Pregnancy test sticks?

I haven’t seen this discussed elsewhere so here it goes. My wife is just under 300 lbs and we had an IUI procedure (because lesbians) and are taking the regular tests. Before now we were doing ovulation kits but never ever showing positive. I read on this forum that those kits don’t always work for big girls so we accepted that and stopped. Now with all these negative pregnancy tests I am wondering if there is any connection here. The clinic says these are supposed to be as accurate as a blood test but I honestly don't trust them after everything they’ve put us through. your experiences are welcome!

Experiences with Shady Grove in Colorado?

Hi all, just looking for your experiences with this fertility clinic if you've worked with them. It's been a living nightmare for us. This whole year has just been back and forths, begging them to tell us what's going on, to schedule the next thing. Today they admitted that something went through... 16 days after they originally told us it was handled. We are at our wit's end and feeling completely deflated.

At this point we are trying to figure out if we are the only couple they've ever worked with who has had this issue. Have we just been assigned a uniquely incompetent patient care team or is there something deeper? Is it something about us that they are sabotaging us? Or are they just bad at their jobs? Your insights if you've worked with them would be greatly appreciated.

Help me decide? Spot v ASPCA for 2 cats

What it says on the tin! I screenshotted the quotes I got today, they are very comparable, hoping for insight on customer service, timing, etc. I learned a lot from this forum already, it's been great. All info should be on the quotes but just ask if unclear.

Our 5 yr old was treated over the past two years for teeth issues, pasting this from her clinical summary in October, when she had extractions/cleaning done: "Grade 2 calculus, periodontal disease, heavy gingivitis noted on left side upper carnassial and premolar" Any insights here would be greatly appreciated! 😞 I'm aware this is now considered pre-existing I just don't know to what extent this will continue to impact her. (It was the $1400 bill from this visit that prompted me to look more closely at insurance. I was going to wait until our second was a little older but here we go lol)

Quote from Spot

*Spot offers an annual billing option that would save a few bucks ($2/mo or $24/yr) and appears to have other perks like $$ off furbo cameras and other accessories

Quote from ASPCA

*ASPCA is advertising a $25 gift card lol nice little perk
