I know this is silly considering my DH and I have been TTC for so long, but it's something I think about every time I order meds. I am supposed to order them about a week before I start AF. But, what if you order them and then find out you are pregnant before you start taking them? Does anyone else worry about this, or am I just a worrier?

think about it -- if you had a miracle pregnancy you'd be so happy you wouldn't care if you had just bought a truckload of meds.

I ordered mine immediately after ovulating--then found out we were pregnant and gave them to a friend who needed them. Some people sell them (you will hear how illegal that is, but its done). Some donate them. Others hang on to them--after my miscarriage that is what I did--I figured if i got pregnant again I would keep them till I was certain we would get a live baby out of it.

Back in June I had just bought $200 worth of PIO because we were pregnant after IVF--and found out that I was miscarrying. I almost threw it out, but I was glad I didn't, as now I was able to use it again after my RE wanted me back on it post-FET and my progesterone levels were too low! As the others said though, i could care less about the cost of any unused meds if I could carry a baby to term...
By the way, i loved the mail order pharm. I used in Ohio--Barron's Pharmacy. They overnight everything free and they were cheapest on most of my meds AND they are so easy to work with. I recently called there for a refill and he didn't even require the RX for it--he just overnighted it to me without a problem. Awesome!

Thanks for your replies. If I was able to get pregnant naturally, I would be so happy, the thought of spending that money wouldn't even cross my mind.

Freedom Pharmacy is another Pharmacy who will overnight you your meds.
