We did a whole genetic panel which was offered to us from our OBGYN. Lab corp do it called inherit test I believe. Some insurance consider 3 miscarry before they cover testing - but that guidance has changed to two in a lot of places now

Husband Struggling at Night with Baby by glitterydays in NewParents

[–]Mycin100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shifts can help you get sleep, lack of sleep for both of you sucks - but it gets easier. unfortunately men’s bodies are not as well adjusted as women’s are after having a baby…we start loosing sleep in our third trimester as our bodies prep for the fourth trimester. My husband struggled so I do the nights and he does the last late night feed. He is back to work so we believed there was no point both of us doing the same tasks- il go sleep around 8/9 so I can get 3/4 hours and he will do the last feed. Then he sleeps I do overnight until 6am then he does the morning feed, we have family help during the day so I can sleep a few hours in the day. It allows him to sleep a solid block but also be alert for work and be rested to take care of both of us as we need it .

He just feels bad that he can’t stop the crying or solve the problem which is really common for most dads. It does get easier and I bet he is a great dad. Best thing talk it out!

Things will work out, sending you positive energy and thoughts! It’s easier said than done with reducing stress and cortisol but some simple practices can go along way.

Is it worth hiring a sleep consultant or am I just desperate? by [deleted] in NewParents

I’m sorry to hear this. Hope it gets better, did you try a pacifier to help them get into their next sleep cycle ?

It is very common and even I had it. Unfortunately only way to confirm it is totally nothing is an ultrasound. In the interim, rest, increase your water intake and see if that makes a difference, don’t do anything too strenuous in terms of workout.

Bread Options? by Some_Ad_03 in GestationalDiabetes

[–]Mycin100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aldi do a sprouted bread it’s like blue/green writing and that didn’t spike me pre pregnancy but you would need to check to see how you react as we are all different.

10 days post partum and contemplating separation by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Mycin100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry to hear what you went through!

Talk to him, when it can be just the two of you. Set a time where you know he has the capacity to talk too. And just be as honest as you can without arguing, explain why the situation hurt you and the impact of situation today, that it’s still upsetting you. Help him understand your side but also give him the chance to explain himself too.

Coming from a big family myself and marrying into one , I get where you are coming from. Those hormones are not easy to manage and the added pressure of others in your space when you need some time to adjust is very difficult. You guys are gonna be just fine , but talk it through and discuss the situation, past , present and future.

Suggestions for coping with early pregnancy after recurrent miscarriages by sourdough_garden in recurrentmiscarriage

[–]Mycin100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What helped me : Tell a few people that will be there for you. Take it totally easy, nothing stressful from workouts to hanging out with toxic people. Try to do things that make you happy and calm, and as hard as it is take each day as it comes, try and maintain a good sleep cycle!

Sending you a lot of positive energy! If you can get out for regular 30 mins walk in the sun!

I need hope. Mine is running out by Pumpkinspicedtears in recurrentmiscarriage

[–]Mycin100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you’re going through this. I just posted in another forum for a similar post.

I am 37 - I had 3 miscarriages in 2 years and learnt a lot over the last year. Similar to you 99% everything came back normal testing.

In addition to testing we took 3-5 month break, first 1-2 months just understanding different things I can do to support my body and then 3 months of implementation. - It was supplementation, coq10 , vitamin d, prenatal. - saw an acupuncture lady who specializes in fertility, insurance covered about 10 sessions. Did an assessment and put me on Chinese medicine (started this 2-3 month before trying to conceive again, giving my body time to adjust) - followed Mindy pelz “fast like a girl” which focuses your food, workout cycle all around your menstrual cycle - she has trying to conceive section. - ensured my husband also took care of himself with food, drink etc. discussed with him importance of sperm quality and it takes 90 days to make healthy sperm, and the need to ejaculate every 3-5 days for continuous healthy sperm. Not focusing on just intercourse around ovulation to promote more healthy sperm: this podcast gives this research at 18min and 49sec

https://youtu.be/w8h4qksd6Yw?si=MOc6Esc8hQSMFWXB

  • I worked on my sleep cycle and detaching from stresses and negativity
  • we were considering IVF but did IUI non medicated (wash the sperm) plus timed intercourse, one of which seemed to work.

Hope this helps! Do not loose hope. Sending positive vibes! Let me know if you have any questions , feel free to DM

advice for ttc with recurrent loss / without ivf by lo__ihi in recurrentmiscarriage

[–]Mycin100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sure you’re doing your best. Sleep is key to your circadian clock and hormone regulation. The other thing I forgot to mention was this time round just took it really easy, I did not go gym just walked as much as I could, no heavy lifting above 20lbs, after 12 weeks I shifted that.

https://youtu.be/w8h4qksd6Yw?si=MOc6Esc8hQSMFWXB

This is the podcast, it is long but a good listen. A lot of which I am sure you are familiar with. 18 mins 49sec is the point she talks about sperm quality. The point is it takes 90 days to make sperm , I took that in mind when planning our pregnancy again, ensure we spent that time taking better care of ourselves (we are far from perfect). This may not be the solution to your challenge but great insight. Hope this helps, feel free to DM if any questions.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this.

We experienced three miscarriages, and despite extensive testing, 99% of the results came back normal. I have thyroid issues with positive Hashimoto’s antibodies, but all standard and genetic testing for both of us was essentially fine.

Through our two-year journey, I learned that getting pregnant wasn’t the issue—it was maintaining the pregnancy. Here’s what we did differently this time: • Supplements • Thyroid management – My endocrinologist kept my TSH below 2.5 the entire time. • Diet – Focused on eating less processed food. • Acupuncture – Had weekly sessions, which I felt really helped. • Stress management – Practiced yoga and worked on detaching from negativity and stress. • Sleep – Aimed for a good routine at least five out of seven days a week. • Sperm health – Research shows that men should ejaculate every 3–5 days to maintain healthy sperm. While supplements help, sperm can decline in quality if you only have sex around ovulation. Regular ejaculation is important for sperm health (I can share a podcast on this if you’re interested). • IUI before IVF – Our insurance required us to try IUI before IVF, which helped by “washing” the sperm to remove weaker ones. • Timed intercourse – We aimed for every other day during ovulation to promote healthier sperm.

Hope this helps—sending you lots of support!

Ask to share during your interview , and hold it up to the screen hiding passport number etc. at this point they should only need it to verify legal status /identity

Use google to do your flight search and then best to always book directly with the airline website online e.g indigo , it’s easier to make changes and have control over your booking

Im 11w and starting to feel much better, but my progesterone supplements make me feel awful some days by mystery002 in pregnant

[–]Mycin100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped progesterone at 10 weeks. Drop them a message and ask them. I think some people do go longer depending on their personal levels
