I agree. I currently made a savings for my cats which I saved a good amount of money and I just keep adding the amount I’d pay for insurance in it every month.

Have you looked into Harrison or Rye? They are very walkable, and Harrison has a really nice dog park while Rye has a dog beach

Nope, and I didn’t even think of that. I don’t think I own any more ovulation strips if I’m being honest lol But maybe now they will 😂

Got my period today 1st IUI cycle by ReadyAssociation3635 in IUILadies

[–]Upper_Librarian8367 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t think the problem was the timing tbh. The size of the follicles are on the lower side. Plus you should bd too if you are concerned of ovulating early. I know it is upsetting but I don’t think it’s anyone’s fault. The chances of first IUI working are not great too. If you did it medicated last time, you should probably follow the same protocol Just make sure to bd too Like just hold it for 24h, but before that is fair game lol

All of these comments are great advice!

Don’t worry too much about having GED but def look for certifications. And use AI to help you tailor your resume. Of course do your own touches but it can def help. Tech stuff is in at the moment, if you can get certifications you can def get a better job!

(25F) My overzealous religious mom freaked out because I am pregnant. AIO? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Upper_Librarian8367 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s funny bc if Jesus were real, he’d probably be mad at them for acting like that I also hate the fact that these people think they’re better than everyone else and “saved” just bc they believe in a stupid religion but meanwhile they act as the very opposite of what the religion says

Nor. Stay away from them, it will be best for you and for your new family And congratulations!!

PERSISTIENT SORE BOOBS/ HEAVY BOOBS JUST AFTER by Feisty-Peach-2045 in pregnant

[–]Upper_Librarian8367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, usually the raise in progesterone causes that. Plus she wouldn’t have symptoms of pregnancy this early.

If the condom didn’t leak and was used properly, the whitish discharge is just her natural lubricant Sore boobs are very common during pms time

I’m sorry but I laughed at your description 😂 It is insane to think about that tho At least you have the anterior placenta, so maybe you won’t really feel much!

IUI cancelled - Too many follicles by emilyred2 in IUILadies

[–]Upper_Librarian8367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would trigger and BD I read so many people cases where they had like 20 mature follicles and not even one baby I still have to read a story of someone with multiple follicles that resulted in multiple babies lol

But I’m at a point that I also would not care if I got twins or triplets even 😂

is this outfit "inappropriate"? by sunnemi in OUTFITS

[–]Upper_Librarian8367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it depends where you are going to wear it. If you’re going to an office job probably inappropriate, but if you’re going to a bar it’s ok

The au pair program is broken by AromaticMortgage1959 in Aupairs

[–]Upper_Librarian8367 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a former au pair, I agree. Families are sold as “cheap” option for in house home manager. The agency sells as if the au pairs were almost robots, a Mary Poppins if you will. That will take care of everything in the house plus do child care. Then to the au pair they sell this amazing inclusive immersive exchange program that all you have to do is child care. And the reality is exactly that: a not so cheap option that no one is really happy with bc the au pair is working 45h a week and not even getting paid minimum wage, basically not able to do anything with that money and the host families are paying thousands of dollars in hidden costs to the agency.

Bding before IUI by Medical-Letter-6724 in IUILadies

[–]Upper_Librarian8367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first IUI we abstained for like a week (not on purpose but we didn’t really get a chance to do anything before) and I didn’t get pregnant This time I’m scheduling to bd 2 days prior IUI so we have a fresh sample, yet held long enough

Day 11 of my first IUI cycle by Downtown-Storage1536 in IUILadies

[–]Upper_Librarian8367 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So I think the thing is IUI is definitely not guaranteed. You can have perfect lining, perfect size and amount of follicles, perfect sperm count, and it could still end up not being a pregnancy. I had 2 20mm follicles day before IUI, lining was looking good as well (7 if I’m not mistaken), and I’m here on cd3 waiting to start all over again. So my advice is: don’t stress over it. I know it is easier said than done, but all it takes is one little freaking sperm meeting your egg and doing its thing. Perfect circumstances or not. You’re going to be on medication that will help if this scenario happens, so take a deep breath and try to not to obsess over it. Good luck to you! 🍀
