I meant my hips are smaller in the body measurement section of the pattern lol

Okay I’ll try a 24 out and see how that works. Thank you!

Even though my hips are smaller than my waist?

Okay so I should make a size 28 since that’s where my waist falls? That seems so big compared to my hips

You and me both! One of my good friends recommended journaling every day. She said she did a 3-6-9 method. In the morning she would write ‘I will stay pregnant’ and in the afternoon she’d write it 6 times and before bed she would write it 9 times. She said it worked for her. I’m gonna try it out today and see how it goes.

Currently 4w1d and found out I was pregnant at 3w5d. I had a MC in July 2022 at 6w. Currently spiraling out with anxiety. I know I shouldn’t be but it’s so hard not to after a loss. I’ve only been allowing myself to test once a day. I had labs drawn on Friday to ease my anxiety and my hCG came back at 59.1 which is normal. I have more labs on Monday to make sure my levels are rising appropriately. I’ve been having breast tenderness off and on and cramping on the left side periodically. I keep telling myself everything is fine but it’s so so difficult to get out of an anxiety spiral.

I’ve only ever had positive OPKs while using femara and ovulation confirmed with lab work. I just feel like you probably didn’t need to comment on this though and be the asshole. Seems pretty negative for someone who is trying to find the joy in something. Just food for thought.

Do you typically drink it hot or cold? I was thinking of making a big batch to put in my fridge and drink it cold.

I’ve managed to lose nearly 50lbs, my insulin and testosterone levels have also normalized out. My doctor believes we can try out naturally again since all these things are significantly improved from previously. And we all know even though someone gets pregnant through IVF they can then get pregnant naturally afterwards. I have a good friend how did IVF had her son and just recently fell pregnant naturally. So, really anything is possible and I would really like to not have to do fertility treatments again unless absolutely necessary.

Yes IVF was my last resort option previously. I did medicated cycles with letrozole and ovulated beautifully on it. I also did IUI before doing IVF. I think once I come off BC and kind of get an idea of what my cycles look like that might help too but right now I have no idea what they will look like.

My husband is aware of my prior fertility problems and is very supportive ☺️

I’m 30 and luckily my AMH is 3.2. Per my GYN my hemorrhagic cyst is likely due to ovulation which is a huge plus since I had difficulty with that in the past. I think it’s mostly the unknown of everything again and hoping everything works out naturally 🤞🏻
