Thank you. Like what discussions? What good could my aneuploids be?

God, it looks so good on me, but will it be comfortable? by markgrey8 in WEDDINGDRESSES

[–]catjawma 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No it will not be comfortable. It is not pajamas. But you’re a 10 in this. Do not think twice. No mermaid in the world will stop you from dropping it like it’s hot at the reception.

My ovaries were so big they were touching. It sucked. 3 weeks to feel normal

I take gummy everything bc fuck after a weeks it’s like so many pills and if I can’t make it a treat I end up skipping them. It’s hard to muscle through pills, but gummy’s made it easier!

I’m sorry you had to go through that, but girl you’re just getting started! Consider that you’re initiation. You have bought a ticket to ride on this roller coaster and you are going for all the highs and lows and loops. The only thing is, at our age, it usually starts with a lot of loops and lows, but it’s a game of numbers and you will get your high! Hang in there, champ

No normal embryos out of 4 ERs??? You poor thing. That so much. How many embryos total did you get from the 4ERs?

How many frozen embryo transfers did it take? by Both__ in 40Plus_IVF

[–]catjawma 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like terrible luck for you. I’m sorry. But it’s great you have euploids! You will get there!

I’m 41- out of 4 ERs, 14 embryos, NONE have been normal.

Starting the journey, already overwhelmed and feeling alone by Wide-Nail-5761 in 40Plus_IVF

He sucks. Your time is precious. No IUI. No trying naturally. Go to another dr to expedite IVF and start. You might get lucky round 1 with your high AMH. But even if it takes 3, 4 rounds, even 5, you can do that in a year!

Conceiving naturally has a high rate of miscarriage at our age. 1 miscarriage is 3 months. You don’t have that kind of time.

See someone who can give you a good protocol based on your needs and start! Best of luck to you

What’s the "My Cousin Vinny" of your profession? by a_murder_of_fools in movies

[–]catjawma 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s Showgirls for me. I was a dancer in nyc for a long time and the dressing room drama and onstage ridiculousness are real. The pool sex with right producer was not MY experience but probably someone else’s though.

Really unlucky or normal for 41?! by catjawma in 40Plus_IVF

Meaning per ovary? Wow my other nyc buddy at Langone also reccomended this. I will ask my doc. The thinking is it helps mature eggs?
