So, talked with IM. She had evidently gotten a bit dejected about the financial aspects of the journey after talking with the lawyer and thought my numbers were written in stone... so she gave up.
The part that L, the IM, had problems with fiancially were all the whatifs. I had requested several fees for things above and beyond normal: caesarean section, bedrest, weekly housekeeper if on bedrest, tranfer and loss of organ. I removed all of these from our contract. (Total ~$8000)
Since L is only transferring a single embryo, we have only a minute possibility of twins and even less for triplets or quads. L is allowing me to choose a birth center in which midwives will do all the OB monitoring. With this comes less medically routine surgeries, inductions, etc. L doesn't want amnios done and we'll have a single sono done to s3x the child. Since I won't be high risk, there just a LOT less chance of needing that bedrest or caesarean section (I've never had one).
We're pushing the saline ultrasound to next month while L finishes up her side of things and we get the contract taken care of. Looks like we won't be trying for a transfer until January which is great =)

Hope it goes well!
The shots aren't too bad. I did all the sub-q shots myself and then DH did my IM shots. I was psyched up for them to be much worse.
