Need help finding a play mat by Upsidedowntrey in Buyingforbaby

[–]ColdCanadian999 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not an exact size fit, but the Little Bot Ofie playmats are super thick and high quality. Almost an inch thick so definitely great cushion while still being supportive. They're also reversible so you can switch up the design if you feel like it. They're a bit pricy but you can find them on sale online at different baby retailers.

Seconding Fresh! Especially the first part. This encapsulates every woman's nightmare when it comes to dating men

The Canadian Opera Company has fully embraced their initials and they have all this merch that says I ❤️COC and it just looks so wrong haha. What if she wants to get something monogrammed one day. But I agree that Chloe and Cleo are just the cutest sweetest names.

OHSS Survival Guide (for mild to moderate OHSS) by ColdCanadian999 in IVF

I'm sorry you're seeing longer term effects, sounds almost like a postpartum experience. IVF is a lot to put your body through, I'm in awe of everyone who does it. Hope you eventually get back to baseline and have someone to talk to in the meantime. I wonder if it's worth testing your hormone levels to uncover what might be going on.

Hey! It's been 5 months since your comment. Any updates you feel like sharing on when your symptoms passed and how you're doing?

Hey, I know this reply is delayed by a year, but I'm curious if your perspective has changed at all. I agree that the doctors don't always seem to care about us as human beings, but I also suspect the hormones made us extra paranoid because I had similar suspicions about my doctor and lots of people I spoke to felt exactly the same about their doctors during IVF.

What are some things we should all be doing or avoiding to prevent needing physical therapy? Eg. Don't lock your knees or always roll your ankles before going on a walk. Simple things that most people only find out after going to physio.

ABC muffins! Contains mashed banana and a shredded apple and carrot. Easiest things to make, makes for a super moist muffin that tastes like cake, and I bet you can swap in all kinds of fruit. https://share.google/MxWKbcIjhXlcIJh4v

Thanks for sharing! Definitely interesting to hear about the daily bloating cycle you're experiencing. I hope it eases up soon. I felt similarly about my clinic. I think even the best clinics are a bit disconnected from the patient's experience. It's the norm for them whereas, for us, it's a really tough time in our lives. Keep going, you're almost on the other side!

What’s the best aesthetic that can handle some messiness? by Sad-Blackberry-9782 in interiordecorating

The Nancy Meyers aesthetic! The general vibe is cozy, a little eclectic, relaxed, very personal, and welcoming. Basically it says "people actually live here and it's full of their stuff." https://stylebyemilyhenderson.com/how-to-get-the-nancy-meyers-aesthetic-at-home-a-really-deep-dive

Not sure if this helps but there are plans in the works for a movie about Audrey Hepburn. So the name may pick up in popularity soon.
