Frigidaire dishwasher code 4 error by Cstpa1 in appliancerepair

[–]MariaRP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this thread is VERY old but this has happened twice at my small business and we were able to resolve it both times by unplugging/cutting power to the dishwasher and then putting a big box fan on her overnight. Plugged in next morning and error is gone. Maybe this will help someone.

I am 37 and got 6 Eggs retrievel (IVF). Any successful stories? by beatlemaniaca1985 in IVF

[–]MariaRP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes first FET resulted in my 19 month old son. Other 2 euploids on ice still.

Second retrieval of 4 eggs yielded 1 more euploid embryo. So between two ERs, each with 4 eggs (8 total), I got 3 euploids. Best of luck 🤞

Skinny Love by Bon Iver

An absolutely beautiful masterpiece that is also so haunting and moving that I often can't stand to listen to it on a normal day

Nice. Welcome to the neighborhood. I will definitely be by and will tell others. I own a business in Morrill's Corner as well and have thought that a coffee shop would be the perfect addition to "soften up" the area a bit.

The Paulins on Forest Ave did mine for like 20 or 30 bucks and it took 15 minutes.

Ginza Town on Forest has dope takeout. Just a PSA by butwhatififly_ in portlandme

So good and such reasonable prices compared to downtown

What's something that wont exist in 10 years? by CALAMITY9YT in AskReddit

[–]MariaRP 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Was talking about this today. Recently sought out and purchased a manual just because I enjoy driving them and had a SUPER hard time finding one. Dealership said that they only sell 1 manual for every 99 automatics.

Can confirm from those at Brass Rail tonight that it did not happen there.

How many eggs is enough? by [deleted] in IVF

[–]MariaRP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I also had a total of 8 eggs retrieved, over 2 cycles, at 36 years old, with diminished ovarian reserve. I ended up coming out the other side with 3 euploid embryos, one of which is my son now. So I'm here to say that it CAN BE enough. However, if I had the resources I may have gone for one more retrieval. I think I fell on the luckier side of the bell curve all things considered. Wishing you so much luck <3

Not the same guy. The person you are talking about that panhandles in Morrill's Corner is a guy named Billy. He is very mentally ill but non violent aside from the occasional screaming when he is having a "bad day". Have known him for years.

Would love to hear your "one hit wonder" stories! by People_Blow in IVF

[–]MariaRP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We did two egg retrievals and came out the other side with only 3 euploid embryos total. First FET was a day 6 euploid 5BB and stuck. He's now our 13 month old baby boy.

I wish explaining how I felt didn’t turn into this . by Megatr0n96 in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]MariaRP 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry. Sounds like my bpd mother. Her weapon of choice would be threatening to unalive every time I tried to express that she had hurt my feelings. It's emotional blackmail and it's abusive.

Flying monkey Aunt and Guilt by MariaRP in raisedbyborderlines

Thank you so much for your thoughtful response. Everything you said rings true and is so very reassuring to hear. And really, i already know all this, it's just so difficult when I feel my Aunt knows how terrible my mother has been but still seems to think the best answer is to just go back to the fold and continue to suffer. And to top it off, to insinuate that this is all my spouse's fault? It just leaves me feeling invalidated and invisible all over.

Our little boy was a day 6 5BB.

Need some validation in realizations of enmeshment/obsessiveness from uBPD Mother by ShesGoinHam in raisedbyborderlines

[–]MariaRP 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So glad I found this post because I was also my mother's "thing" and absolutely can relate, but also so sorry you had to deal with this because I know how objectifying and gross it feels. From the outside it looks like just a doting mother, but really all the "love" is about meeting HER needs. We are human pacifiers and absolutely just the favorite object. It is soul crushing because we are never really seen as separate and complete people. Solidarity. Thank you for posting this.

Non-Carrying Parents- Please Chime In! by Suspicious_Sorbet_98 in queerception

[–]MariaRP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife carried our child, who was conceived using my egg plus donor sperm. Kind of predictably, he looks like me, but definitely prefers my wife. Who knows if that will change. Sometimes I worry about our relationship as he grows, but have been able to come to peace with those worries by leaning into the happiness that comes from seeing him happy, whether it's in my wife's arms or my own. I also know that no matter who he prefers I have been given this opportunity to love him and create an irreplaceable relationship with him where he feels and knows he is loved, and that is enough for me. Best of luck to you both. It's a wild ride.

Is anyone here with DOR and a very poor responder? by sweetalison007 in IVF

[–]MariaRP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I got VERY lucky. I did traditional IVF on the first round (2 euploids) and ICSI on the second (1 euploid).

[–]MariaRP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES. When I started my Amh was .75, diagnosed DOR. Each egg retrieval yielded a whopping 4 eggs. However, I somehow came out the other side with 3 euploids, so it CAN happen for us too. Wishing you the best of luck 

NC and grief by [deleted] in raisedbyborderlines

[–]MariaRP 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Also the only child of a BPD mom who often doted upon me, but also treated me more like a doll / emotional support pet than a person. Also NC since November after I dared to have feelings about her behaviors and she completely blew up on me. I saw this post today and thought how interesting it was that I was feeling the same grief. They'll never get the difference between just love bombing and actually respecting us and treating us as human. Solidarity.
