Small Investment

This is not an cheap process...although we are hoping worth every penny!

This blog is where I will document the amount of money we spend as we go along. This will help me keep up with it and will also offer some insight to other couples considering IVF.  Each date that I spend something related to this, I will note it here.  The total for the day will be in bold and an itemized description will be below it.

Total so far... $26,696.64
Addition expenses on future dates will include $1300 for freezing and thawing and storing additional embryos for 12 months.
