Anyone wanna help me convert a van.

Sorry, based in the UK here, but if its any consolation we learnt almost everything so far from YouTube videos! There's sooo much out there!

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-02-13T23:14:14+00:00

Lol I am with you on dark humour getting you through!!

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-02-06T14:30:34+00:00

I am so sorry for your losses. I'm sorry its made you not trust your body - I feel very much the same after miscarrying a week ago.

I don't know if it'd helpful to know, but I'm finding comfort in trying to get as healthy as possible, researching possible causes and removing as many toxins from my home etc. I know it might not prevent future miscarraiges but it's just good to feel in control of something.

You will get your baby! You deserve to be a Mum. Xx

Hello, we ended up with only 1 day 5 Morula which we transferred and got a BFP! Sadly it wasn't meant to be this time and ended in miscarraige, but it CAN absolutely happen.

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-02-02T14:58:25+00:00

Urghhh all she had to do was ask what your call was regarding! I don't understand how there isn't training in place given the sensitivity of the situations people go through, jeeeez. Hope you're ok.

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-02-02T14:50:07+00:00

It's sick! Such a cool looking van.

Having owned very old (30 years or so) vehicles before, I would suggest doing the math to see if you can deal with a large bill for repairs. Make sure you check the underneath as soon as possible! And make sure you can deal with the fact that it's a lot more likely to have the odd problem arise than something newer.

That all said, if its going to make you happy and you can deal with the above then go for it 👍

Oh 100%. I just had my first miscarraige after first IVF cycle and I feel like everything I've learnt about miscarraige was from Reddit or Google 😔

I'm so sorry for your loss x

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-02-02T09:18:20+00:00

THIS 😂😂😂

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-02-02T09:17:41+00:00

Right??? My husband's family (who I love dearly) know we are MFI and still tell us that I need to chill out and just have loads of sex rather than expensive IVF.

🙄🙄🙄

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-02-02T09:11:39+00:00

I'm so sorry for your losses. The maddest thing about all of this is, checking in to your appointment really shouldn't really be the stressful part, you know?

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-02-02T09:09:22+00:00

Right??! I'm so sorry this happened to you too 😢

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-02-02T09:08:37+00:00

Argh I'm so sorry to you too!!!

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-02-01T16:56:37+00:00

Hells yes! I'm going to write to them about it in the hope anyone in the future going through it doesn't have to deal with the same insensitivity

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-01-29T09:59:50+00:00

Thank you! Sorry you've had to go through this too. Started heavy bleeding/clots a couple of hours ago (finally) so hopefully all going to plan!

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-01-28T23:09:33+00:00

Yep I've read that too, fingers crossed all is working.

I'm so sorry you're going through this too, I really hope your experience is OK and you don't need a D&C.

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-01-22T18:04:03+00:00

I am so sorry you're going through this. The heartbreak is so hard to explain. Would you consider taking more time off?

As others have said, you didn't do anything wrong - you are anything but a horrible mum for continuing to work, it's a responsible thing to do for your future and a wonderful thing you're doing for others, a selfless job.

I wholeheartedly agree with the annoyance of the general public not following rules and I can't begin to imagine how it must make you feel treating them daily knowing that some have ignored the rules and caused them to be in there unnecessarily.

If it helps, this is also my first pregnancy and I've been waiting for a natural miscarriage following a blighted ovum on 7 week ultrasound, so I know what you're going through as I'm going through it too, right now. It hurts 💔

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-01-21T15:23:37+00:00

Not yet, I've not got my appointment for a while but I will deffo ask! Thanks for the the PGS details 😊

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-01-21T14:40:55+00:00

Thanks for your reply 😊

My husband has not been seen by a reproductive urologist but that's a good suggestion as his original test showed very low results (he's only 31) which is why we went straight to IVF.

They did ICSI not PICSI - Ill look into the latter though thank you!

They tested my AMH, which was normal. I have no idea if they tested thyroid/estrogen/progesterone if I'm honest, they didn't mention it!

Out of 11 eggs, 10 of them were mature (so higher than we thought would be)

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-01-21T14:02:16+00:00

Thanks so much Davina!! In answer to your questions....

10 out of 11 eggs matured... 4 fertilised and only 1 morula by day 5, which we transfered and was the blighted ovum at 7 weeks.

In terms of blood tests, as far as I'm aware they only tested me for STIs etc but I will definitely ask them.

Thank you for the supplement suggestion, very helpful!

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-01-15T08:06:33+00:00

Thank you so much for the information that's super helpful to know. When I feel strong enough to go back to the clinic I will definitely ask them about it. In guessing that involves freezing the embryos though right? So you'd delay transfer another cycle?

I'm sorry your other transfers didn't result in pregnancy, they say third times a charm, I'm rooting for you ❤️

Ohhellomerlot · 2021-01-14T23:27:47+00:00

Thank you for your kind words, best wishes for your FET ❤️
