I am supposed to do the ovidrel shot as well. How do you feel on it?? Do you do it yourself?
I hope it brings lots of baby dust!!

Yard work for us lol
About the harmony - I think it's in Canada but expensive... I wish it was covered our provincial health insurance and do not understand why it's not.
Is the gender part a separate expense from the chromosomal abnormalities?

Good luck djmommy. I do not like needles, I use local anthesia cream and make my husband give me Ovidrel while I close my eyes lol!
Hitmebabyonemoretime - there is clinic in Toronto, they can do the test and cost around $300.
Yes, gender test is separate than chromosomal abnormalities.
My FS said that the Verify test (In Aus) is $595 and is just a blood test.. no scan...? Not claimable on medicare either.
True-- I'm loving your chart! Fingers crossed for you!
Just looked at your chart ;) it's beautiful!!! Definitely one to be excited with !!
It's not over till the fat lady sings, True. I was positive I wasn't preg last time and I was. How long is your LP normally?
Two BFNs, now I'm waiting for AF before testing again; due tomorrow or Monday.
AFM, I am waiting the whole darn nine months this time. Besides loving the idea of a surprise and experiencing that "Congratulations, it's a _____!" moment, I am taking my cousin's advice and waiting. With her third, being desperate for DD, she opted to not find out and believes it helped with GD a ton. Instead of dwelling on disappointment, she had DS3 in her arms and couldn't help but fall in love. To me, that makes sense. With DS2, after the scan, I was disappointed and couldn't "connect" to him, or the idea of him, for months, until right before the birth. That affected my whole pregnancy. Had he been in my arms, it would've been much easier to accept.
Just noticed someone else triggered by the royal baby. Yes! Totally happened to me. Feel so lame being jealous: "As if they aren't perfect enough, they get one of each right out the gate?!":rolleyes:
Waiting Waiting waiting for AF. Feels like it's taking forever. Just trying to tease me I'm sure!
Waiting waiting to test 3 more sleeps

Goodluck Magical! FXed xx
Silly me did a test today at 8dpo I know silly but there is a slight line but it could still be the trigger shot so will test tomorrow to see if it gets darker or not.

Oooooooo Good Luck Magical :fx:
Good luck :). FXed! AF found me today. Moving on to 2nd month. DH was like "What? No!! I never miss!" Lol. I think he's forgotten the 6 months it took to conceive DS1 already.
Magical I hope it's the real deal and not the trigger! Fxfxfxfx!!!!
CIB that's cute about DH :)

Advice please ladies!! I've been thinking about jumping the gun and going for my one attempt this month (due to o sometime over next 3 days) instead of waiting till June. My dilemma is I told dh to remove obstetrics from our private health after ds2 as at that time we were stopping at 2 kids. He agreed back in January to try for one more and sway but dragged his feet adding it back to private health so I did it myself in February. My problem is it will be a c section (I love and trust my obstetrician and she said no way to a vbac2) and if bub had to be delivered early I may not be covered. There's about a week leeway. Ds2 was delivered 10 days early as was big size so if bub had to be delivered earlier than 39 weeks I run the risk of not being covered. The insurance company is pretty good and would be ok with a few days early but more than a week not so much. What would you do? Think knowing I'm going to o is driving me a bit baby crazy!! Update *** just spoke to insurance and my ob and c section would be covered but not any additional theatre costs or private accommodation IF bub was delivered earlier than 39 weeks.... what to do?
It might be better to hold off if you are really set on using the same Ob and going private, unless you are happy to pay the cost (but then it would have been a waste paying extra for obstetric cover).
Waiting an extra month gives you 5 weeks buffer. You probably don't want the extra pressure at the end of your pregnancy. It also gives you more time on the diet if you need it.
Thanks purple! Thats the dilemma I am still covered for ob regardless and there may even be an option for her to do c section in public hospital if need be (they are connected) I would still be covered for shared private accommodation at public hospital to hence my dilemma. Have been on atomics le diet for 10 weeks Wednesday and was on a le diet on and off for 6 months prior to that. Dont think I've had meat for about 12 weeks. I feel like I'm talking myself into it lol. Plus conceiving first month is unlikely I'm about to turn 37 and dh is just shy of 45.... just feel so excited about ttc after so much planning I suppose
After talking with dh when he got home we're going to wait. I know it's the sensible to do. Sorry for crashing in like that everyone just got overexcited and ahead of myself.
Magical fx for you and so excited for your update!
Covered I'm waiting for AF too she should be here today. BFN this morning (to confirm) and temp drop so just waiting.
It's all the waiting that the hardest isn't it! A day feels like a week!
I know right? I'm back on track with my sway and more determined than before :) the good thing was I was really happy with our first attempt so I think the next one will be better :)
Pbn3 I think you're best holding out too. It's really hard, but it sounds like you'll be more at peace with your decision.

Pbn - you sound just like me on Friday!! I was like a cat on a hot tin roof - jumping backwards and forwards between - will we BD or not. It was because our window was Fri/Sat. In the end we didn't have an attempt - we are waiting until June and it feels better to wait in one sense, but another 4 weeks also seems so far away! Lol....
I think you will be happier knowing that you have all of your i's dotted and your t's crossed when the time comes for delivery options etc :)
