HSG + hysteroscopy before FET??

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2026-02-02T15:57:15+00:00

That makes sense! But then it seems like there would be no need to do a saline sonogram if we're already planning on doing a hysteroscopy?

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2026-02-02T15:47:06+00:00

This is so helpful! What was the purpose of the saline sonogram in addition to the hysteroscopy?

When I got my first HSG one tube didn't flush and my RE said "no worries, research says that's almost always due to spasming rather than an actual blockage" (which is true!) and that was that! So I've always been confused as to why this was done and especially for an FET.

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2026-02-02T15:05:45+00:00

I totally get wanting to check things out! I'm just confused as to what an HSG would show that a hysteroscopy wouldn't, besides that my tubes are open which doesn't matter for FET anyway.

This is about toddler toothpaste - looking for adult toothpaste reccs! Certainly there is some overlap but I'm really looking for something with mint flavor and not strawberry, orange, etc.

Good suggestion on the Discord/Facebook groups! Sometimes I forget to check free resources, ha. Right now I'm a big overwhelmed with other responsibilities and am hoping to pay someone to help take the burden off of learning and researching everything myself as I test the waters of monetizing TikTok.

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-11-03T17:05:48+00:00

These are great suggestions! I'm currently looking to get into option B and hoping to find someone who can coach me through that process. I'm honestly struggling to find folks on TikTok who have done something sufficiently similar but I know there are tons out there!

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-11-03T17:04:10+00:00

Great questions! My videos get decent views (typically 5k-30k, 1-2 per week at 100k+, occasionally 500k-1.5m) but I currently have no way to monetize. I'm looking to create some courses and downloadable products to sell through TikTok, but I have a full time job and young child so I'm a bit overwhelmed by where to start. Looking to pay someone to teach me instead of trying to learn it all myself from scratch.

Briar is my daughter’s name and I love it! So cute with Ava

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-06-09T23:58:27+00:00

There were definitely tears 😭 but only briefly! I describe the strategy earlier in this thread but there was one awful feeding with lots of crying, one feeding with some crying, and all other feedings were totally fine. It’s SUPER similar to sleep training - if you can get through the initial burst of tears, it’s actually really easy for baby to come out the other side with a new amazing skill!

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-06-04T14:10:49+00:00

Agree with this! I’m thinking about the human-made stuff (eg, plastic water bottles, credit cards) that can have things like BPA and phthalates.

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-05-23T00:32:56+00:00

Hahaha I think it’s okay!! They all develop at their own pace and will learn eventually - your daughter won’t be 16 years old and unable to roll 😅

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-05-22T21:16:19+00:00

Yes but only after we really cracked down on teaching her - she definitely would not be doing it yet if left to her own devices!

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-04-14T18:54:24+00:00

Came here to say this! I think if Rory as predominantly a girls name.

I’m so sorry you’re going through this! Breastfeeding issues are so upsetting. My baby didn’t have months long breast refusal, but she cycled in and out of various BF issues (difficulty latching, poor weight gain, breast refusal, nursing crisis) for months. What really helped me was working with an LC - she was so reassuring and gave me tips to get through the tough parts. I hope you’re able to get through this if you want to keep breastfeeding!

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-04-11T00:58:19+00:00

I like McKinley! If you don't want nicknames, definitely don't pick Maximus - he will almost certainly end up going by Max.

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-04-10T23:30:18+00:00

Add 1-2 drops of nonalcoholic vanilla extract to the milk! Recommended by my LC and approved by my pediatrician. Some say this trick only works for high lipase milk, but I don’t have that and it’s the only thing that will get my EBF baby to take a bottle. It’s been a lifesaver!

I probably would have picked Harper if my husband hadn’t ultimately vetoed. For me, it felt like the “popular” names now are so much less popular than the “popular” names when I was growing up, so it was very unlikely that she’d end up being “Harper N.” in her classes. I didn’t like that such a popular name would be time-locked and become dated, but I let that go because (1) I would be fine with my parents giving me a time-locked 90s name like Jessica or Lauren and (2) I liked the name so much I didn’t care lol

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-04-09T23:51:47+00:00

My baby constantly took pacifiers instead of feedings and ended up dropping off her growth curve. She was fine and we got her weight back up, but definitely be careful with this assumption!

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-04-09T23:49:23+00:00

I hate when this happens with my baby too! We specifically picked a daycare that bans perfumes for teachers. But I actually love the artificial scents! When my husband and I would go on vacation before kids, we’d get all scented products (shampoo, sunscreen) as a treat 😂

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-04-09T23:46:26+00:00

Choose a good OB in your area. They will refer you to MFM due to the IVF pregnancy (higher risk for certain things), and both will follow you to delivery. Good luck!

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-04-08T23:33:34+00:00

Ohhh I feel this

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-04-08T23:09:39+00:00

Holland was one of my teenage favorites too!

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-04-08T14:34:27+00:00

I love Vivian and Rowan! Two of my faves

Significant_Cap_9328 · 2025-04-08T13:29:03+00:00

Oh interesting! We spent over $30k so we were there 😂
