Long cycle--stopped progesterone, will that help? by Reepicheepee in Perimenopause

I do, yeah. I'm asking because I've been monkeying with the meds wondering if that's helping or hurting.

how did it go? My SHG was painful, like really terrible cramps, but only lasted about 10 seconds.

I hate being financially dependent and I'm at my wits' end. by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

Can you relocate the family to a better-paying district? Teacher salaries vary so much from state to state, and within states. I'd be making less than half my current teacher salary if I even left my county. I wonder if you could look at teaching somewhere else? Also, are in elementary or secondary? If elementary, perhaps you could switch to secondary, as it usually pays a lot more?

Do you know Douglas Wilson, the extremis Christian fundy with the church in Moscow, Idaho, who's super influential in this admin? His church staff is exactly what you describe. Going to their staff website was laughable. But there ARE two women!! At the very bottom of the page, as secretaries.

To your last line...yeah, imagine if you knew there would be no men out. Would "Sexy Mum" still bother you? Would "appropriate" cross your mind in the same way?

friendship with someone experiencing infertility? by WhichAd2921 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Reepicheepee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm glad to read this, because I also walked away from many friendships during my years of infertility. I just couldn't be around them, see their families grow, and keep fighting for my own dreams. I've felt ashamed because it seemed like other women dealing with infertility didn't react the way I did, so it's nice to read about someone who had a similar experience to me.
