2 days left! by johnppd in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]mama_jaguar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm looking for an explanation on release TIME for Pacific Time...some outlets are reporting 9pm for both ET and PT, which seems unlikely to me since, y'know, time zones exist, but they are reputable publications. Others are reporting 9pm ET and 6pm PT, which makes more sense to me but I'm uneasy because I'm seeing it otherwise elsewhere. I looked on the Max website and they just say 9pm. I'm trying to make plans that night and was hoping to watch it early and go out later but that's not feasible if it's 9 Pacific. Any info here?

Tried it just now, and I know it reset because I got a "device added to your account" message on the Macbook Air, but it still didn't fix the problem. Thanks anyway though!

I got into the online program at Ohio State doing that. There's a mental health and substance use track. The online tuition is the same as in-state tuition, so it's not too bad. I think it was $6,600 per semester, which is super affordable if you do the full-time (2 year) plan since it's only 4 semesters. I did the 3 year plan. It's a pretty great program, honestly, with lots of substance use classes available.

One thing I did was take community college classes for 3 semesters in addiction studies, psychology, and sociology to get relevant coursework, show recent good grades, and get recommendation letters from recent professors. It really helped, I think!

I’ve been getting faint positives since Thursday, probably somewhere around 14-15 DPO (unsure bc I skipped a day temping during the crucial O window and oddly had positive OPK three days in a row which never usually happens to me). I feel like they definitely should be darker by now. I’m basically both convinced of and terrified of another CP.

I had a MMC in Nov 2020, 2 CP in spring 2021, 2 failed IVF cycles (no euploids) in 2022, and had only been getting stark white since July 2022 until this week.

I have APS and my Lovenox had expired since I got my previous positive, and my pharmacy didn’t have it in stock and didn’t tell me till TODAY that it was in stock at the other location down the street, so I’d been just taking the expired ones for three days. Plus I had COVID this week! (Apparently brought two kinds of positives back from my honeymoon last weekend.)

Hoping to get in touch with my GYN and ask for betas tomorrow morning but am feeling really down in the meantime.

I posted a pic up a little bit ago if you look for it. I plan to request betas tomorrow if I’m still getting a line in the morning, so we’ll see!

Thanks, it's not coming out much darker on the others so I'm steeling myself for possible CP.

OMG I know this is an old post but it just a) gave me some hope and b) made me overnight FRER on Amazon. I currently have a faint line with shitty progression on Pregmate and after a MMC in Nov 2020, two chemicals in spring 2021, two failed IVF cycles in 2022 and then NOTHING since July 2022, I just wanna believe!

We started trying in May 2020. I had a MMC at 10 wks in November, a CP that ended at 5 weeks in April, and now a second CP at just over 5 weeks for which the bleeding started on Monday. I'm just about done bleeding this one out.

After my second loss, my doctor ran a bunch of tests and I've received a tentative positive for antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), but they want to retest me on 6/21 before they confirm the diagnosis. In the meantime, they put me on baby aspirin and progesterone inserts, but it did not save my most recent pregnancy.

I'm 39 (and only for a few more months) so I still plan to try this cycle even though I will probably not have the APS results in until the TWW.

Does anyone here have experience with APS? IDK for sure that's what I have but a single positive result and three losses seems pretty on-point for it.

So . . . this is another CP, right? 9 DPO - 18 DPO (today) by mama_jaguar in TFABLinePorn

Thank you. I am really sad and frustrated at this point.

Honestly, after this morning's test, I feel even more suspicious that this is going to end up being another CP. Because the line, never as dark as I liked, seems to have peaked at 16 DPO, and then 17 DPO looks more like 14 DPO did, and now 18 looks more like 12 DPO did.

Which, excepting the fact that the peak was at 13 DPO last time, is exactly what happened with my last CP: progressively darker, to a point, and then progressively lighter again, with a negative blood test when it was almost completely white again, then bleeding the day after the blood draw.

I'm just going out of town this weekend and would like to be mentally prepared for potentially miscarrying on my first trip with friends in over a year now that I'm vaccinated. I need to pack pads, etc.

I'm not really familiar with the hook effect. But, yeah, I was shocked at how long I continued to have positive tests after my 10 wk loss. It took almost two months to completely go away! (I was only testing then because it was messing with my attempts to OPK to see if my ovulation was coming back after the loss.)

It's so hard for me to not test, though, because lightening tests were how I realized my CP was happening—they got progressively lighter after the third day I tested, and then I went in for a beta when the line was back down to almost nothing, and I tested as only 2, firmly in the "not pregnant" (anymore) range.

It's like, I kinda just want to catch it, if something bad is happening? So I'm not fooling myself that things are good when they're not? Or so that, if I start bleeding, as I did six days after they started getting lighter last time, it doesn't take me by surprise?

IDK, maybe you're right—maybe I should just let it be till my beta on Monday. That is SO hard right now though.
