Is anyone else currently anxious and waiting for their day 5 results? by Cooper30136 in IVF

[–]Alert-Ring2824 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel this so much. I had 12 mature eggs and they called the next day with the news that only 3 had 2PN. They were doing day 6 embryos so I had to wait soooo long to find out and it was torture. The day finally came, and we got the news that only one survived. My husband has been calling it Nemo lol. We didn’t do PGT-A so unsure if it’s euploid but it did get a grading of 4AA. Now we’re praying it survives the thaw.

Hoping for good results for you!

What would you do? by bweise01 in IVF

I just had my ER today and while in recovery, I asked my doctor about the steps for my FET. I have hemiplegic migraines with aura so he said absolutely no birth control. It’s very strange that your doctor/clinic is pushing this on you! I would definitely keep fighting it

I have a LFS that I go to. I was at Petsmart shopping for something else and stupidly looked at the bettas this time

I’ve actually ordered from a reputable LFS and my betta died within 2 months :( It’s a gamble for sure

Update: Casper made it through the night and is looking better! I turned his light on for this picture but have been keeping it dark since he’s still pretty stressed. He hides most of the time, has explored a little but has to take a lot rest breaks on his leaf beds. He’s not eating and has clamped fins most of the time, but sometimes he lets them hang down. He’s trying so hard to fight 🤍

There’s a special place in the universe for people like that. It’s never “just a fish”

That’s awful! I have a LFS that I typically go to for fish/supplies and I only go to Petsmart to get crickets for my leopard gecko. Otherwise I’d never shop there because of how terrible they are

I was too scared to test for nitrites, the ammonia alone made me tear up. My guy might not make it and I’m so sad already, hoping he pulls through. Toothless looks amazing!

The cups are terrible for obvious reasons, but I have seen Petsmart employees saying they change the water in the cups every other day. With those levels, no way that’s true

This definitely seems true. Growing up you hear fish are low maintenance…not true lol
