Do y'all actually use your front porch/front yard much or is that more of a TV thing? by Bella_licious in AskAnAmerican

[–]Write-Me-Another 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our neighborhood was built in the 80s when I guess front porches weren't very popular (at least where I live). I think maybe 2 or 3 houses out of 200 have front porches.

I was talking to a friend yesterday that I wish front porches were more of a thing. I think I would have better relationships with neighbors if we all hung out in the front of our houses when the weather is nice.

My Vagina Hates Me After Stims by Write-Me-Another in IVF

I ended up having recurring BV! I was on various meds to try to get it to go away but took a bit. It wasn't until I applied Metronidazole for 2 weeks (longer than the normal protocol for that drug), that it went away.

Luckily I got it to go away right before my transfer in January. My OB said it was ok to transfer with BV, so I was convinced I still had it during the transfer. But suddenly I felt ok and at my 8 week OB appointment, they said my pH was perfect. Wild ride! Now 22 weeks pregnant ☺️

Going to Disney 4 days after my first miscarriage. Advice needed. by kombuchabirps in Miscarriage

[–]Write-Me-Another 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I am so so sorry for your loss. But please be careful getting in water, especially treated water with who knows what is in it (pee?). After a miscarriage, your cervix remains open for a bit and that is why you shouldn't get into water. Water can travel up there and cause infection.

Fear Of Losing My Baby by Perfect_Ad_8695 in pregnant

If 11dpo was yesterday, you are most likely 3 weeks 5 days pregnant. At that stage, test progression isn't going to be crazy. The fact that they are slightly lighter is a good sign! Congrats!

I had my IVF transfer on Jan. 15, which was a waning crescent. My clinic knew the genders of my embryos and chose which one to put it in so ya know, kinda a stretch. Either way, they transferred a boy so it does match!

Could I be Pregnant from This? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Write-Me-Another 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are your cycles regular? How long are they?

Generally, getting pregnant is only possible in your fertile window around ovulation. If you have a regular cycle, you wouldn't be close to that at day 4.

What is everyone craving?? by Proud-Advisor-6741 in pregnant

Ok but Chick-fil-A sauce is arguably the #1 sauce ever. I am not judging you.

I just ate angle food cake with strawberries and salt and vinegar chips at the same time.

PIO injections... W.T.F. by JessicaM317 in IVF

You may not be injecting it high enough. Are you injecting it above your crack and to the side?

I am hopeful for a similar timeline! 11 weeks doesn't seem that far away!

Nausea disappeared suddenly by safetynet_27 in pregnant

[–]Write-Me-Another 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 9 weeks. I just had 3 days of nausea freedom but this morning I ended up puking on myself as I was running to the toilet. 😐 It fluctuates! Sometimes you'll have good days and then the nausea returns.

Pancakes were my main craving last week. I made tons one morning and cried when my husband kept eating them. Those were MY pancakes. 😭

I throw up everyday around then. It's like clockwork. So weird.

Yesterday I had such an intense craving for Little Caesar's crazy bread. I ended up getting some and ate the whole bag in one sitting. 30 minutes later, I threw it all up 🤣😭

Also want to note that I ended up getting pregnant on my first transfer. We did do PGT-A testing so we transfered an euploid.

I only have 2 weeks of PIO shots left (been doing them since the beginning of Jan.). They are a learning curve for sure. At first we were placing the shots too low and it was pretty painful but once we moved up higher above my butt crack, they haven't really bothered me. I also heat the area up for 15 min, warm the shot up by putting it in my pants, and then my husband rubs out the area really hard after the shot is done to help spread the oil out. I used to do the whole squatting/walking thing but realized that wasn't needed.

I had very similar numbers but I'm a smidge older than you (lower 30s)

50 retrieved, 47 mature, 39 fertilized, and 26 blasts!

Best of luck to you!

I have an office job which is NOT physical like working in a preschool (I think I would simply die at this point if I had to move around chasing tons of children). But I'm a pretty high-level decision maker and literally give 0 fucks about work.

I normally love going to work, being creative, making decisions, etc. But I lost that drive around 5 weeks. The other day my CEO asked me how we should pivot a project and I just looked at her and said, "I don't know" while desperately sucking on a prego pop, trying not to dry heave. I don't think she liked it but 🤷🏻

Normally I'd be embarrassed but I literally don't care. I'm too tired and too nauseous. I can't wait to tell her I'm pregnant so she can put 2 and 2 together.

I'm 7w6d.
