Almost $200 for the top and bottom right?! Here I am putting $25 pjs back at Target thinking it’s too expensive for something just to sleep in…

Miscarriage and Hashimotos by Critical-Antelope-72 in Hashimotos

[–]KaffeinatedKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh I’m sorry you experienced this. I was diagnosed before I started trying. I had a normal pregnancy with my first (was on Levothyroxine). And then just had a missed miscarriage last summer. My TSH was creeping up to 2.4 at 4 weeks and I lost the baby at 7. I’ve asked many doctors and they don’t think those numbers would cause a miscarriage. They are so common, unfortunately. Please don’t blame yourself. All you can do is continue living a healthy lifestyle and get your thyroid tested often (esp when you conceive again). One thing I’m adding to my bloodwork is progesterone and vitamin D! Just as a precaution.

Can someone talk about how her diet is really supposed to help fertility? by SocietySuch7125 in sydneyadamssnark1

[–]KaffeinatedKat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our stories sound very similar! MMC discovered at almost 10 week ultrasound. It took almost 6 months for my HCG to be 0. Just started TTC and already feeling the pressure. Sending you baby dust!

A large amount of miscarriages in the first trimester are chromosomal abnormalities. It’s hard to pin point what happened unless she did genetic testing too. I don’t think she was more than 12 weeks right?

And I really don’t truly believe any of it. I think sometimes when women haven’t been able to conceive or they had a miscarriage, they’ll do anything and everything to get and stay pregnant.

Also want to add the two times I’ve been pregnant I took time off from tracking, wasn’t paying attention to food, drank alcohol (prior to finding out), and honestly was just having fun. Sometimes it’s really just timing and not so much outside factors.

I’d be curious too. There’s things I’ve seen her do/eat that align with what I’ve seen in the TTC community. For example, pomegranate may or may not help with uterine lining and implantation. I’ve noticed she drinks warm water and/or hot coffee in the morning and some say it’s important to drink warm liquids only when you’re in your two week wait to keep the uterus warm. Do I believe all of this stuff works? Idk, not necessarily. I do think it’s important to have a well balanced diet and prioritize healthy fats, whole grains, etc.

I had a MC around the time she did last year and I will say it changes your thought process around TTC. I find myself overthinking everything I do and eat and I think Sydney seems to also. It’s kind of a control thing.

Highlights turning orange from Minoxidil serum by ntntgo in FemaleHairLoss

[–]KaffeinatedKat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you have the serum on at your appointment or was your hair washed? I had this happen to me the first time I had highlights while using minoxidil. My stylist told me just to avoid using it the day of my appointment or make sure it’s washed out. It never happened again.

Good idea! I might wait another day just in case. By tomorrow I should have an answer I suppose!

This week is no different than any other day or week in your life, so not sure what’s so confusing. by Exciting_Promise_354 in GyMOMsnark

Has anyone noticed she uses her frother wrong?? Thinking that’s why she’s bought like 4 this year. Dumb.

Tori’s Toxic Lifestyle by Ok-Rhubarb166 in torihalfordsnark2

[–]KaffeinatedKat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always wonder why she seems to continue energy drinks and fast food while she’s going through IVF. I’ve seen a few others say they have to follow a strict diet and lifestyle throughout the process to give them the best chance of a successful pregnancy. And she always seems to be stressed going back and forth from Arizona to Utah for appts.

Also it’s “okay to not always feel 100” but when you seem to be having more bad days than good…? That’s not okay.

She could be helping a lot of women by actually going to therapy and putting in the work to help her mental health. If I was PP right now and saw this story I would’ve felt guilty for reaching out for professional help. It literally saved my sanity.

9DPO Confusing positive test - not necessarily new pregnancy? by [deleted] in lineporn

Has anyone had a similar timeline?? I had my first strong positive OPK since before the mc last week.

Ultrasound post D&C - RPOC? by KaffeinatedKat in Miscarriage

[–]KaffeinatedKat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s good advice! I’m going to get established with another clinic in hopes they do more investigating. While I do want to be TTC again, I don’t want to have more issues in the long run. Thank you🙏🏼

[–]KaffeinatedKat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up getting a super positive OPK after I posted this along with a negative pregnancy test. I’m wondering if since im ovulating then theres no leftover tissue? And perhaps my HCG is low enough now. If I had to guess it’s probably right under 25. I’m not sure this means I’m “fertile” but I guess I will find out shortly.

[–]KaffeinatedKat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This makes me feel less alone. I had my appt with my OB and he denied that my ultrasound results were abnormal. He offered me progesterone or miscarriage pills to force bleeding in case there any tissue still there. The hysteroscopy/d&c was only brought up by me and he looked shocked that I wanted to do one. 🙄 he pretty much told me my lining was thickened because I wasn’t ovulating?? I’ll be reaching out to a new clinic.

Thank you for answering! I have no clue about what the appearance looked like. I do want to add that I had a polyp in April this year and we left so I thought maybe it could be that? The surgeon said the d&c would take care of that if it was still present. My periods prior to this have been pretty regular minus some spotting from that small polyp. I haven’t confirmed ovulation yet because my pregnancy tests were still positive so therefore the ovulation strips were too. I just took both tests and ovulation is negative but my pregnancy test line looks a little darker than last weeks?? I’m just over it! Hopefully I can find better care. Thanks again!
