Fun facts for the day

Semen analysis: $100
Artificial insemination -- husband: $400-500 (intrauterine insemination; they stick the sperm in the uterus where the uterus and tubes meet so they can swim on down to the egg)
Artificial insemination -- donor: $1000 (same procedure but you have to buy the sperm)
In vitro fertilization: $10-14,000 per cycle

I saw 3 women in the REI clinic for infertility today. The youngest was 25. The oldest was 35.

Thanks. I didn't already have enough worries about having babies. Really.
