My wife was having trouble carrying, and her fertility doc prescribed this blood thinner... Apparently it can't do any harm, and can help with clotting disorders. --- End quote --- She has been on that the whole time. It was really funny, because the first time she had to do the shot she almost passed out. Now, it is nothing to her. That stuff is VERY expensive - $2000/month. I count my lucky stars that insurance covered it. --- End quote --- Ah. My wife went through the full year of fertility shots... I ended up getting quite good at administering them. You are quite right, the meds are insane-expensive. I think I figured out that without the insurance covering the meds, it would have been like $45k in meds alone. Oh, as to the shots. I was good at it - unless she made me mad that day. In that case, I got quite good at finding a nerve. ;) |

I did it for her at first, but then she got sick of waking up at 6:30am for me to do it before I went to work. ;D |

Update again: Looks like we will be scheduling a 37 week C-section for Feb. 7th pending if Michelle doesn't go into labor before then. I jsut want to thank everyone again for showing your support and praying for us. Of course, after reading that inspirational story of the guy hurrying up the birth of his son so he could go to the Bears game, I may just have to delay the C-section so we can watch the new Lost episode that night. Think I could get on CNN news for that? Just Kidding! :laugh2: |

The Super Bowl is 2/4 and the Pro Bowl 2/10. You would have to schedule it for after 2/10 just in case complications prevented you from watching indifferent all pros screw around in Hawaii for a week. |

Glad to hear that Michelle has been able to hold on this long. Keep taking it day by day and before you know it it will be all over. Take Care, We're pulling for you all. :angel: |
