and should just do it right and do it all with Dr. Potter?
Bump :) no answer dying to know
You can easily do pretesting and monitoring at home. I always arrived day HRC on day 9 of stims where Dr Potter did a scan. That's the latest you can arrive at HRC.
But if you want a fresh transfer you still have to stay at least 10 days????Quote:

I was told that I needed to stay 12 nights, but they prefer 3 nights. So they prefer 13 nights, 3 full days of bed rest after the transfer. And, yes that is for a fresh transfer. I am sure for a 5 day transfer it was a day less, but now since it's 6 days it's one day even longer!! I really wanted to go to Dr. Potter, but I just can't be away from my son for that long and taking him would be too much for me since my husband can't come for work!! Hope you can try and make it work!!
It's going to unbelievably hard to travel with 3 very little girls but all the clinics locally either have low success rates or are so much more expensive. I'm bummed
None of HT is easy. Many here have travelled with lots of kids and from long distances. I am from Australia and know hundreds every year travel to the US.Quote:

Give yourself time. You will work out a good plan for your family.
Either way is fine. I prefer to have the last monitoring visit here but either way is fine.Quote:
