When I called our IVF nurse today to tell her we made a decision about doing an FET she proceeding in telling me that they have knocked the fresh IVF cycle back down to $3K. She said it sheepishly, knowing that the news will put us back to step one in decision-making.
Tonight we will discuss if, b/c of the price, we might just do another fresh cycle. Will I regret it if we don't? Will this chance come again? If we do, and it doesn't work, will I feel like we just wasted that much more money? Or will I be happy that we still have our frosties? How much can we feasibly spend? How much, regardless of reality, am I willing to spend on having a child? When is it enough?

Wow! You have so much to think about! I wish I could give you some good advice about all this, but I can't...just trust your hearts and know that you are making the right decision, whatever that may be!
Ugh, what a pain! In case this helps...My doctor recommended an FET after our canceled IVF cycle, but I think that was partly to let my body fully heal from the trauma. I found it helpful though, because it helped us diagnose a slight embryo quality issue (i.e. all of the eggs had been harvested using the same formula of drugs), and so we're going to try something different with our next IVF. However, it absolutely comes down to what you feel comfortable with, and whether you'd be willing (and able) to try another FET, plus an IVF, plus...? Good luck! Thinking of you :-)
Totally out of the loop as to why they knocked down the "fresh" price...but I say GO for it!!! The frosties will always be there.
Loaded questions - all of them. Ones that, in my ever so humble opinion!, no one should ever have to make. I hate it that you do.
