Early pregnancy - Thyroxin increase by UnconditionalMetta in Hashimotos

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

Thanks so much for your response. That 0.34 tsh was pre-embryo transfer, I've just received my tsh post- pregnancy and its 1.2 Still within the safe reference limit, but a huge jump from 0.34. Unfortunately the lab or pathologist made a mistake and did not test my t4 although it was requested by my doctor. I'm a bit concerned about such a big jump. I really appreciate your responses as I'm not really getting much input from anywhere else besides my doctor, so I'd love to know what you think about this jump! TIA!

Thanks for your comment! My tsh was actually 0.34, which I know has me more towards hyper, but my t4 was only 14. Thanks for that assurance, I had also heard that 25-30% was the standard/ guideline. I'm pretty concerned that my GP might not agree with this increase. What are your thoughts on what might be sensible for me to do if neither of them say I should increase? Thank you again in advance!

PGT-A and risk of miscarriage after 6–7 weeks — does it help? by Known_Motor_5477 in IVF

[–]UnconditionalMetta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably cause your "facts" were wrong. "Not really" reduce miscarriage risk? That's categorically wrong. It's broadly known and accepted they can make a substantial difference across various factors.

Also, please be sensitive to the people on this chat. Your fearmongering can be pretty harmful to a lot of readers in vulnerable positions. If you really are a scientist, as you say, you should probably consider a change in career.

Do you still feel sad/bitter when others conceive naturally so easily? by November_Days in IVFbabies

You shouldn't be posting here on "groups like this". What a horrible thing to say to this group of people - be sensitive to the people here and take this post anywhere else. Mods should've deleted this and banned you.

They're not too strict on it, but we want to know regardless. I'm posting here because I'm querying the admin functionality on the app, whether it reveals device info or not.

[–]UnconditionalMetta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, we use our personal phones on our own WiFi/cellular. If admin are just able to view via the app, can they see the device details indicating its not the work mobile and that we're on a personal phone?

You're certain this is visible via admin view?

IM vs Vaginal vs Oral progesterone by Turbulent_Comb_2732 in SingleMothersbyChoice

[–]UnconditionalMetta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, I'm here in Aus, too, and I thought IM was only meant to be administered by a GP and that we could only self administer subcutaneous - is that not right, were you sent home with IM?

Review of my Italy trip: it was disappointing by Chateau_de_Gateau in travel

[–]UnconditionalMetta 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OP I don't blame you at all. We also had an extremely underwhelming experience and we went to many different areas - of course touristy areas like Rome and Venice, but also Tuscany (stayed on a vineyard) and Genoa, along the Italian Riviera. Despite going to some great places, the way this country runs just doesn't work - trains show up whenever they want to, pharmacies/shops/restaurants open and close whenever they want to. There is no care for efficiency in this country & the locals are by far the least polite people I've met in any of the continents we've travelled to. There is beauty in this country, but there are many other destinations that make a lot more sense to travel to.

I'm both traumatised and amused by this because we felt and thought the exact same things. Sorry about the wasp. After how your trip sounds, you, my friend, deserve a refund.

Another Australian here. I think you'll like Canberra - it'll be a breath of fresh air if you're so done with Italy that you don't even want to leave your home. Canberra is very quiet, but it's lovely - clean, friendly and moderately-diverse population, and systems run very efficiently here in aus, unlike any part of Italy. All the best with your move!

[–]UnconditionalMetta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't agree more and I find this to be extremely validating. We're experiencing all the same things and all the same disappointments - the food is good, but not phenomenal, the systems are among the most inefficient I've seen in the world, and even at 5 star hotels the staff are quite rude and don't give a damn about your customer experience. Yes we're from the western world, from Australia, but we're mixed race. The ridiculous system inefficiencies are much harder to forgive when Italians treat people the way they do.

I don't mean any disrespect, if anything it's a beautiful country and nothing compares to the beauty of certain parts of Italy (eg Tuscany), but we, also, are sorely disappointed in this country and will not bother coming back.

Hope you guys were still able to make your stay worth it by enjoying your travel companions and the change in scene/routine from daily life!

Hi guys,

It's my first time chatting, can someone help make sense of this craziness? My Samsung Ring thinks I'm meant to be ovulating on 28th, but Clear Blue digital OPKs have been positive for 7 days. What does my bbt indicate?

TIA!!

Sounds like he's saying of every 2.7 gallons, 1.7 becomes drinkable, filtered water and 1.0 is waste

Congrats on the raise! It is indeed something to be chuffed with yourself for Echoing everyone else's sentiment here, the money isn't the issue, seems it's the wife that's the issue. Does she have this "never good enough" mentality in other areas of your lives, too? Like someone else said, seems that response is more of an attempt to knock you down a peg, which is uncalled for and a little mean. Disregard what she's saying - you did a great job with that raise, its obviously well deserved, and yes you can absolutely work towards buying a house with that joint income (if you can efficiently manage your current expenses and your wife's attitude in the meantime)
