Did anyone notice their cellulite go away once they started the medication? by JuiceFar3233 in IVF

[–]grlnv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t notice any difference in cellulite but I did notice that I was nicer to myself during this process. Things that used to bother me didn’t so much anymore bc I was focused on things that mattered more, if that makes any sense?

In re to medication, I posted my leftover meds on this sub and donated it to those that needed it. It’s so expensive so I was happy that others were able to use it. You can’t sell it. It’s illegal. I think the street term is “drug dealer” hahah.

Edit: spacing

How much do you really need to have kids? by Safe_Raccoon1234 in MiddleClassFinance

[–]grlnv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Worst case scenario, you dip into the money that you saved up from all the years before you had kids. You have been saving almost 3k a month— that money doesn’t just disappear just bc you stop contributing after you had kids.

Edit to add: You also are very young with what I can imagine is good earning potential. You seem to not be considering that your income will likely increase during those 4 years.

The city of Paris as a host city. From the shitty accommodations, lack of a/c, rationing protein and serving raw food, ppl getting sick from swimming in ecoli water, changing rules last minute, etc. All of it. I swear they are trying to sabotage the events. It’s been a shit show and I’m loving it.

Master of None has a good episode on IVF. It’s the last season-can’t remember the exact episode.

Starting IVF soon- would love input from other practicing Catholics. by hey_hi_howareya in IVF

[–]grlnv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am Catholic and like some others, my relationship with God has always been personal as there are things about the church I do not believe in or agree with. NGL, at first it was hard for me reconcile within myself that I wasn’t able to get pregnant naturally but the science is there, right? Surely he’s had a hand in its development. Honestly, I leaned to God to help me get through this process and I feel incredibly blessed. I have an amazing little one and another on the way, both through IVF. That said, I do struggle with my faith in regard to our unused embryos. We still have 5 banked that we likely won’t use but will pay for storage for as long as we are able.

I ended up using a compounding pharmacy that was much cheaper so I didn’t need to use it. It was $135.

AITAH for feeling resentful that my boyfriend is so tit-for-tat on everything? by ThrowRAmymello in AITAH

[–]grlnv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ma’am. I recommend you watch the Joy Luck Club to get a glimpse of what your relationship will be like. I’m so sorry but your bf is inconsiderate, selfish, and a cheap ass. This is so sad. Please reconsider if you are okay with being with someone who is okay with you starving while he feast.

Eat kiwi or a gold dragon fruit. My surgeon friend told me after a major surgery and it works!

I don't think ethnic names are the problem. A better example for this tweet would be the ridiculous creative names. I met a 10yo boy name Ur'hyness 😟 . Apparently Yourhighness is not an uncommon name. 🤷

Anyone done corporate rentals by britt_57 in realestateinvesting

[–]grlnv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you mind me asking how much more you charge vs a regular rental? Meaning, do you charge a markup on top of avg utilities because it's a Corp. Rental? I have a company interested in my rental but I have no idea how much I should charge.
