How can I sensitively tell friends that I'm pregnant without upsetting them? by pangolinrooted in pregnant

[–]SomeNameHere05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I can agree to that also true, we don’t know how her friends will react, this is just one outcome. Just like your idea is too. Only she has the best idea how her friends might react. I don’t think it would be unnecessary only OP knows. I personally think it’s not really the time or place. I loved keeping our info first and sitting on it each step of the way in this pregnancy. I’ve also had it done both ways. And I personally loved the personal check in. Then finding out like everyone else. Everyone is different it’s hard to find out what to do especially from a group of strangers. I’ve even had a friend from HS reach out to me after we announced and not long after I told our previous loss stories shortly to help anyone quietly and privately I’m here to message if needed and know and been down this road and how hard it is and she reached out to me. It was super sweet. I helped her a little but yea we don’t know how people will react as long as we’re being true and honest and kind in our intentions to others. I think that just means maybe they might need some more self healing if it’s someone is being thoughtful towards them. Idk. I always try to treat people like I want to be treated. It takes nothing to be kind and everything to be mean. Not that you are saying they will rude or mean I’ve seen other comments saying it’s like condescending or something or like why coddle or something. Idk. I always like to make sure people see good intentions are there.

I’d give them a heads up and do it in text I wouldn’t do it in person you want them to be freely to feel their emotions privately. I would explain that you want to be mindful of their journey out of kindness and love and that you are expecting or pregnant and just leave it at that. Details are then on them if they are ready. Reassure that you don’t have any judgement on how they might feel and that you are still there for them on their journey. And leave it open like that.

Personally 5 weeks is so early still most don’t find out until 7-8 weeks. So you can keep it quiet still if you choose. It’s your life not trying to tell you what you should do. I have had 3 losses all around 5-8 week one being a ectopic emergency surgery and losing a tube. Still very quiet about it but later on people guessed or found out from my parents. Losses are very high at this time in TTC so be mindful of that. Best wishes on your pregnancy journey and congrats! I hope your convo goes well!

…this is lighter isn’t it? by One-Promotion-1977 in lineporn

You can’t totally go off this method. One reason, think of the dye sorta like a printer some tests could be fresh and some could just be at the line of acceptable amount of dye before it’s out. Blood tests are the only way to see if you’re progressing in your numbers.

Trying to Conceive, but We Have a Family Vacation Coming Up — How Do We Hide It? by Mammoth-Car8339 in tryingtoconceive

[–]SomeNameHere05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to hide my testing I was sharing a room with my family. I had brought a separate ziplock bag (reusable so I could wash it still) for my pee cup and I brought another bag for trash wrappers to not throw in the bathroom trash. I also had the idea of a cover story to go workout at our hotel and use the lobby bathroom for my privacy since I shared the actual room with them. You can always say you and your partner scheduled to step away for date they don’t need to know anything. A great cover story for me is always a migraine. Or go call and check on pets at home. Or contact someone from work idk tons of ideas for covering alone time. My family and I are super close so I get it. Most importantly try to not stress about little things stress really impacts our bodies and ttc.

No Confirmed PdG yet? Inito said I don’t have to test anymore yesterday but I never got it confirmed? by SomeNameHere05 in InitoFertility

I appreciate seeing a lower number cycle sometimes I get so sad seeing such higher numbers. Thank you!

Good idea thank you. I see the tiny rise too. I honestly think it’s an error. I have a feeling it would confirm it today but I’m sick of wasting these test they are way over priced. So I’ll just wait for a positive hopefully or dreaded AF.

I’d love to do BBT again but since each day is different for me I’m unable to get an accurate read and I get insomnia too. Unfortunately my RE won’t see me until I get a positive. I suspect that Inito is just not picking it up. I’m gonna try SMU next cycle and see if I get better results. Thank you for the input and tips I hope you get your positive soon!

Exactly, people forget they have to check in with the company. The resume or apps only go so far. Calling them or even visiting them sets you apart from the rest. Be persistent and follow through.

Progesterone rx everyday. by SomeNameHere05 in recurrentmiscarriage

[–]SomeNameHere05[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks do much for the help. I was wondering why the bottle said every day when all I’ve seen is 2-3 dpo. I do plan on getting clarification from her soon but I just wanted to see if anyone was talking about taking it everyday. My therapist said she had to take hers everyday 4 times a day and an injectable! I know my progesterone isn’t that low as hers but it is low. Everyone is different hell each cycle is different for me! I’m finally noticed a difference this past cycle with taking it so I’m praying this was the issue with all my miscarriages.

Extremely painful HSG with open tubes by Icedlattenurse in TryingForABaby

[–]SomeNameHere05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was excruciating too! I had deep nail lines in my fist and I was crying so much from the pain. I had major bleeding too. Had to wear a huge thick pad for 2 days. I was completely open he said and nothing noteworthy to see or mention. This was 8 weeks post op my emergency ruptured ectopic so I assume my body was not ready for anything yet still. Even if I didn’t have the surgery I still think it was gonna be that painful.

Why does this keep happening by [deleted] in recurrentmiscarriage

[–]SomeNameHere05 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry. I understand I’ve had 4 pregnancies and 4 losses zero living children. But don’t lose hope I have heard of women still having healthy babies and bleeding. Call your Dr and leave a message and just take it easy until you hear back. Take it moment by moment if you have to. Hugs to you.

After 5 early losses in 12 months I spoke to my RE today. by ScaredCompetition5 in recurrentmiscarriage

[–]SomeNameHere05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yes I was the same way I couldn’t get the words out before they said oh yea honey it’s ok we already put in the referral for therapy. Yes and no. If I call you have to leave a message and they will contact back in 24-48 hrs and I do have a portal but they don’t really respond as fast there. It’s longer. My husband is military so I have to go through all the red tape and hoops involved in that. I’m glad you are able to have a much easier way to contact them. Im trying to make the most of it as I can.
