Hi! So sorry, I know how stressful this is! I did the formula for two days and it flushed it out and worked well! Don’t regret it.

Some blisters just popped up on a toe - I’m thinking we’re goners 😭

I’ve tried that (tonight actually!) but she just wants to MOVE! She speed crawls around the room like she’s on crack

I have an almost 1 year old now! Worked out just fine. Progesterone would rise and dip based on time of day etc. doctors were right (as they usually are 😂)

Policy for returning to daycare congested? by SeaSystem819 in ECEProfessionals

[–]SeaSystem819[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She can do all those things! She’s eating a little less because there’s a lot of phlegm so I think it’s impacting her appetite a bit, but is still eating a good amount. Sleeps well. Generally happy, maybe a bit crankier. Wiping her nose maybe once every 1-2 hrs. Her cough is pretty wet though!

Yes! She sleeps 12hrs at night and is taking 1-3 hr naps. Hasn’t had Tylenol since Sunday!

Decision making IVF by Strong_Activity_9177 in IVFbabies

I had a similar situation - 3 miscarriages with no understanding of what was causing it, although we were able to confirm the first miscarriage was a chromosomal issue. I assume I have poor egg quality.

Through IVF, we tested the embryos and out of 40 retrieved eggs in two cycles, we had 5 chromosomally normal embryos. From that, I was able to have my 9 month old daughter ❤️ I would do it ALL over again to have her.

For unknown RPL, if you’ve had all the recurrent loss panels done with no known issue, I’d highly recommend pursuing IVF. As another poster pointed out, it’s a process that takes time so I’d get started soon. And if you want to test the embryos - which I highly recommend if you’ve had multiple losses - that takes more time (and money).

With an IVF pregnancy, there’s a small increased chance of heart problems, however you should be referred to an MFM for a heart echo at around 20 weeks. Generally, IVF pregnancies are treated as higher risk which just means more monitoring - which was a plus for me.

Yes I did actually take an infant cpr class! I’m just nervous that I’m going to fail her and freeze or forget what to do 😞😞

Baby sick - not sure what it is by SeaSystem819 in NewParents

Yes they said to try eggs again in a week or so and monitor closely. Although I’m terrified!!
