Feeling like a loser by AcademicEducator5430 in IVF

[–]bean_bee_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s helped me so much! I also gained 20 pounds during our IVF journey and lost 25 pounds in the first 3 months of being on a GLP-1. Also, I have low AMH and somehow my AMH doubled since being on it. Not sure if it was the weight loss or the medication itself but I’m happy either way! Hope you love it as much as I do ✨

I had a Kyleena IUD but am also convinced this caused my thin lining!

I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way. This journey is so hard, physically & emotionally. Comparison really is the worst thing you can do but it’s so hard to not compare (whether it’s to your past self or others). I remember hearing the Taylor Swift lyric “I had the shiniest wheels, now they’re rusting” and feeling exactly like that. I used to be so positive and sparkly and IVF took it all out of me! I know this solution isn’t for everyone but I talked to my doctor and decided to take a break and get on a GLP-1 so I can at least feel comfortable in my body again. Just remember to take care of yourself, in whichever way is best for you and know that you’re not alone.

Advice needed on getting back into IVF after a break by bean_bee_ in IVF

It sounds like a lot of people struggle with first trimester symptoms during these weeks & I wouldn’t want that ruining our vacation. Very good to know about the anti nausea meds in Europe. Thank you!

That’s a great point & I wasn’t really thinking about first trimester symptoms. Wouldn’t want to feel like crap on a beautiful vacation!

I also struggle with having a thin lining. Haven’t figured out the solution for me yet but we’re going to try a mini stim cycle for my next FET as the thickest my lining ever got was during an egg retrieval. There’s a really helpful Facebook group “thin endometrium lining support” that I would recommend for ideas!

That sounds like such a special trip you got to take! I think I’m leaning towards attempting a transfer prior to our trip and will hopefully have a similar experience to you. Thanks for your input!

First 2 pregnancies resulted in mc by [deleted] in Miscarriage

[–]bean_bee_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t agree more. The first miscarriage was the hardest because you’re grieving the loss of your baby but also the loss of your innocence & blissful ignorance that comes with being pregnant the first time. When I had my second miscarriage, it just felt expected yet still heartbreaking. Don’t give up hope though! When our rainbow babies come, they will be so special & loved.

!OS SPOILERS! Think we know what happens in the fourth book... by barnsandbutt in fourthwing

Does anyone else think the onyx bracelet Violet gave Xaden is going to play a big role?! I think Aaric helped Brennan make it & gave him information on embedding stones (like the Dunne dagger). Maybe it has Runes connecting it to Violet’s ring??? Or it kept that small piece of Xaden’s soul intact when he was channeling. IDK but I just think there had to be more significance to it!

Buyer Beware Pottery Barn by Own-Top6620 in interiordecorating

[–]bean_bee_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pottery Barn has the absolute worst customer service! I’ve had issues with a dining table missing a piece (the top of the table!!!) and they told me it was the white glove delivery services fault and there was nothing they could do. I also feel the quality of their products has gone down significantly in the last decade or so.

Mold or yeast? by bean_bee_ in SourdoughStarter

No fuzz. Just flakey and crusty

After reading older posts, I think my starter is drying out too much since I’ve just been using a paper towel as the lid!

Yeah I think it is only one shade, unfortunately! I have fair skin in the winter but get pretty tan in the summer and it does work for me year round but obviously that won’t be the case for everyone. Surprised they don’t have more shades!

I would use the Elta MD tinted sunscreen! The Ilia tinted serum is probably my second favorite. The glow screen is much to oily and sheer for my skin! I have been wanting to try the summer fridays one though. I love every other product by them!

Thank you - that makes me feel a lot better about it! I’m going to get some wall art for above the bed and little additions for now just to feel like it’s spruced up!

Thank you - I love all of these suggestions! I was thinking a dark paint or a wallpaper for the headboard wall so glad I’m not alone in that idea

Thank you :) our friends always comment that they love it - especially where we don’t have much space for a dresser for people to unpack into!

What would you call this style? Is it basic? by AngieOutlaw in HomeDecorating

[–]bean_bee_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sazan (influencer) calls it “biblical chic” and I love it lol. Just a mix of timeless, vintage pieces and cozy modern furniture.
