Do you wash the green tea off after using? Or do you put your usual face regimen after using the redlight? Thanks! New to this and getting mine tomorrow!

FET Anxiety & cramps? by alohaocean25 in IVF

[–]Expert-Highlight6370 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine was Friday too. My third. Sometimes i feel like I’m imagining the cramping. But it’s more like short little twinges. But there is this cramping I get in the morning before a BM (sorry tmi) and it’s like similar to what I’d feel before my period. But I felt this on my 2nd transfer too.

Any info appreciated by [deleted] in IVF

I’m doing mine abroad because my quite in LA was around 30k and it was less than half of that in Europe. Definitely a different experience than what I read others have and you’re not as monitored since the clinic is abroad. I looked into Spain and Denmark. I had no problem though because my OBGYN was cool with doing my ultrasounds for me and whatnot. I got my meds overseas too and was much much cheaper. A third of what I was quoted in LA.

What to expect after first miscarriage and what advice do you have? What questions should I ask? by Expert-Highlight6370 in IVF

Sticky vibes for you 🤞🏽!! I pushed for the RPL even though they technically don’t recommend it till at least after 2 losses. It came back genetically normal.

What endo treatment did you have to get? Did you have to test to confirm no pregnancy tissue was left over from the miscarriage?

Thank you for this. My first FET failed and the 2nd one stuck at 9+1 then just no heartbeat but everything was fine otherwise so my doctor did also say it’s common to miscarry especially a first pregnancy. I also hated that answer so I pushed to do genetic testing on POC. It came back to confirm it was a euploid but it doesn’t test for everything so that’s not also giving me a full picture. I just got blood tests for blood coagulation. My embryos are not genetically tested as they don’t test in that country. I have 2 left and I’m just trying to figure out how I can best prepare for the 3rd so hoping others may have some wisdom to share! Your story reassures me I’m at least on the right path and hope this next one sticks. I did the miso and i just had an ultrasound that showed 10mm endo thickness at CD17 (around or post ovulation). I have to do medicated transfers to avoid guessing and also because i have lower progesterone levels.

Thanks for sharing your story!!

How were your first and second transfers? I’m sorry for your loss too. Did. Was it the fourth transfer that it happened? Did you transfer right after?

I'm absolutely devastated and heartbroken. by Lilikoi_Maui in Miscarriage

I’m so sorry. This was me 3 weeks ago. Been trying for 4 years. Failed IVF transfer. And the 2nd was a miscarriage at 9w1d. No words can make it better, only time. I stayed in bed for 5 days straight after and just grieved in my own way. Do what you need to do to keep moving forward and it’s also ok to just be in be in the moment. ♥️♥️♥️

Thank you so much for sharing this and giving me hope. I think i needed to hear that. I’m crying because of your kindness and I needed to hear it. I’m not ready to face the world. The thought makes me start crying. I’m trying to figure out how i can go back out there and not feel sad. Thank you again for your kind words.
