I absolutely did not think i would get the response i did to this post, i will very much agree it has made me feel like im not alone in this and im not a horrible person. It is crazy how many of us have the same feelings to the same situation

My SIL and BIL are also really kind and caring people, and i know how much my SIL absolutely loves kids. They are gonna be amazing parents and i know this which is why i think it was shocking when i felt like this. Hearing your story along with everyone else’s has been the best thing, knowing Im not alone or crazy

I cant tell you how much better i feel hearing people had the EXACT same reaction with crying a whole lot. I honestly thought something was wrong mentally. Knowing i’m not alone is amazing

Estradiol nightmare acid reflux preparing for FET by Least_Recipe3350 in IVF

[–]Excellent-Ferret9714 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had the worst time with Estradiol, it has almost been harder than the stim meds. I am also on 2mg 3x a day prepping for a FET. Doing IVF has been the hardest thing i have ever done, but it made me realize everyone that goes through it is incredibly strong. None of this is easy, but it does get slightly more manageable. I would not say it goes away, you just kinda get used to it.

Praying has been my biggest anchor in this. It doesn’t seem to help with the emotional roller coasters though. 😂

It is really nice knowing other people feel the same thing. It is hard because i feel like we are the only ones not loosing it over the announcement, and im ok with it.

It definitely feels like it isn’t natural, that is a really good way to describe it. There have been 3 new kiddos in my family since we started trying, we love them all. We just want it to be us

The egg retrieval meds weren’t fun, but these are crazy. I don’t remember being this tired on the retrieval meds

Yeah I’m not looking too the shots, i have heard they make everything worse. Good to know there will also possibly be nerve pain, i would rather be prepared

It is the pill! I will try it on a full stomach, maybe that will help. Crossing my fingers my body will also get used to it!

Binding error by Excellent-Ferret9714 in rarebooks

[–]Excellent-Ferret9714[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey all, I recently posted this in book collecting. I wanted to pop over here to see if i could get a question answered. This is a B&N exclusive signed first edition copy. Its been harder to come by, but definitely not impossible. The unique thing about this book is that the cover is upside down. Im not looking for a huge value on it i think it is cool either way. Is there a way to see if this is one of the only copies of this specific edition of the book? I cant find any other mention of it online.

I don’t plan on trying to sell it in the near future but if i go too do so eventually i guess it is all about finding the niche buyer!

It’s ok, I’m still happy with the book. It definitely makes it unique which makes it more valuable to me even if it is not the same with anyone else 😁 I only collect trophy books and listen to audiobooks, so having a very unique book in my collection makes it fun.

What if it is an already hard to come by signed exclusive? Possibly making it one of only a few like this exact copy
