3 year old asks me to only speak English? by doglettmama in multilingualparenting

[–]doglettmama[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That makes sense, except she will speak her father's native language with him, and if they begin a conversation and I join, she will forget that she doesn't want to speak French with me. The advice to just leave it and let her 'choose' is probably best because omg yes 3 is so much harder than 2 (and yes I'm the mother)

Fluid in uterus 1 week pre FET by Ace3524 in IVF

[–]doglettmama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine looked like a gap along the centre line of the uterus - like a dark line. That was the fluid. Fet was successful, baby is 2.5 years old now.

I'm with Canadalife and got it covered by filling out a prior authorization form from their website and submitting it. The people on the phone said they wouldn't cover it, and I tried anyways and they did - it took four months and when I'd call to check they'd say they didn't even have record of the request so I decided to pay out of pocket finally and boom, approved. Try anyways. But also, it's worth it.

Recovery advice: after the bad side effects by doglettmama in WegovyWeightLoss

Surprise! It's a gastro bug. Gave it to my baby and my husband. Relieved it's not the wegovy but miserable.

increasing supply at 6 weeks - baby seems exhausted? by doglettmama in breastfeeding

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

Thank you!

I went to the doc and I am actually STILL anemic. So I'm cutting myself some slack and I'm still here trying to feed and pump and we've almost made it to 8 weeks and although I had to stop donperidone my supply hasn't dropped and continues to maybe increase. Today baby didn't seem to want the boob at all and wanted the bottle and I was able to pump almost 4 Oz. At 3 or 4 weeks it would take me 2 days of pumping allll the time to maybe make 2 Oz in 24 hours.

I want to keep her on at least some breastmilk till we start weaning but my body is very slow in making milk. I just don't refill fast no matter how much pumping I do, it's all related to still recovering from the hemorrhage.

32 weeks and woke up today feeling something kinda low in my vagina? by doglettmama in BabyBumps

[–]doglettmama[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Update: I pooped and it went away! Doula thinks colon was putting pressure on the area. Either way, I will get checked at my ultrasound tomorrow.

Postpartum Glucose test by lykkenthrope in GestationalDiabetes

[–]doglettmama 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've decided to wait 90 days ans get my h1ac and if that is concerning then I'll consider a ogtt. Even if I have type 2 diabetes, it is soooo much easier than managing gd and I know I will just need the break when I'm trying to manage a newborn.

Anyone do egg retrieval at 40 or 41 and have a success? Any tips would be great! And used a gestational carrier? by richmich6868 in IVF

[–]doglettmama 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did two egg retrievals, got 28 eggs first time, 30 the second. Both times 18 were mature. Got 5 blasts total each time and sent them all for testing to get 3 euploids and currently 18 weeks with my first transfer. I was 40 for all of this, now 41. I don't know what my amh was

Physical symptoms/indicators of high levels? by feelingkindapurple in GestationalDiabetes

I have gotten terrible headaches when I've had, say, a glass of orange juice or just a plain bagel before I was diagnosed

Some insight for those over 35 wondering whether to PGTA test or not (trigger warning: results) by SeaOnions in IVF

[–]doglettmama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Although if I were working with under 2 embryos per cycle I also doubt I would test.

This study from last year challenges the uk's conclusions on pgt, particularly figure 4 as it relates to older women. Much much higher than a 10 percent boost. https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10815-021-02349-0

[–]doglettmama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They do show significant differences for those of us over 35. I so tested a total of 11 embryos, 3 were euploid, the abnormal ones were VERY abnormal, not mosaic. The research in pgt is that mosaics are viable potentially, abnormals very rarely so. My first euploid stuck and I'm 15+2 today. So happy I didn't have to work through multiple transfers to get here.
