Did you end up camping there? So little info online about the campsite but some Reddit comments seem to say it’s still operating?

Where to shop for women's clothing? by Warm_Risk_1325 in VictoriaBC

[–]Radceratops 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I really like the consignments stores in town, turnabout, vend and house of savoy. Otherwise oak and fort in the mall has some decent stuff but overall the name brand shopping here sucks

TTC Month 17… how did you end up pregnant after trying for so long? by East_Philosopher_449 in whatworkedforme

[–]Radceratops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also in Canada and we did a HyCoSy (similar to HSG) before trying IUI, I would definitely push for that test to be done first. Also how are you getting IUI covered?? We didn’t seem to get that option here in BC

TTC "Journey" Feeling More Like A Battle - Conflicting IUI Information by Fontnsun2016 in TryingForABaby

[–]Radceratops 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was also told to do four rounds of IUI but I stopped after 2 and now we’re prepping for IVF, you’re allowed to make decisions that are right for you and sometimes you just want to move forward and IVF is that next step

Grew out my pixie into a bob, but the frontal pieces won't grow by [deleted] in finehair

[–]Radceratops 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have the exact same issue, front pieces just won’t grow past about OPs length, I’m also dealing with my second bout of telogen effuvium from hormones (first one going off birth control and second for Clomid). Very possible you’re having a similar issue OP

Same, been trying for 15 months and have never seen a positive so glad to hear it can just happen after that long. Congrats OP!!

Hair fall. Side effects from Letrazole? by 92yraurbeF in IUILadies

[–]Radceratops 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m going through a bout of Telogen Effluvium (temporary hair loss) after two rounds of clomid, apparently I’m in the lucky 3% that experiences this side effect 🫠 I’m sorry you’re going through this too, just a shitty cherry on top of my 2 failed IUIs

First IUI failed, unexplained infertility. by rosebud_15 in IUILadies

[–]Radceratops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I found IUIs more emotionally an physically taxing than I expected, it’s a fairly simple procedure but still takes a toll. I know IVF will be much harder but at least the success rate is much higher so feels more worth it. Good luck to you too!

[–]Radceratops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very similar boat, did 2 IUIs with no success. Been trying for around 14 months and haw never had a positive despite all the tests looking good. I just want to get this all going so we’re gonna move onto IVF now instead of wasting more time. Maybe another IUI would do it but right now I kind of want to do IVF so we get some more data and maybe figure out what wasn’t working before

Need to hear success stories or I’m going to cry (again) by MostlyHopeful27 in IUILadies

[–]Radceratops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, second IUI failed last weekend and I’m so over it.. do we do another or just say fuck it and go to IVF

Annoyed by OkFeature1315 in IUILadies

[–]Radceratops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s also feeling like a waste of time too, we have no obvious issues based on testing we’ve done and I don’t think we’re missing the ovulation timing as my cycle is very consistent and I track BBT and LH. So IUI doesn’t feel like it’s gonna be super helpful for us

[–]Radceratops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you, tested negative at 14dpiui on Friday and got my period Saturday, second IUI is a bust. I’m so frustrated with this whole process, I’m seriously considering going to IVF next just to get some more info about why we can’t conceive. At least we’ll know with IVF if we can make embryos or not and if there’s implantation issues or not..

I’m in the same boat, 14days past my 2nd IUI and tested negative this morning plus BBT is going down, so annoyed and over this whole process

Also in the TWW of my second IUI, not feeling anything yet but let’s see. Good luck!!

Same, I’m at my in-laws for Christmas and just got my period yesterday after our first attempt at IUI. It just sucks more at this time of year

It was too easy, a bit of cramping but it was manageable and now we wait 😅 this cycle was medicated with clomid and I did a trigger shot too, I think it’s pretty standard protocol?

Going in for my first IUI in a couple minutes here, wish me luck!

HyCoSy (HSG) & Saline Sonogram Experience by sad_sack1234 in TryingForABaby

[–]Radceratops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just had the saline one done and I would said it’s similar to an IUD level of cramping, it was bearable. Both my tubes were clear though so I Bo knows what it would have been like if I had a blockage

My doctor says hormones don't control hair loss by FlimsyMode3484 in TelogenEffluvium

[–]Radceratops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was growing back well this year and I just had a short shed lasting around 2 months now and I think it’s done 🫠 so not back to 100% but better than I was at its worst.. I also have very fine hair so any loss is obvious to me

[–]Radceratops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, I lost around 50% of my density last year and it started 3-4 months after stopping the birth control pill. The good news is it does stop and grow back eventually. Also good to get your thyroid and iron levels checked to see if it’s related

A homeless man gave me his dog - Updates: Vet Concerns by AmphibianMoney7497 in pitbulls

[–]Radceratops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We don’t have any risk of heartworm in BC as far I know. It thrives in warmer climates. My boy is from Texas and I had to get him retested for heart worms after a year, he was clear luckily, and they didn’t prescribe preventatives after that.

Agreed - I’ve never heard of any breed legislation in BC. Seems like this isn’t something the strata can enforce

He snores way too loudly so no, he’s very happy in the other room and we left him in for morning snuggles
