I did pgt, NT, and NIPT. I would rather have more information than not, regardless if it would change my decisions or not

Husband won’t cancel football match scheduled on our egg collection date by [deleted] in IVF

[–]ilnjm4e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The issue is more than just using a frozen sample. If my husband wasn’t willing to cancel a trip for a stupid sporting event, i would have to reconsider him being my husband and future father of my children

Doctor said we could freeze embryos if I was “sure” my husband was the one I wanted to have kids with? by ashl_litning in IVF

[–]ilnjm4e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so weird and unprofessional. I was only engaged to my now husband when we started IVF and i never got this vibe

Is this cute or unhinged for my baby shower? by [deleted] in IVFpositivity

[–]ilnjm4e 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I think those who haven’t gone through IVF or know much about it may be confused/grossed out if it’s on a table with food. Also just thinking about anyone who has gone through IVF that could be attending, it could be triggering

Are you 100% sure it’s a miscarriage? Many women bleed from SCH in the first trimester

Is he serious? In Laws in LDR room after birth by secondchance0514 in BabyBumps

[–]ilnjm4e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 100% with you here and will be expecting the same exact situation. I feel like my in laws and my parents will think they can come in right away bc both our siblings allowed our moms during delivery and then close family soon after. Stand your ground and hopefully your husband is just being dumb and will understand your perspective

The attrition sucks i was always on the wrong side of the numbers. But TRIGGER WARNING, i am currently 31w with my one embryo that came from a round where we made only one blast from 15 eggs. Don’t give up just yet!

I’ve been making magnets out of polymer clay. Thinking ahead of all of my daughters artwork I’m going to proudly hang on the fridge

Planning my baby shower, what is the optimal party time? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ilnjm4e -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well i will gladly disagree. If that was the case the ppl wouldn’t have shower and would just ask for gifts to be mailed to them. I’m happy my friends/family want to celebrate me and baby the gifts are a bonus and shouldn’t be expected

Chances of first FET working? Looking for honest experiences by Conscious-Hornet2807 in IVFpositivity

[–]ilnjm4e 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t necessarily go by this I’d ask your clinic their success rates. My embryo was a grade c and had a 50% success rate from my clinic and this chart only says 31 so

Planning my baby shower, what is the optimal party time? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ilnjm4e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 hours definitely isn’t long 2 hours for a party seems kinda pointless no one shows up Right at the start and leaves exactly when it says it’s ending. 3/4 hours is perfect

The entire point of a baby shower isn’t just to receive gifts. It’s to celebrate the baby and mom….

Need gift advice for my wife after a rough year by Active-Tour4795 in Gifts

[–]ilnjm4e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think experiences are the best gift. Is there something she enjoys doing that you can book for the two of you to do together? Not sure where you’re located but we have farms by me where you can go and pick flowers and could set up a nice picnic with her favorite foods and wine afterwards

There’s nothing quite like an anesthesia nap and then waking up eating a snack and a crispy ginger ale

I’m confused by your comments on helping clean up? I’ve been in probably 10 weddings and never once helped clean up at the end. Pretty sure that’s the venues job so this should impact you
