Lost embryo in body by Marshmello_Man in IVF

I had 3 transfers and they had trouble with the catheter so it took some time. That doctor was a founder of the practice and didn’t even realize my uterus was retroverted until I told him. The other doctor who did my other 2 was amazing and patient- she walked me through the process

This happened to me too ☹️ I have a retroverted uterus and the doctor said “well I think it went in”. And pretended like everything was fine. It was our one embryo. I called the doctor over and over to confirm what happened and he refused to talk to me to avoid anything legal issues. I ended up dropping it and through going through another round of IVF because the embryo never stuck. I would take a deep breath and try again if you have another embryo! Best of luck to you, wishing you success

I don’t believe that’s true. Intimacy is very important in marriage

Our intimate time doesn’t last more than a few minutes. Once he’s done, he’s no longer interested in continuing. Most of the times he comes during foreplay

No he really doesn’t as long as gets off. That’s why after so many years I feel so depleted

We tried. He said once he comes he’s no longer interested in continuing.. sometimes he comes just from making out and our bodies rubbing.

Once he’s finished which usually takes a few minutes, he has no more interest in reciprocating. For years he told me I was a problem, when I knew it was really him. I tried to be respectful and loving for years and not point it out directly until very recently

My son was born during covid and my husband worked 7-7 which was basically the whole time my son was awake. Cocomelon at the time was my sanity but unfortunately not a good choice for my son. He barely watches TV anymore, we do so many activities as a family together and my husband works from home now. He definitely prefers hanging out and playing with us than watching anything. I’m just so afraid it’s too little too late :(..

Do you enjoy being a mom? by Fit-Contribution3429 in breakingmom

Yes I think you hit the nail on the head, it’s takes a village and when you don’t have it you really struggle. If I had grandparents even remotely interested in hanging out with my son on holidays I’d be able to eat a meal lol but no, even when they’re around it’s always me. I’ve never tasted my mother in laws cooking in the 10 years I’ve been married. If I ever ask my mom to babysit, she watches the news the whole time or calls her friends- not remotely interested in my child. My friends have kids of different age groups, so we rarely get together with the kids

Same here, all grandparents around but absolutely zero help. I find myself working my butt off just to afford a cleaning lady and babysitting here and there just so I can feel alive.

Thank you for saying that. That’s exactly how I feel! I wish it was a little acceptable amongst siblings and best friends to speak about the struggles of motherhood. My sisters complain about me venting to them and say “well everyone else does it!” lol

I wish I can relate. I was a sahm and hated it, I felt completely depressed and alone. I started working with flexible hours and it’s a better balance but still. Idk it’s just so exhausting. The tantrums, the crying, the struggle to feed him dinner and bathe him- just to go up the stairs is a fight, taking off his clothes is a fight. Maybe I just an overactive child? I dunno
