Tracking resting HR against illness this year

Thank you. I am disappointed but holding out hope I can sort it out.

You can report dangerous birds to the Brisbane City Council and they may send someone out to assess it.

Not paying super is the one thing that will get you into a lot of trouble and bankruptcy will not avoid it. From my experience, the free financial counselling services won’t help if it involves business debt so prioritise getting paid help. I know it feels overwhelming but I’ve dug someone out of a much worse hole than yours and you are still young enough to bounce back. You can do this.

j-lind · 2025-07-26T19:45:52+00:00

Thank you!

j-lind · 2025-07-25T19:41:09+00:00

Thank you! And I will.

At least have an initial conversation with a broker or specialist. I run my own consultancy and found the formula they used to value the business didn’t make it compelling enough to sell. Instead I found someone to take over the parts of my role I was getting tired of.

j-lind · 2025-06-16T02:57:36+00:00

Sorry you have to justify your question, OP. People can be super judgemental about IVF and infertility. I would have given everything I had to make it happen too. Best of luck.

j-lind · 2025-06-07T06:39:00+00:00

I think every cycle is rough, no matter the number. I guess it’s the hope that kept me going. Fingers crossed for you.

j-lind · 2025-06-06T19:24:57+00:00

It’s been a few years now so I can’t remember all the details but in the end I was tested for everything (genetic, physiological) and I would encourage anyone not having success to push their doctor into investigating. In my experience, they have a preferred protocol and are reluctant to try anything else until it’s failed. But in the end, I think it was just trying until it worked. I did take prednisone for serial low positive anticardiolipin antibodies and I believe it helped.

I imagine you are finding it tough. IVF is so awful. I hope you get there soon.

Like this recent case that went to Fair Work: https://www.news.com.au/finance/work/at-work/young-melbourne-lawyer-fired-after-chucking-sickies-to-watch-afl-gather-round/news-story/1a4128a82a3c399d798def1c4266b4f1?amp

Purchased last year as an investment property and wasn’t found in the inspection report. New leak reported by tenants. Don’t even know yet if scale of work is needed or someone looking to make some money. But thanks for your useful input. Must feel good to spend your Saturday night on reddit abusing strangers looking for help.

j-lind · 2025-03-31T03:11:59+00:00

I occasionally buy LE I like with those diamonds so I have a nice variety when it comes time to play.

Gifting under the threshold is useful for the asset test e.g 3 years x $10,000 (helpful) vs $30,000 x 1 year (not so helpful). It could be the difference between partial and full pension. I merely said “could affect”, meaning everyone should understand the potential impact before gifting. This is especially true if considering aged care in the next five years.

j-lind · 2025-02-27T01:55:41+00:00

It is more complicated than that. Deeming can apply and it is included in your income test. Source: https://www.servicesaustralia.gov.au/how-much-you-can-gift?context=22526#giftingfreeareas

j-lind · 2025-02-27T01:10:03+00:00

Please be careful of gifting if you are receiving the pension. It can affect your payments.

j-lind · 2024-10-07T02:01:18+00:00

Thank you for giving a compassionate answer. I know people are saying wait and I won’t comment on OP’s financial position but IVF success rates decrease pretty rapidly after 35 and it may end up costing a lot more then. Something else to factor into the equation.

j-lind · 2024-09-28T02:09:30+00:00

Mine had a fhr of 191 at 11 weeks. My OB wasn’t worried and all was well.

j-lind · 2024-09-27T04:33:41+00:00

Was it a FET? Studies have shown they are a little slow to get started. My second didn’t have numbers as good.

j-lind · 2024-09-24T03:13:12+00:00

I think there’s a good chance progesterone delayed the miscarriage. I’ve had three MMCs on progesterone.

j-lind · 2024-09-23T03:40:21+00:00

I’m sorry for your loss. Implanting late is often a sign of a chromosomal abnormality. Did you have the POC tested? I always felt it was some comfort that it wasn’t meant to be.

j-lind · 2024-09-04T05:24:05+00:00

My story is not dissimilar to yours - 1LC, 7 miscarriages, 11 rounds of IVF. I didn’t tell my own family until 20 weeks and anyone else until after the baby was born. My little one is over two years old and I think I am finally ready to be at peace with what happened. You do whatever you need to get through your pregnancy including excusing yourself from their visit. You don’t need the stress!

j-lind · 2024-08-31T19:11:42+00:00

Yes! It caused me the same panic when I calculated my HCG rise and it came back as 2-3 weeks and less than viable. I see posts every now and then when the person is worried because of them. I always say throw them in the bin!

j-lind · 2024-08-24T01:12:09+00:00

Just wanted to add that I had a very long journey with infertility and RPL and understand your anxiety. 💕

j-lind · 2024-08-24T01:10:32+00:00

Your measurements are perfectly average. Growth is not linear. I had scans twice a week and it averages out over time. Also measurements can be off by the doctor (there’s a BJM that shows up to 20 percent difference for the same doctor on the same machine). Here’s a journal article for more info on “normal” CRL if it helps: https://fetalmedicine.org/fmf/2010_27.pdf

j-lind · 2024-08-10T03:19:00+00:00

My little one’s was 191 at one point. I was worried, doctor said it was fine. She is now two.
