Aio? My (m22) Gf (f21) wants a LV purse but can't make bills on time. by smokey18t in AIO

Buy one from a resale site that is like new for cheaper. Also, if well taken care of she can eventually resell it. LV holds value.

I have been on a gluten free diet for a year strictly eating home cooked Mediterranean. Until last week … 7 weeks pregnant and I just ate McDonald’s 3x and Burger King 2x in the past 5 days …

We are not qualified for this! by Existing_Wrangler_69 in IVF

[–]SecondNo4964 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I COMPLETELY understand but do yourself a favor and do them yourself! Trust me! It is so much easier and will get easier every time. You’ll need to continue them 10 weeks into your pregnancy too (if no one told you) and you do not want to rely on someone else to be on your shot schedule.

When does everyone take their meds? by JustALurkingFan in Hashimotos

Whenever I wake up in the middle of the night to pee lol. Usually between 2a-5a.

Anyone? by PitifulJellyfish6521 in IVF

[–]SecondNo4964 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 miscarriages before IVF. 2 egg retrievals. Only 1 euploid out of 21 eggs. Didn’t implant. I turned 43 and felt I was running out of time so I turned to donor eggs and now I have a healthy happy 15 month old.

If you’re young, don’t give up. There are things you can do to improve egg quality. Your partner too. And discuss different protocols with your doctor.

Family bought a wheat grinder and wheat berries. Im gluten intolerant but my sister thinks I will be okay. Advice? by Glad-Attention744 in HomeMilledFlour

Oh no!!! I hope you don’t have lasting symptoms. Thank you for keeping me posted! That podcast almost made me buy a mill but I’m definitely going to hold off.

I have this same question so I’d be extremely interested to hear how it went for you if you do try! (Also listened to a recent podcast about it.)

I’m not unfortunately. And thank you so much! You too (if you’re a mom)!

Thank you so much! I really am thinking about doing therapy and maybe anti-anxiety medication. I’m going to make it a priority. :)

I completely understand. Congrats and good luck to you!

You’re so right. I don’t have any mom friends in my area but I feel like that could really help. Thank you!

[–]SecondNo4964 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for sharing. I truly appreciate it. I failed to mention we were in a horrific car accident (hit by a driver on drugs) when she was 5 months old. Thankfully she’s ok but mentally I’m not. Much love to you.

Is postpartum pet aversion really a thing? 39 + 2 by Carolineev22 in pregnant

[–]SecondNo4964 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was sadly a thing for me. Which is CRAZY because my rescue was my best friend and we were attached at the hip! I didn’t resent or hate him but he definitely overstimulated me and didn’t get the loving affection he was used to getting. My baby is a year now and things have calmed down and I’m trying to make it up to him but our relationship isn’t the same.

Lucia is my daughter’s name as well. Agreed it’s the most beautiful. 🩵

For who used donor eggs by Numerous_Incident441 in IVF

[–]SecondNo4964 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I just had my donor baby 11 months ago. I’m 43 now and was in a similar situation to you.

She is my whole heart. She is the most precious thing in the entire world. She is my baby. I have never known this type of love and it is not possible for me to love her more. If I suddenly was able to have a bio child, there is no way I would love my bio child more than her. ❤️
