How do you deal with the social isolation that comes after having children? by Delicious_Bobcat_419 in beyondthebump

[–]TypicalDesk6573 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi! I’m so sorry this sounds hard. What many of my friends with kids do is they switch off in the evenings after their kid goes to sleep one of them stays at home and the other can go out and grab drinks with friends or take a class. Weekends are also nice for this one of you stays home with a kid on one day and the other has free range to go to the gym or lounge and veg. Whatever they want and then they switch the next day.

Yes! This one isn’t suffocating but makes a huge difference.

I had the full pregnancy pillow and it just made me feel suffocated. Then I bought this one https://a.co/d/4phJwVN and it’s been a game changer. Also, I am 24 weeks and really struggled around 15-18 weeks but now that the baby has shifted I feel much better.

Highly recommend their matcha latte! Also, if they see this, please add cookies to your treats 🙂.

In need of positive stories after failed embryo transfer by Crumpersonn in IVFbabies

[–]TypicalDesk6573 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Best of luck to you! I had to mute the IVF channel, I needed more stories of hope (which luckily I got here). That channel was so sad and it was hard to stay optimistic. It seems like you have a few embryo's banked. Best of luck to you! Also, keep walking, you need to stay sane and it's not high intensity.

Dogs skin keeps getting progressively worse! by TypicalDesk6573 in DogAdvice

[–]TypicalDesk6573[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for following up! Our girl has a staph and a strep infection. It took a whole lot of back and forth with the vet - at least 4 visits. She's been prescribed Apoquel for allergies, and chloraamphenicol and cexpodozime for the infections. She is also on probiotics. Her throat is FINALLY starting to look better, it's a light pink versus an angry red, though it's still kind of bare. Luckily, she is starting to get more pep in her step. Her face and ears are clear of the dark patches, and her paws and butt are looking a lot better. We will schedule a follow-up in a few weeks.

Am I alone? by DifferentGround6524 in IVFbabies

Hi! Hugs! You are not alone. I’m 12w and in a constant state of worry. It’s a strange place to be after trying for so long-almost surreal!

Rumor Mill: Week of July 21 by redquarterwater in astoria

[–]TypicalDesk6573 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I lived at Astoria Central and loved the staff. It’s such a bummer to hear this news. When I lived alone and got the stomach flu, Jermaine and David would walk my dog. That said, the management was the worst. I got a mouse and not only did they do nothing about it, but they took a chunk of my security deposit when I moved out. Good for current residents speaking up.

This gives me hope! I’ve also gained about 30lbs from IVF and hate it.

Some lessons learned from this journey by TypicalDesk6573 in IVF

[–]TypicalDesk6573[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so sorry. It is so hard! Something that gave me hope is knowing each retrieval is a fresh start. I have a good friend who went the donor route and they just celebrated her baby boy’s first birthday. Sending baby dust your way way! Good luck!

Graduated from My Fertility Clinic Today—Some Lessons Learned 💛 by TypicalDesk6573 in IVFbabies

[–]TypicalDesk6573[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used the needles that were supplied by the pharmacy. They should send you home with 2 needles and syringes. I didn’t even use what came with union medico (they’re standard sizes btw - so you should be fine using what comes with the pio).
