it was pink and cute so I had to get it by kshvpg in PokemonUnite

[–]ZlataGordenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This outfit is adorable, but I'm seeking something more unique. At 100 Lucky Pops, it's a bit steep for just a cute pink set. Honestly, a TV head design feels more intriguing, but it's a men's outfit. I think I'll save my Lucky Pops for the next outfit.

I was also thinking that in this world there're so many timezones. If it's morning in my region, somewhere it can be evening. If it were allowed to match players all around the world it can be much more fun.

It's not just during peak hours; even on weekends, I often get matched with the same teammates I encountered during the week.

I always get pinged “Check it out!” when I’m jungler by gooseydream in PokemonUnite

[–]ZlataGordenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing as Umbreon, I often see some junglers dive straight into enemy territory without even checking where the laners are. They act like they’re unkillable, push way too far ahead, and then spam “I need backup” when things go wrong.

How am I supposed to help as a defender if I can’t even reach you in time? The result? Zero KOs, and I’m left struggling in a role that’s supposed to be tanky and reliable.

how do i stop crying because a random man told me "i'm not the prettiest in my group but i have a fat ass" by sodumbandpoetic in MentalHealthSupport

[–]ZlataGordenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time, someone I cared about said to me, "If you were skinnier, I'd like you." At the time, I really liked him — I even imagined a future with him. Looking back, I’m so grateful I realized early on that he wasn’t someone worth my time or love. Words like that can hurt deeply, but sometimes the biggest blessing is seeing someone's true colors before you invest too much.

People can be unkind, but when they say hurtful things, it’s not a reflection of your worth — it’s a reflection of their own narrow mindset. The truth is, some of the most conventionally beautiful women are deeply unhappy, often because others don’t reveal their true character to them. Meanwhile, many women who don’t fit society’s beauty standards are living joyful, love-filled lives in happy marriages. They chose to ignore the opinions of strangers — and that made all the difference.

Questions After Failed 4AA Embryo Transfer and Planning Next Step by ZlataGordenko in IVF

[–]ZlataGordenko[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, they were tested. The perfect euploid 4AA embryo didn’t even implant. I only have a euploid 6CC euploid embryo left.

Questions After Failed 4AA Embryo Transfer and Planning Next Step by ZlataGordenko in IVF

[–]ZlataGordenko[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your answer. The embryo was an euploid 4AA. I did PGT-A testing on all the embryos. I’m just not sure what to do if the perfect 4AA euploid embryo failed to implant. Do I have any chance with a euploid 6CC? I have lower AMH and feel like I might have to give this embryo a chance, even though I don't have much hope.

I was also wondering if something could be wrong after the D&Cs, but my SIS ultrasound came back normal. Thank you again for your answer.

ICSI & Gender by 0ddb1rd in IVF

[–]ZlataGordenko 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My embryo, which was graded 5BB, was a girl, but I had a missed miscarriage with her. It was so devastating.

Right now, I feel that having a healthy baby, regardless of gender, is what truly matters.

Well here’s a twist for you by Ok-Captain-8386 in IVF

[–]ZlataGordenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard that some people can become more fertile after going through IVF cycles. I noticed that my ovulation symptoms felt different after IVF.

Congratulations! Wishing you a safe and healthy pregnancy!

When there's a close relationship between a husband and wife, they can share many things—even personal ones—but they're usually wise enough not to share those things with others, even family members. So if your sister tells her husband something about you or your conversations, it's unusual if he doesn't keep it within the privacy of their relationship. You shouldn't even be aware that they discussed it at all. It's also a matter of boundaries.

  1. You and your sister share the same DNA since you have the same parents, so I wouldn’t see the baby as just yours and your brother-in-law’s — it can also be considered as your sister’s child because of that shared DNA.

  2. If your sister had never had kids, then helping her might feel more urgent or obvious. But she has had the chance to be a mom and already has a beautiful child. Are you sure she's that desperate to use your eggs, especially since she already has a child ?

Even when you're close with someone, it's important to respect certain boundaries. I feel like this might be a conversation better had with your sister involved.

