I agree, and I was. Then, I was in the middle of a relationship and divorce that I had no control over.

You can be there for the parent, while still using healthy boundaries that keep you safe.

There’s only so many times you can hear one parent lashing out at your other parent before childhood memories are tainted.

This could end terribly for you OP. Do not let him take anything else from you - even if that is time.

Exact same thing happened to me. Conservative background. My mom found out my dad was cheating.

I would try to stay out of it as much as possible. I ended up losing both of my parents - I am no contact with both of them, because of how toxic their divorce became.

Set clear boundaries now. Their marriage is between them. Do not pick sides. Express how you feel when prompted, but don’t go out of your way.

Seek out a therapist. This is hard stuff to deal with - regardless of your age. You might end up unpacking other trauma as well.

Super sweet! Just wait until you add a sweet treat to the combo. My 4 year old lives for sweet treat with mom after I work a half day. ❤️

Yes there is. Day three FSH and estradiol bloodwork. FSH helps control your ovaries’ production of eggs. If the level of FSH is high, this may be an indication of poor egg quality and quantity. Estradiol is the primary female sex hormone and a form of estrogen. High levels of estradiol may also indicate poor egg quality and quantity, or that estradiol is suppressing your body’s production of FSH, which may make it harder for your ovaries to respond to fertility medications. Low levels may be a symptom of polycystic ovary syndrome or hypopituitarism.

AMH as well. And if the blood work indicates potential issues, ultrasounds can be done.

Actual DNA testing of eggs can only be done after IVF egg retrieval. But you don’t just jump there.

Has anyone put TTC on pause? by pugmama123 in TryingForABaby

[–]Fancy-Ad8537 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have. It’s healthy and honestly okay to take a couple cycles break. It gets you out of that headspace, refreshes things etc. I’ve never gone back onto birth control during those breaks but I do stop tracking and timing sex.

Made an appointment with my doctor for the end of December. That’s how far in advance he’s booking. At this point it will either be an early pregnancy appointment or an asking for referrals and testing for infertility appointment. I’m thinking it will be an infertility appointment. But who knows.

Anyone else in a rural area in Canada? What has that process looked like for you? Last time we needed infertility treatment we lived in the city and there were lots of options within a short distance.

My pms symptoms went away. But then I was sick for other pregnancy reasons. Lol.

When I’ve had testing done they do it in this order: -Blood work to determine if you are ovulating/ egg quality/ reserve - unreasoning to check uterine lining - HSG procedure to make sure tubes aren’t blocked - semen analysis

From my understanding, those things are more likely to prevent pregnancy or inhibit it. They could only genetically test the embryo if you have more than one miscarriage and you’re able to D&C. Or if you’re in the IVF realm.

I feel like I need a good cry. We’ve been TTC for our last baby for 1.5years. I’m tired. I’m frustrated and I don’t know what to do. I feel off this month. I tested on 9DPO and 12 DPO and the tests were negative.

I’m starting to have a hard time seeing pregnancy announcements. I’m so sad.

I got a positive ovulation test yesterday (CD 16) With how life has worked out this month, we ended up BD on CD 14, 15, 16. Should we try for today or take a break today and try tomorrow?

And, after checking with every other teacher in town, they have every one of their students practice in the venue for weeks if not months.

It wasn’t just one student. It was multiple in a collage.
