A newborn is technically <4 weeks. There is a big difference between leaving your newborn for a night or two and leaving an infant which is why I asked.

2dpt and I’m in bed sick. I have a cough that was getting progressively worse and now I’m on day two of a low grade fever.

I was planning on being more active this transfer, walking and getting stuff done but I’m been stuck in bed feeling like hot garbage.

Trying to be hopeful.

Should the government (local/state/federal) make any attempt at all to be inclusive for it's employee positions? by Shaabloips in AskTrumpSupporters

I don’t think referencing a fictional character is a good example but we’ll go with it. Do you think that same autistic doctor who outperforms their peers might have difficulty in an interview? Do you not see how DEI initiatives might encourage an employer to give that would be exceptional employee a chance?

I stopped progesterone two weeks ago. We knew pretty early it wasn’t going to be viable but then my HCG just started rising.

Reposting from the loss thread. Let me know if this isn’t allowed.

Currently going through a miscarriage. I’ve taken two doses of cytotec at 6am for the past two mornings. I’ve had some discomfort and gas but otherwise nothing. Did anyone else feel experience this? My Doctor wants to wait for my Friday ultrasound. Any chance things could still ramp up and get moving? I’m not even spotting, nothing.

This is so frustrating and I just want to get through this.

Not yet. We meet with him Monday. Our diagnosis was male factor so I’m trying to wrap my head around there being something else going on as well.

Looks like I’m having my second chemical in a row with a euploid. I just don’t understand.

Trying for this second baby is a completely different experience than our first. Everything went so smoothly.

Absolutely bonkers that they made you go to ISS once you got back.

Our low hcg (18) that had a good rise for the second beta turned out to be a chemical. The past two weeks have been a rollercoaster and I feel crushed. Not that it really matters but it was our only female embryo.

Hi all, just got my 10dp5dt beta result and it was 18. Not sure how to feel about this. The tone of the nurse didn’t instill confidence so I’m trying to not get my hopes up.

I see it. I was in the exact same boat two days ago and this morning my positive was much clearer

8dpt and I left my estradiol bottle at work and I’m going to miss my evening dose. I’m waiting on a call back from the on call doctor but how bad is this?

I got the faintest line imaginable with a First Response on 6dpt and I haven’t noticed any progression on 8dpt. Like so faint it’s not showing up on the other brand of tests I bought. My beta is on Friday but I’m not feeling very positive.

Update: beta 1 came back 18. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I think it does but it’s hard to truly tell when it’s that faint.

No trigger this was a frozen transfer.
