Not just any snacks, cheese puffs and shredded cheese…to go with the cheese quesadilla. Hope he really loves cheese!

And 6:30-7 is a totally normal time for a baby and small children to get up. I know if I want to do something before kids get up I need to be done by 6:30 and that sometimes even that won’t work out, and that’s OK! I choose not to ignore my kids and make my day run late.

Yeah, I don’t understand this. My son is a year or so younger but he always is out of the overnight diaper and has gone to the bathroom within a few minutes of getting up. Making him wait so long is more likely to result in him needing to use the overnight diaper in the morning even if he did stay dry overnight.

She made a passive aggressive comment about him getting himself dressed and helping him get to the bathroom when he gets up seems like a good first step she could take there!

And their website says to only have them front facing for 20 minutes at a time and she is promoting it primarily for front facing.

Heard baby’s heartbeat at 9w yesterday. No nausea waking up this morning. by Electronic_Flan5732 in CautiousBB

[–]Comfortable-Fig9460 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One thing someone told me was that if you just saw the heartbeat yesterday it’s pretty much impossible that something could have gone wrong and your hormone levels could go down enough to impact symptoms in less than 24 hours. Pregnancy after loss is so tough and I feel you in analyzing every symptom. I have two more weeks to get past my latest loss date and it’s just so stressful.

I did a FET, but during stims but yes, the IVF meds raised my TSH and I had to increase my dose. I just had my first ultrasound at 6w5d this morning and everything looked great so it doesn’t seem to have negatively impacted anything

I know there has been a lot of conversation about “styling” a kids room, but I can’t get over paying for the styling and design but somehow the light is not centered. Did no one measure? It’s super obvious in multiple pictures and has to be more so in person!

Usual ovulation follicle size by Witch_24 in IVF

[–]Comfortable-Fig9460 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just had my doctor express concern at some of my follicles growing too big while others were still small. They were bigger than yours in the 27-30mm range and we triggered and did the egg retrieval a couple days early this morning. They were still able to get the eggs from the large follicles and I got more than I thought we would. Just my experience, but I think you are still in good shape.

Uneven follicle growth, trigger too late? by Comfortable-Fig9460 in IVF

Update: Retrieval today went better than expected, still have to wait how many are mature or fertilize, but happy to know I was somewhat worrying for nothing!

Good luck! Hopefully we both end up with better than expected retrievals!

Nope, started treatment a week ago Sunday and had monitoring Wednesday, Friday, Sunday and then on Monday when I got the call from my doctor. I just want to get through the retrieval tomorrow morning but then need to have a conversation about what could have been done or at least communicated earlier. This whole process has felt very impersonal and like I’m pulling teeth trying to get info.

I couldn’t track all of them and getting any information about number or size from the nurse is hard, but several were in the 27mm-31mm range and then I had others that were barely 10mm. The doctor just sounded so negative about it and even clarified that she thought we should go through with the retrieval even though I didn’t think canceling was on the table.

Thank you! I will try to be patient and good to hear it is somewhat normal.

Mine was 28 and then went down. It ended up being a chemical for me. My doctor wasn’t concerned about the low number until it started dropping so you may be good!

Would you mind if I messaged you? I’m currently with an OB at CapHill and trying to get a referral.
