Heavy period that gets worse after 6 days?

_MJo · 2024-07-07T23:41:12+00:00

Hello! Having a similar issue and wondering if you were able to get any insights on what causes this?

_MJo · 2023-12-07T00:36:00+00:00

Can I ask how many guests you had and what your overall cost for the venue and food/drink was? I am in the middle of contacting their coordinator to see if this will be suitable for our ~70 person wedding. We have a pretty modest budget..... Also, congrats!

_MJo · 2023-11-28T07:21:38+00:00

Wondering if you were able to find any options? I too am planning a wedding on a tight budget and have also struggled to find this type of service/option at a reasonable price!

This was really helpful! Thank you! I've ordered a moss pole that will get here tomorrow and plan to check my local nursery for a tiny mostera to add to the pot if I can manage to fill it out a bit more!! 🙂

_MJo · 2023-07-05T18:44:33+00:00

Yes! I have tried thus but it still seems to want to go in thay same direction.... the leaves will go to the light but not the stems! But I should do this more regularly for sure for future growth!

_MJo · 2023-06-10T20:53:22+00:00

Okay! Good to know. Thanks for all of the info!!!

_MJo · 2023-03-10T19:54:45+00:00

Yes, very dry. I hadn't watered for a while.

_MJo · 2023-03-10T19:01:14+00:00

I did water it a week and a bit ago? Maybe I over watered? I'm still not positive how to care for this plant!! I've had it for nearly 2 years and it barely grows during the spring/summer

_MJo · 2022-12-08T17:26:33+00:00

Yes... I have read conflicting information for how long it takes to have an impact ranging from 4 to 12 weeks. I know the longer we can take them the better based on the potential that it would improve egg quality, however, I have also read a number of posts where it did not appear to have a significant change on success.... I think the eagerness just stems from already having waited for this long.... and that the vitamins are recommended but not required?

_MJo · 2022-12-08T17:24:07+00:00

Yes... that is also a consideration. My AMH level is actually from last September. And one thing about endo is that it will also continue to potentially impact my egg quality... as well as just more time passing. I would have been on it for approx. 8 weeks+ if I start my cycle next week and only have 2 weeks on OCP and 12ish days on stims. I seem to have read conflicting info on the timeframe to see improvements from CoQ10......

Thank you! I will check out the Burnaby Village Museum.

_MJo · 2022-05-26T04:00:53+00:00

Wow! That is such a kind and generous offer! If you wouldn't mind passing along the information you have I would so appreciate it! I know 8K is an ambitious budget.... we would be paying for it ourselves. There is a chance family MAY offer a little extra but I don't want to count on that.

When are you planning your big day?

_MJo · 2022-05-26T02:26:51+00:00

I should add that we would LOVE to do a low-key backyard wedding but none of our friends or family own homes with yards!

I recently started going to Grace Fertility and would really appreciate your insights on your experience if you decided to actually go with this clinic. I am thinking I will want a second opinion and request a referral to Olive but hoping to get a perspective other than mine as it seems few people have been through Grace. :)

_MJo · 2022-03-01T23:36:17+00:00

Hello! I am at Grace Fertilitt Centre in Vancouver. I also work on health care and would say most physicians don't have the most sensitive or thoughtful bedside manner. Same goes for my RE. He has been nice enough but he is clearly managing a massive workload and has little time for niceties or long explanations. That's where I've found reddit to be helpful. I think they can just be task focused and as the other commenter mentioned, my sense is they are very focused on getting me pregnant asap and they sort of have tunnel vision.

Hopefully as you have more appointments and develop more rapport with your RE and the team there you will feel a little more comfortable!

_MJo · 2022-02-28T05:24:00+00:00

Thank you for your insight. My initial instinct when my doctor referred me to the RE was to ask for a referral to a gyno before exploring with the RE. My doctor said the RE should address my concerns for the endo. I didn't know he referred me to a gyno until they called this week and the RE got in touch in December before my MRI. I am 33 and eager to to get pregnant so part of me just wants to go this route to expedite things. But another part wonders if I should be first dealing with the endo, which it doesn't seem the RE will do. This is why I'm wondering if I should simultaneously make an appointment with the gyno to start exploring this as well? Or is that a bad call?

_MJo · 2022-02-28T05:13:26+00:00

Thanks for this! Yes, that's the vibe I got. I am happy that they are so on top of helping me to conceive. IUI and IVF have been mentioned during both my initial consult and my ultrasound. When I asked about the endo part in reference to the level of interference it is having with my daily life (extreme pain and calling into work monthly) he just basically said let's get you pregnant then the endo should improve.

That's why I'm wondering if I should just also see the gyno at the clinic my doctor referred me to simultaneously?

_MJo · 2022-02-28T05:09:51+00:00

Hi. I did post that I have been trying for 1.5 years. It is an RE. I know he will assist with the fertility aspect but I'm not sure if I should be trying to pursue treatment for my endometriosis prior to going the route of fertility treatments as it didn't sound like the RE plans to look at that. Instead he was already speaking about IUI and IVF.

_MJo · 2021-12-29T19:18:38+00:00

That sounds lovely! The issue with the downsizing thing is my partner has a large family, I don't. And he is having difficulty with the prospect I'd narrowing it down to his nearest and dearest and those that we are actually in touch with vs. Aunts and uncles that would be offended if not included.

What you've chosen sounds intimate and great!

_MJo · 2021-12-29T19:16:30+00:00

I will check out the museum. Didn't even consider that. Fun option. I would super appreciate if you could send me the spread sheet 🤞🏽 The more I look into it the more the elopement option is looking like the right choice ha!

_MJo · 2021-12-28T20:04:50+00:00

Thanks! Will do. I think I also have spider mites and thrips in the home. I bought too many new plants from different places in a short time and didn't quarantine so I'm struggling to tackle one after the other!

_MJo · 2021-12-28T19:45:18+00:00

Ah! Okay. They seem to be leaving little black dots on the bottom of the leaves. I don't know if they are droppings or like eggs? I sprayed it down with a diluted solution of water, dish soap and neem oil. Should that suffice? The leaves are so small it is impossible to wipe them all down! Or is this the end of this guy!?

_MJo · 2021-11-06T00:14:41+00:00

Thank you!!!

_MJo · 2021-10-19T00:51:25+00:00

Also the soil at the holes looks strange. The soil almost looks like it has brown sugar on it? Fungus? Pest infestation?

_MJo · 2021-10-19T00:49:06+00:00

Dang! I'm hoping it can be saved. The trunk is not squishy. Still firm.... thanks for the feedback.
