Hello, me again! IUI at my dr's office is $150 per round. That is the only procedure my insurance will cover.. (they will cover up to $800).. Do you feel comfortable with your new dr. ? The reason I ask is becuz the first RE I saw was a little on the shady side so me and my husband went to another RE and we absolutely love him. How did he know that your chances were under 50% w/ only seeing you 1 time? How is your husband holding up through all this? I think mine is going crazy.. Now he's on this kick saying that he will not cut his hair until I get pregnant. It's already starting to wolf. At Mon, 30 Jan 2006, anonymous@obgyn.net wrote: >