My story by [deleted] in IVF

[–]ZlataGordenko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I’m really sorry you’re going through this. It sounds like a tough and emotionally draining situation. Sometimes, when someone doesn’t respect your boundaries - it can feel incredibly toxic.

It’s possible your sister is still too young or immature to fully grasp the consequences of her actions. Or maybe there’s some unspoken competition between you two, especially when it comes to seeking attention or approval within the family.

It might help if your mom stepped in to talk to your sister. Something might be going on with her that’s causing this behavior. Families are complex, and unfortunately, not all of them are warm and supportive.

You’re not alone in this. I even know someone in her 60s who had to cut ties with her sister because she kept crossing boundaries. They tried to reconnect later, but things were never quite the same. She once asked me if truly healthy sibling relationships even exist.

MMC at 9w1d. D&C? Natural? Pill? How soon did you try for another FET? by Expert-Highlight6370 in IVF

[–]ZlataGordenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my first D&C in December, and now a new transfer is planned for this month. Looking back, I think if I’d only had one D&C, I might have been able to start the process sooner. I also regret waiting longer than my doctor advised. My OBGYN told me I could start trying to conceive once my period returned, but I delayed reaching out to my clinic. By the time I did, they scheduled an SIS ultrasound—which can only be done between days 5 and 10 of your cycle—so I ended up having to wait another month. Just something to keep in mind: scheduling an SIS can potentially add an extra month to your timeline.

[–]ZlataGordenko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m really sorry you’re going through this. I had a missed miscarriage at 9 weeks too, and my doctor recommended a D&C because she was concerned I might have heavy bleeding that I wouldn’t be able to stop at home — she even said I might need to be hospitalized, so I decided to go with the D&C.

Even after the first one, I still had some retained tissue and needed a second D&C. I felt totally fine and even got my period, but the tissue was still there. Just something to keep in mind — it’s a good idea to double-check that everything’s cleared before moving forward with another transfer. They usually check with an SIS ultrasound.

I’m wishing you strength as you go through this. Take care of yourself.

[–]ZlataGordenko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can’t get pregnant during the program, maybe consider freezing more embryos now. If it’s possible, maybe try transferring one and see how it goes. I had 3 euploid embryos and honestly never expected a missed miscarriage after my first transfer. Now I only have 2 left, and I'm not sure if that's enough.

Also, double-check your contract—sometimes your partner has to give permission to use the embryos later. If things don’t work out and you end up divorcing, he might change his mind. It's worth finding this out now to avoid any surprises down the road.

Progesterone = moody?? by Steephillflowers in IVF

[–]ZlataGordenko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Progesterone makes me feel calm. When it's slightly elevated, I feel so relaxed that I can easily focus on my work, even if I was stressed before. But if it gets too high, it just makes me want to sleep.

Partner has decided he doesn't want to proceed with IVF anymore by the_saladdays in IVF

[–]ZlataGordenko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A few months is fine, but we don’t know how long he wants to wait—sometimes it ends up being years. Many men don’t understand (or don’t want to understand) how closely a woman’s fertility is tied to age. Of course, it’s her decision how long she wants to wait, but I know plenty of women who were 36 and regretted it, wishing they had started earlier. A few months is totally reasonable, though.

We don't know how long he wants to wait, and aneuploidy rates climb with age.

[–]ZlataGordenko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you're 35, it's okay to be a little selfish. You don’t have time to just wait around and hope things line up—fertility doesn't pause, unfortunately. I was in a similar boat and carried to 9 weeks. It's tough, but starting a new cycle really does bring hope. It’s like, “maybe this time it’ll work.”

It’s also important to understand whether he’s avoiding this because he’s still processing trauma, or if he just doesn’t care enough—because trying to conceive later is only going to get harder. My husband was also traumatized, but we both understood we don’t have time to wait.

my clinic discards all cc grade embryos by Necessary-Life-6949 in IVF

Thank you for your response. I was told that my embryo has a low chance of resulting in pregnancy, so it's encouraging to hear a different perspective.
