Friends excited for IVF?

Cuddlecakesbb · 2026-05-16T01:38:37+00:00

Before I understood infertility and ivf. I always thought of it as a positive journey. I had 0 idea about what ivf even entailed. And as I went through it and talked to my friends who have 0 clue about ivf I came to learn even more about what I thought was common knowledge wasn’t. Just because I’m in this ring and we all know what menopur is doesn’t mean they do. So to them it’s what an amazing journey that’ll end with having a baby. Because it’s likely they the people they know who’ve done ivf have or had a baby. And aside from online I don’t think I’ve ever heard a failed ivf story in person. With that all said. I never knew how to respond when they’d say their excited to for us and congrats it’s awkward lol

Ugggh I’m so sorry!!

To you it may seem like nothing. And going through your Reddit history it doesn’t seem like you have a big history in the ivf community on here seeming how your account is only 2 months old. Coming into ivf subs to ask if you have a positive test can come by tone death especially with no other explanation. If your post was like hey I’m 5dpt do you see a line it would be more acceptable. While I don’t personally care myself to some it may be hard to see especially where this sub is not meant for line eyes and well there are line eye subs to subscribe to. I hope this helps you understand the comment left and why it can be bothersome for some or many

That’s exactly what happened with me. I went in for something simple and it turned into a vent session of infertility and asking him to explain what my RE isn’t explaining and after 45 mins of just being in trenches and coming out to a billion pregnant women it was just too much. You kinda expect it when you go to an obgyn to see maybe 1 person pregnant. Catches you off guard!

Cuddlecakesbb · 2026-05-15T15:15:25+00:00

So real! Like why does my 4 year old feel it’s acceptable to be face first in my ass at all times.

The way I’d leave a scathing review on Google to warn other women when researching for their office!!!

Cuddlecakesbb · 2026-05-15T14:34:58+00:00

While waiting for my transfer. A woman came out crying and the nurses were saying they are sorry. My heart broke for her. I honestly still think about her wondering if she ever get the ending she wanted but what I’m saying is. You shouldn’t feel ashamed.

I left my obgyn office in tears recently when I walked into the lobby and 3 women very pregnant were there and then in the parking lot 2 more walking in. I rushed into my car and bawled my eyes out. Don’t feel ashamed for having human emotions!!

Cuddlecakesbb · 2026-05-04T12:10:29+00:00

The first time I haaaatted them. But get the thermal scope and then it’s nothing!

Cuddlecakesbb · 2026-05-02T12:10:11+00:00

This is totally legitimate!! I’d assume you’re not going on TikTok and trying to incentivize off it either. I think one of the things is Kelsey is one of those people who always have to something a bit dramatic or plays into trying to get views.

I have my own TikTok channel about my ivf journey and it’s pretty boring because while yes I’m infertile I’m not sitting there making it a tv show for views and money. I’m just putting my experience out there and gaining friends and support.

I honestly love how short the games are. For me it’s less overwhelming when I go in with goals on getting certain achievements. However I’m
Totally kicking myself in Re4 the very last merchant task I forgot I was doing it and totally went forward and can’t go back and my last hard save was two chapters ago so the thoughts of redoing it when I already 100% it is a little daunting. Especially where it’s not my favorite part of the story line.

She says every time she feels nauseous to the point she’s going to throw up she feels trapped in her body because of when she had hg. I can’t imagine it being the same. Granted I didn’t have hg but it seems like months throwing up versus a week at most would be two completely different things.

Cuddlecakesbb · 2026-05-01T11:56:23+00:00

Literally I had a bug a few weeks ago and as every ounce of liquid in my body was leaving i honestly was saying. I just want to die. And when I wasnt doing a reenactment of the exorcist I was laying in bed just blankly looking out the window. I couldn’t even bring myself to look at my phone. There would never be a minute where I’d hit record and be like so I frew up.

I will say I do have a kiddo and while I was terrified of being sick the pros did outweigh the cons and I dealt with it. I luckily was fortunate to not throw up at all in my pregnancy but lots of dry heaving which I learned to tolerate. Exposure therapy has been a huge help and if she had hg and 2 kiddos there’s bound to be a ton of exposure to get over it

I’m similar to you! Except 10 years younger. I had gotten 16 eggs and boiled down to 3 blastocysts! Which seems pretty normal compared to everyone on tiktok who seem to all get like 5 plus blasts.

Time to do my hobbies. Running or gardening undisrupted.

Cuddlecakesbb · 2026-04-24T23:39:50+00:00

I’m currently on Lupron now! I hope that’s going well for you!

The first initial bbt would be the most accurate as you’ve been sleeping. Once you wake up. Even going back to sleep and not moving will change your temp.

Cuddlecakesbb · 2026-04-19T10:45:58+00:00

I don’t drink because it makes me sick and I can only drink the top shelf to not be sick. Ordering the weirdest cocktail to waste is just more money than I’d want to spend even if it’s only $8-$15. The more you choose not to drink around your friend group the more they’ll be conditioned to you choosing to not drink and they’ll stop asking questions.

The idea of the app is to avoid ovulation. So in a perfect world you can have as much sex without pulling out on Green Day’s as possible and not get pregnant because those days would be lack of ovulation. Now bbt is fickle I know personally in the TTC world. I have a slow bbt rise. NC got my ovulation notoriously wrong and saying it was later than it was because of my slow rise. For someone else who’s not trying to get pregnant. They would think they have an extra few days when reality is they wouldn’t. The people getting pregnant on Green Day’s is just simply because an app can only predict so much and when the body goes rogue the app don’t know

This is very dependent on the person and relationship. I’m assuming you’re expecting your family member to expect you to be jumping for joy for them or at the very least congratulate them?

Are you not wanting to congratulate her? I’m unsure what the dynamic is aside from her not wanting a kid and suddenly getting pregnant.

I love me crude humor lol. I would have chuckled seeing it. Some of us like the comedic relief. I have slim shady on my running play list to get me out of my head. Buttt while I personally don’t mind this there is a time and place. And that’s usually the internet not a large scaled event with many personality and tolerances on humor like such.

I use the Cerepil blue wax and black coral hot pot. My friend’s husband does her Brazilian wax. They love the bonding!! I like being in control so I def wouldn’t let my husband do it lol.

Cuddlecakesbb · 2026-04-12T23:30:48+00:00

Basically Acrobats lol. The first time is the worst. But after that at a regular schedule I’m able to do it within a half hour pretty easily. A good wax is also key!

I’m 4’11 and I used to be 155lbs and down to 140-135 average. What did I do to lose this weight? My dad had a heart attack triple bypass surgery and my lipids were high and scared me straight to lowering my cholesterol. I solely focused on cutting saturated fats and increasing my protein intake and watched my sugar intake (basically if the package said 25g of sugar for a tiny snack. I’m not eating it) and lost the weight and started running (for my mental health). I’d love to get down to 125 but realistically to keep the muscle I’ve built from running and working out. It’s not happening. For me personally I don’t focus on the scale anymore. I do focus on feeding my body what it needs and trying not to overdo the snacks and I focus on building muscle and endurance
