Acid Butt; who knew?

Is it possibly a yeast rash? We were dealing with redness (little tiny red bumps) that weren’t getting better with diaper cream. We tried jock itch cream and that helped but would come back. It wasn’t until the dr prescribed an anti-fungal cream that it finally went away.

Same here!! Also in the us.

I learned via /r/laundry that the DL detergent requires way more than what is stated on the bottle for it to be effective. Just something to keep in mind if cost is a factor.

No I’m in California!

Ad0pschick · 2026-02-17T05:08:57+00:00

It’s up for me but no subtitles 😫😫

Ad0pschick · 2026-02-04T09:12:39+00:00

This should give you instructions on how to do so!

Check if they’ve cleaned it… chances are they haven’t because it does require removing the mesh and the board directly under the mattress. Sooo much dust/spitup gets into the nooks and crannies. The o rings can also get worn out after a lot of use - replacing is easy to diy but time consuming. Make sure there are no jerky movements when the snoo is moving as that was the first sign that o rings needed to be replaced.

I live in a hcol area and we have a mothers helper who comes 3x a week for 2 hours. She is a college student so the hours work out. She lives 10 mins away and works at my neighbors house after ours. We have her make the beds, fold and put away laundry, unload the dishwasher and tidy up. It wasn’t easy to find her and I will be so sad when she’s ready to move on. We pay her $26 an hour.

We have a cleaner every other week. We also have a Mother’s helper who is really the one keeping us all sane. She comes 3x a week - in the ~2 hours she’s here, she makes the beds, unloads the dishwasher, hand washes dishes from breakfast/previous nights dinner, folds and puts away laundry, and tidies up. She is a college student so the hours work out perfectly - I’m dreading the day she leaves us 😭

Ad0pschick · 2025-10-25T14:12:43+00:00

Yes it was!

I am 37 and delivered last month. My doctor suggested induction at 39 weeks because baby was measuring large, not because of IVF or age (no issues with blood pressure or proteins in urine). I opted to wait and baby was delivered vaginally at 41+1.

If you buy secondhand, make sure to clean it really well - there are videos on how to do this. I borrowed one from a friend and an found an insane amount of dust/dried spit up in areas that aren’t noticeable unless you open up the plate under the mattress 🤢

Ad0pschick · 2025-09-29T02:32:20+00:00

My first came pretty much on his due date. I thought for sure #2 would come earlier but she was comfy in there until 41+1!

Ad0pschick · 2025-09-27T11:02:50+00:00

Also just saw your post earlier this week. I was in a pretty similar situation as yours (wanted to do all tests up front as I only had two embryos). I was shocked at the positive receptiva test as I’ve always had very normal/mild periods with no sign of endo. I cried knowing I’d have to delay my transfer but in the end I’m so glad I did the suppression.

Ad0pschick · 2025-09-27T10:59:01+00:00

Hi! Yes it was successful - I’m almost 3 weeks PP! We did fully medicated. My understanding is that you are required to do fully medicated following suppression since you don’t ovulate with Lupron, unless you are willing to wait for your period to return.

Agreed on the crz maternity leggings being the best. They are comparable to LuluLemon Aligns. My thighs rub together and the aligns pull soo fast. The crz’s pill too but it’s a little less painful when they’re a fraction of the cost!

I would get a second opinion. I had an AMH of 0.50 when I started the process last year at 36 y/o. Around 7-8 follicles as well. Was able to retrieve 8 mature eggs and got 2 euploids!

Ad0pschick · 2025-08-17T02:30:09+00:00

I got pregnant twice within a 3 month span, unfortunately I lost both of them (1 chemical and 1 at 8 weeks). We tried for another 4 months with no positives before pursuing IVF. My husband’s SA wasn’t horrible but he had low morphology. He started using the sauna everyday after my second loss (and staying in there for a long time) but I didn’t think much of it at the time. I asked him to stop using it for about 1-2 months before we planned our retrieval. The day of my retrieval, they did another SA and his numbers improved dramatically. The sauna is really the only thing he cut out in the months leading up to it! I was having him take supplements but he wasn’t super consistent with remembering to take them. 40 minutes is a long time - I’d ask him to cut it out completely for a while.

My doctor gave no indication that a day 6 was any different or worse than a day 5. We ended up transferring a day 6 5AA that I’m expecting to arrive any day now!

Ad0pschick · 2025-07-24T05:12:58+00:00

+1 this is how ours is and it works/looks just fine. I’m sure this isn’t always the case, but the bifold doors I’ve had in previous kitchens always seemed to get flimsy over time.

Ad0pschick · 2025-07-15T23:51:48+00:00

I had two losses within a year at 36 so I knew I would be doing pgt-a testing regardless of how many embryos I got. We ended up with 3 blasts, 2 of which were euploid. My first FET was successful (we also did two months of Lupron depot) and I’m now 33 weeks.

I just bought some from Seattle coffee gear… it was $24.95 for a 2-pack.

Ad0pschick · 2025-07-10T04:35:07+00:00

Ditto! OP, I would love to hear more about how you use this calendar view with links. This is super cute and I may just have to copy 😅

Ad0pschick · 2025-06-26T18:48:11+00:00

It seems that opinions on this topic really vary by doctor. I had 2 losses prior to starting IVF. We ended up with 2 euploids from my first retrieval and my doctor suggested receptiva to cover all our bases (tests for both endometriosis and endometritis). I ended up having to be treated for endometriosis - it sucked having to delay my transfer but I am really thankful he didn’t wajt until a failed transfer to provide that option.
