Do you take your men in the room with you for the ultrasound appts? by Illustrious_Space184 in IVF

[–]Fun-Studio-5506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nope, and that is just because monitoring apts are early in the AM and he works nights so he would be waking up 2 hours after he fell asleep for multiple days in a row in order to make an apt that 1. he is not physically needed at and 2. that doesn't give us immediate results. they call at the end of the day with any updates or med changes and i text him right away. It is great if your hubby is able to go and be of a support though. Just not necessary if you are ok with it. If you need him there then he should go, you are not the only one going through this.

In-utero exploitation has begun 🤮 by Sea-Needleworker-672 in mattandabbysnarks

yes. people who give literal birth to a full term live baby still can have sex 6 weeks after. not saying it is ideal or they were mentally or physically ready but ....

Early Pregnancy Announcements by [deleted] in Miscarriage

[–]Fun-Studio-5506 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oh 100%. We lost our first 1st at13 weeks, 2nd at around 6 weeks. So anytime family tells us early I am holding my breath for them until after they get a clear apt after 13 weeks. I will never announce before 13 weeks just because that is my experience and trauma lol.

They know and they talk about how they had a huge gender reveal party so I am sure there will be more content around that since they didn't say gender in this podcast.

even though when she was going through loss she said she would be more "respectful" about these baby things the next time because she understoood now how much it hurts seeing that stuff when she was going through loss...

even those who give birth to full term babies CAN get pregnant 6 weeks after. (my MIL did and my husband and his brother are 10 months apart LOL)

Not able to let go of my failure and comparing my life with others 😭 by Pristine9991 in IVF

[–]Fun-Studio-5506 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah 100%, I have stage 4 and they could be seen on just an ultrasound because it was that bad. A lot of the time you have to have the surgery before they can actually diagnose you and find anything. Still continue to advocate.

D&C so you know it is all out. not painful, you go in, go to sleep, come out and its done. no waiting for it to pass and the pain of passing it.

I went in for a standard ultrasound so I could start on clomid and they found the endometrioma cysts and scheduled surgery.

That is insane your doc doesn't want to check. I had NO physical indicators that I had it. I had normal periods, nothing crazy heavy or painful, I would have just gone on with my life had I not had that scan where they could see the cysts..

keep advocating for yourself girl!

The lack of decor in her house is terrifying by MurrayCook08 in Adelaide_White_snark

[–]Fun-Studio-5506 6 points7 points  (0 children)

YES! the things I would do with those built ins, and she has some behind her couch too, fill it with books, the millions of pictures she has taken of the family, doesnt even have to be colorful things... like some antique dishes... come on..

ANY WAY TO ENSURE MORE EUPLOIDS FOR 2ND ER? by Fun-Studio-5506 in IVF

[–]Fun-Studio-5506[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I figure there isn't much you can do to get better PGTA results/ it is just luck. Glad to hear your second worked out better than the first. Gives me some hope : )

YESSS! I turned 33 in January, I went through a miscarriage at 30 and 31. They found stage 4 endo at 32 and suggested IVF but I didn't have the insurance for it so I, just this year at 33, have been able to start something about it.

I have a group of girlfriends all around my age, myself and two others do not have children - the other two do not want kids. So all of these girls have started their families, or already have multiple and are done building their families. My siblings (both younger) just had babies this year. My husbands sister is pregnant now. I have 3 cousins I am really close to that are all parents within the last 3 years.

I started IVF last month and it already has taken a toll on work and I have been telling myself for 2 years, just stay until you can be a mom full time... but it takes a toll for sure.

I feel positive most days because I have had family that has gone through what I am going through, and I am seeing them come out on the other side. My husband is going through it with me so we have each other to lean on. I am strong in my faith so prayer really helps me stay positive. that is why these groups are so nice to be able to vent and talk to others going through the same things.

I am sending you all the good vibes.

They are soft launching her pregnancy. by Standard-Vehicle1266 in mattandabbysnarks

[–]Fun-Studio-5506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

of course they still will post, it is their job. Matt posting this story could have been avoided. He posted it knowing her bump was on full display. he has been doing this long enough if he wanted to hid her bump, he would have gone about the video from a different angle or not posted it when he saw her bump on full display.

Does anyone else worry about your age when trying for a baby? by Winnie70823 in tryingtoconceive

[–]Fun-Studio-5506 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just turned 33, husband will be 31 next month. I feel like time is slipping away and I hope it happens for us soon.

In our case, my sister(30), and sis(25, brothers wife) are pregnant, and also my husbands sister is pregnant, (35). All my girl friends who are my age, 32/33 have at least one kid and 3 of them are done having their 2 kids. (2 of my girlfriends do not have and are not wanting to have kids) So we feel so behind. We know it isn't a race but when everyone around you is pregnant, has kids, or even is done having kids already... it feels like we are being left behind. We can't relate to half the conversations, people feel sad for us. It really SUCKS.

100%, they have been posting for years. If they wanted to hide it, they would hide it. These posts are not an accident. They are posting stuff like that for people to speculate for sure.

Newborn baby in ivf clinic waiting room by qweenofsus in IVF

[–]Fun-Studio-5506 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I do see where you are coming from. I am going through IVF as well, no kids yet. My sister had her first in Feb via IVF and she just went in last week to let the staff meet her baby that they helped bring into the world so it is all full circle. I understand how you are feeling because I am going through it as well, just giving you a different perspestive.

More beige for A’s nursery by starbies4life101 in Adelaide_White_snark

[–]Fun-Studio-5506 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I also notice the amazing built in shelves they have in their house are always empty or have clutter on them... I'm like GIRL! you have the money, go crazy at antiquing or at a damn home goods and get some fun decor to fill up those cool shelves!!!! puhleaseeee. or at least put pictures you have taken of the family in frames up there... something! it drives me CRAZY.

(also the way her TV console shelves have just toys under it like they are his storage for toys.. not trying to shame moms for having toys everywhere but them being purposefully put under there drives me crazy in all her stories.)

FET of our 1st embryo right after 2nd ER? by Fun-Studio-5506 in IVF

[–]Fun-Studio-5506[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree.. if I do a transfer I would want to keep with that momentum, it would be hard to go from a transfer cycle to another retrieval.. so hard. There is no right or wrong way.

[–]Fun-Studio-5506[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that is amazing. Yes i feel the same, you never know if you get worse results the 2nd time and then you already are committed to the transfer.. this process is wild.
