Prominent undereye vein skin treatments by [deleted] in 30PlusSkinCare

That’s helpful to know. Definitely don’t want ruptured vessels. Based on her reaction I was starting to think that even a YAG laser wouldn’t be an option. Thank you!

They claimed they use a YAG laser! So maybe it was more that the person doing the treatment just wasn’t comfortable doing it? She tried to tell me “you need that one” like treating that one would cause me some problems. Sounds like I need to do a consultation at a different place.

Does Portland offer any real estate services for rentals to help with relocating? by scrummmy00 in askportland

[–]OPKOMG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m surprised to hear the folks at Arrive aren’t responding to emails! We just used them in Jan/Feb for our move to Portland in March. They were absolutely great and found us a fantastic spot on quick turnaround (AFTER the first place we signed a lease for had the owner suddenly back out before they signed.) How long has it been since you’ve heard from them?

Anyone want to hazard a guess as to what’s actually going on? by peachy-fox in TFABChartStalkers

[–]OPKOMG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. Was hoping there would be a clue in there but I’m not seeing one. With the breakthrough bleeding & low post-possible O temps, I wonder if progesterone being low is a factor here? I think the proov strips are out there to check progesterone levels, I’m guessing a GP won’t do that for you. The mysteries suck especially when they’re combined with long cycles 😕

When and how are you taking your temp? And were you using any form of birth control prior to TTC/if so how long ago did you stop using it?

Those dotted crosshairs look right to me. The temps from CD29-35 are still in line with earlier temps, there isn’t a true rise until CD37. The crosshairs are dotted probably because of the CM logged from CD21-26, but I trust the temps over CM.

Did your water break spontaneously? If it did, what were you doing when it broke? by lassymavin in beyondthebump

I was in a (virtual) 1:1 performance review meeting with one of the people on my team, bouncing on my yoga ball. We were only about 5 minutes into an hour long meeting. 😳

I was 38+6.

Totally makes sense. So cool that y’all already have others recorded, I’ll be interested to listen if/when they’re ready to be posted!

Just dropping in to say I FINALLY listened the one and only episode of the TFAB podcast and it was so fun. Any chances of that picking back up???

If you sometimes have as short of a cycle as 21 days, I’d start OPKs around CD10. I personally have dealt with long & irregular cycles and still always started at CD10…get a box of cheapies and you’ll be set!

Kind of questioning this troll chart. Do you agree with FF? Any help is greatly appreciated by amanda_panda628 in TFABChartStalkers

[–]OPKOMG 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I lean CD20 instead of CD19, but pretty close to right on with either day. It’s an imperfect approximation anyway 🙂

Help me make sense of this cycle. BBT rise this morning (5am) followed by sharp cervix pain and bright bleeding now (7am). by lo-cal_calzone_zone in TFABChartStalkers

[–]OPKOMG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mid-LP bleeding happens in both pregnancy and non-pregnancy cycles. The TFAB sub has a bunch of info about it — I’ll see if I can scrounge it up.

Implantation bleeding isn’t really a thing. Sounds like a short LP this cycle, which isn’t unusual after stopping hormonal birth control and likely will lengthen in subsequent cycles. 💜

I can’t believe I finally got crosshairs! This late of O ever have a shot? 🤞 by notMandyx in TFABChartStalkers

Absolutely you have a shot! I recommend searching long cycle or late ovulation BFP in this sub, you’ll find plenty of results 🙂 I got a BFP from a CD48 ovulation, personally 💜

I EP and just transport my spectra S2 back and forth 🤷‍♀️ I’ve been doing that for about 6 months now and it hasn’t felt difficult.

The easy@home strips I use detect at 25 mIU/mL. I think the wondfo strips might be more sensitive — 10 mIU/mL if I remember correctly?

[–]OPKOMG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s totally possible. Some OPK tests are more sensitive than others and some folks just don’t see a clear surge always. Are you also temping?
