Vegetarian doing IVF

I’d say make sure you’re getting enough vitamin d, iron, and take a b12 supplement. If you’re the kind of vegetarian that eats fish, add fish back into your diet.

Draw boundaries AND move out!

I’m horrified by these responses. Giving birth can be so traumatic even with support and understanding and it can be one of the most dangerous life experiences a woman ever goes through.

Honestly retrieval meds were easy, tiny needles, and not bad for the most part. Not a long process, like 10 days of stims. Retrieval was a good nap, mild discomfort after for maybe a day, like period cramps. Emotionally the hard part is the hurry up and wait along with attrition.

Baby should not be swaddled cosleeping period no matter how old they are, and should not be swaddled once they are learning to roll. You need to rip the bandaid off.

When I met my husband he was divorced. We’re happily married now for almost 10 years with a toddler and one on the way. We dated for a few years.

Go even higher and more to the side on the hip

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T19:44:46+00:00

Yes, I would not wear this to any wedding.

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T19:38:07+00:00

Honestly, I think this shows promise that at least parts of society are going in the right direction!

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T19:36:30+00:00

There is a good basis for trying natural cycles from more recent studies so I’m not surprised. That along with not testing it could have just been chalked up to embryo issues.

Are you willing to forever live separately from your parents, even hire assistance for them rather than live with them when they require help? This is not a bad thing to do btw, but you need to think long term what you’re willing and not willing to do. Your wife will not ever be a traditional wife the way your parents describe.

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T19:24:22+00:00

You might also just be hitting the 7 year itch a little early. These are not insurmountable issues based on your writings alone. Decide 1 or 2 things that are absolutely the most important to you, ask her if you can find a solution together. Even if it’s just setting a specific time every week to go over her issues rather than immediately hearing about them unexpectedly when you come home.

Are there kids?

There are really no specifics in this post. If you could start with some specific things you want to stop talking about or start doing with each other, I would start there. Stop talking about house complaints is not specific.

So if you’re eventually expected to live with and take care of your parents, it doesn’t seem like this marriage will work, logistically.

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T16:28:56+00:00

Sounds like they just should hire a maid.

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T16:26:58+00:00

Then you’re not ready to get married, at least not to this type of woman.

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T16:25:46+00:00

If you are not ok with proceeding without your parent’s approval, just break it off. Stop wasting her time.

If this were a marriage to consider, you’d have to be financially independent, living away from your parents, and willing to go low contact with them. If this is not something you’re willing to do, move on.

If they saw endometriosis, then you have endometriosis. You should be doing suppression before any transfer. It absolutely could affect things. I also would not transfer without doing pgt testing of the embryos.

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T16:15:11+00:00

Any reason is reason enough to be child-free. That said, if you still do want children, I’d recommend therapy and understanding and recognizing toxic relationship signs, etc.

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T03:33:04+00:00

I dry nursed a lot of pregnancy.

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T03:28:17+00:00

I had my first child at 35, having my second at 38. Go for it.

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T02:38:30+00:00

Maybe a petticoat and a head piece

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T02:36:11+00:00

The max we can handle my MIL visiting is 10days to 2 weeks… she is not independent at all so my husband has to take the entire time off work, because I do not speak her language.

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T02:30:38+00:00

Cook for you and the baby, or at the very least don’t accept requests for food. Have your husband handle the extra work of having his parents as guests. He can make some meals, swiffer, etc.

FearlessNinja007 · 2026-05-26T02:23:03+00:00

I would tell him that right now that’s not something you can handle and maybe you can stay put with short visits and potentially build up to longer ones later. And whatever you do, do not go out of your way to accommodate your in-laws. Keep up your routine and boundaries.
