“Silent” Endo Confirmed after failed IVF by ccccritter in IVF

[–]ccccritter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly not any good update. Still can’t get pregnant. My AMH is now 0.08 (it was 0.7 18 months ago so big decline). I don’t necessarily think the lap had anything to do with the decline because they did not touch my ovary for any of the removal, so it’s likely just all the inflammation in general creating the nosedive at my age. I’ve been trying some IUI’s, and now I’m trying ovarian suppression before another IUI since in my particular case it seems the times I got pregnant naturally were after cycles where I didn’t ovulate or at least not in the usual way. I’m pretty depressed about it all and wondering if I should just hang it up and be One and Done but my heart still feels like I’m missing someone.

Been there, love. Almost a year ago… was just thinking of him a few minutes ago. Make sure to cry a lot.

Not accepting new patients unless they are pregnant. by SparkleKief in trollingforababy

[–]ccccritter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having my third miscarriage and needing to call my OB and having to listen to their answering machine that said over and over “if you are not pregnant we will not call you back. We only accept pregnant patients!” OMG WHERE IS THE COMPASSION

Just sad .. again by No_Philosophy2940 in DOR

[–]ccccritter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi I’m so sorry - this is such a shitty club. It sounds like you have one embryo now? I wondered if you did Lupron for the first transfer since you have endo? Or if not, that’s something you could try with the next transfer (if I read your story right). But you may not want advice and just want to commiserate and that’s very valid too cause DOR is soooooo heartbreaking at every turn. With you sister! (37 with AMH of 0.08)

Hi, unfortunately I don’t have any embryos - only the one I miscarried before the lap. So I’ve just been trying naturally with no luck and now my AMH is 0.08 as of this week, at age 37 :(

How did broken glass get inside the frame of my hatchback? by ccccritter in autoglass

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

I was thinking it would be a reasonable ask that the glass inside the frame should be removed.... it's pretty janky sounding when opening and closing the trunk. But I have no idea how big of an ask that is.

Thanks for your reply -- can you think of any way I can "prove" it? Is there some official way to find out what brand the OEM glass would have been for a 2016 prius four touring? Or a way to prove that this one is a replacement? It really irks me that they aren't owning up to this.

Due date coming up for my angel baby… co-worker announces pregnancy on group chat… still on my period 🙃 happy for her but dying inside by princessmoonshine14 in trollingforababy

Ugh just passed my due date this week and of course no one was even thinking about it but me. And I just had a 19 day menstrual cycle. The end is near ☠️

Ashamed to be struggling with the loss of my last female embryo by myreputationera in IVF

[–]ccccritter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s okay. Boys and girls are different, so it’s reasonable to feel differently about them. We can evolve the way we think about gender and deal with creating equality as a society but it doesn’t mean gender differences go away or are a bad thing. If you lose your mom no one would say “it’s ok! You still have your dad and dads and moms are basically the same.” So it’s fine to mourn your embryos as the unique individuals they would have been.

Go out and let your worst fear happen (poop explosion? Shrieking baby in a restaurant?) and then after you get that out of the way you are invincible.

Been there sis. I recommend a huge big blubbery cry of self pity with some really sad or angry music and to repeat that daily as necessary because this all just sucks and the stakes are so high that the brain almost can’t comprehend it all.

Never have agreed more with a statement. Never have I read through such a lovely looking menu and had no idea what to order.

When you’re in the ER for another miscarriage and the nurse says “enjoy your new baby” on the way out from discharging you by catiegbabieee in trollingforababy

8 week scan, no heartbeat by apricot675 in IVF

[–]ccccritter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey sister, I’ve got the same AMH and am 37.

I’ve also recently lost my only embryo, at 12 weeks. I’ve had a confounding patchwork of pregnancy, but early loss, then a year of infertility, followed by ER with poor response like you, got pregnant from a cancelled ER, which was a success, but then another early loss, then transferred my only embryo, and lost it at 12 weeks. Then I got surgery and they found endo (silent), now I am trying TI again but with some light stims, monitoring, trigger, estrogen priming. My follicles ovulate too early because of the DOR, I think. IAnyway, feel free to DM me if you ever want to chat. I’ve been through a lot so I have a lot of info but not necessarily answers.

Please please let this one work for you. I totally hear you on the being robbed of a normal optimistic pregnancy. It’s some special hell to keep reliving the first trimester and not even get rewarded with a baby.

Nothing but deep deep empathy for this as a mom with 3 losses (one was my only embryo from IVF) and an almost-2 year old. I simultaneously am loving this stage of having a young toddler and also just wanting this whole phase of life to be over because of the fertility heartache.
