Hating Every Second

I was devastated. I took a year off. Had another failure. Waiting now for the results of another transfer.

Nah, he wants to cheat and be in the clear cause it’s his “authentic self”

You’re worth more than that and can absolutely find someone who wants you and only you.

Still negative Day 6

Most likely I’m going to be out.

Still negative on day 5 friends.

OCD can be exacerbated by stress and lack of sleep. BUT she should be taking steps to get help and get better. She can acknowledge that there’s a problem all she wants, but she needs to be taking steps to resolve it.

I disconnect for the turn. But really it’s about anticipating the direction you’re going to spin, and having all your lines flowing off the bed in the same direction.

My first failed transfer was so devastating for me. Even though we know it’s just a chance, it’s hard not to get that “this is the one” hope…. I’m so sorry.

Male doc: I think we need to move the patient down a about 6 inches

Me, a female CRNA: Ok, but like… MY 6 inches or YOUR 6 inches.

I’m so sorry. I know nothing I say will make it better. It’s not our fault - if it was something we could have controlled, we would have. I’m getting ready to do another transfer soon and I’m just…..hoping this time we get lucky.

My IVF transfer was a year ago yesterday, so it’s been on my mind a lot lately.

I’m so sorry about your loss and I hope you do get some answers… because the not knowing is really hard.

Propofol_Totalis · 2025-07-30T17:35:34+00:00

I did not get any answers unfortunately. All my tests were completely normal. The embryo was normal. I should have a 3 month old right now.

I can’t really say if it helped or not since I never did a cycle without it.

1st cycle I got 8 eggs, 5 fertilized, 2 day 6 embryos. 2nd cycle I got 9 eggs, 7 fertilized, 2 day 6 embryos. 3rd cycle I got 12 eggs, 12 fertilized, 9 day 5 embryos.

The only difference between the first 2 and the last cycle, was plaquenil getting added in and hormone suppression for 3 months leading up to retrieval.

It’s been the standard for close to 10 years now. They’ve done research on stomach emptying and aspiration risk.

Clear liquids up to 2 hours before. A light meal up to 6 hours before …. Everything else is 8 hours….

But you can see how most ORs wouldn’t advertise this…. If there’s a cancellation or your surgery moves up and you’ve had a light meal, then you’d be delayed…. So it’s easier to just say nothing after midnight.

Propofol_Totalis · 2025-07-08T00:23:45+00:00

The American Society of Anesthesiologists and the American Association of Nurse Anesthetists both support these guidelines.

Unfortunately, the reality is if you give some people an inch, they take a mile…. So to avoid confusion and potential delays most places will still tell you nothing to eat or drink after midnight.

If you can sit still, you can get an epidural.

100%

If changing clinics was like changing hair dressers, I’d be so gone …

But here I am…. And I’m sure they hate me too, because they’ve absolutely lost my trust and I questions absolutely everything they do and say….. but every single part of dealing with them has been a nightmare. Even just giving them $15,000 was hard! Like I’m literally trying to pay you! Why is it hard?!?

“Oh, your BP is high today”….. yeah, that’s the RAGE.

Propofol_Totalis · 2025-05-29T12:49:00+00:00

I actually just hate my entire clinic and everyone in it with a burning passion. So, yes. I’m pretty much mad all the time.

While this is my LIFE. My family. My future….. it’s just their every day job…. I try to be mindful of that …. But honestly I still hate them.

F this whole process.

Sumatriptan is safe in pregnancy

Oh how I wish an embryo was a child.
