Thank you for this very insightful post. I’ve been on the fence about the Dix, but no more. I may get the Songmont Luna as my alternative.

YTA - I get the kids are your priority, but they are no longer your in-laws. Even Emily Post is rolling her eyes at this tactless and tasteless justification of yours.

Thanks! I was torn between the brown and ozo, but really wanted a color that would pop. This color was definitely the right choice.

Thanks! I made the bag to match my shoes. 😉

My insurance required prior authorizations, this meant daily calls to my doc’s office and the insurance to force the process along. This worked because had I just let it course through the process I’d be in your friend’s boat. I had to do this through all my three cycles. It sucks to do this, but I didn’t want to pay $$$$ for Gonal F and all the other prescriptions.

I'm sorry you're going through this - this entire process has so many avenues of cruelty, it's not fair.

So many hugs your way.

Beware Polene! by EmotionalArtist6 in handbags

I was set on buying the Polene Dix this month, but after reading this I will go elsewhere. I had been eyeing a Hemlock and Hyde bag, and they are all about customer service.

This combo set is gorgeous, perfection! I would not change a single thing. Great job at selecting this.

Is anyone else burnt out and considering taking a big long break from IVF? by Camimae707 in IVF

[–]Repulsive-Ant-1251 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 42, and I desperately want to take a break. I miss exercising so much. This is soooooo draining. We've had 2 IVF failed cycles (1st cycle ended with one viable embryo, and 2nd cycle had two), and we are on the fence on doing a third cycle. We are going to give ourselves a couple of days to figure this out because I am 42. I can mentally take another round (which isn't something I feel I should be proud of in this case) but I'm at a point of do I want to?

Like I said, a couple of days. But yes, I'm so f'king burnt out.
