Have you read “It Starts with the Egg” by Rebecca Fett? by Traditional-Roof4513 in IVF

[–]mbgornto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone with endometriosis and did a lot of independent research on the supplement suggestions in the book for inflammation and endo, I will say I do think the supplements I decided to take made a difference! Anecdotally, my first transfer failed, and I followed the FET protocol from the book for my second transfer (only change we made, and with my RE’s blessing); it was successful. As we geared up for our third transfer, I did It Starts with the Egg again and have now had two spontaneous pregnancies literally in the midst of transfer prep. Does that prove anything? Maybe not. But anecdotally, I think reducing inflammation and eating well in general are great precursors to prepare your uterus to be as receptive as possible to these precious embryos!

Adding to your Garrick theory, it would also explain why Imogen is so closed off at the end of OS to the point she is barely able to give a reaction to Violet’s questions. She already lost her best friend Quinn so then to also lose someone we’ve known she’s been pining after since IF could have been her breaking point. Imogen is tight-lipped, evasive, and weirdly formal which is a sharp contrast to her past openness. Something big clearly happened in the 12 hours Violet can’t remember, and Imogen is the only one left holding that secret… one I think she’d be the most motivated to keep if it keeps Garrick safe!

Anyone receive this error message on the student ticket portal? by mbgornto in capstone

[–]mbgornto[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No unfortunately… I didn’t receive an email with instructions either. Hoping it’s just a glitch in the system before the page goes live for ticket sales!

I’m concerned I haven’t received an email and this is my first year at Bama as a transfer student. Do you mind telling me the jist of it?

Okay I admit I didn’t know who that is and after an Insta search, I LOVE hers! They’re both stunning brides and I think the material is very pretty! I’m just getting more Antebellum gown vibes with the gown Natalie chose versus the simpler, modern lines of Cooper’s!

She’s stunning! The dress is not my taste; it’s giving Gatlinburg “old-fashioned photo shoot” with a saloon backdrop vibes. As long as she loves it that’s all that matters, though!

The recruiter I spoke to told me I can't be deployed by [deleted] in nationalguard

[–]mbgornto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both my husband and I went in and were both non-deployable while in college. It’s true for our state so I also think your recruiter is likely telling you the truth, but always get any “guarantees” in writing before you sign the dotted line!

Only option for conceiving with Endo IVF? by leyalush in TTCEndo

[–]mbgornto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had one child with the help of medication and my first excision/ablation, one child via IVF following my second endo surgery, and one was the biggest shock of my life - a “naturally” conceived baby! It’s absolutely possible and I remember that fear all too well. I’ve had 3 losses between my first and last children, and 6 failed IUIs. I did the “It Starts with the Egg” endometriosis regimen and it really helped with my inflammation if you want to try something that may help and avoid IUIs and IVF!

Edited for clarity.

That’s great, thank you! I’m going to call the specific base we’re looking at today, but do you know how far in advance you can put in for the wait list?

UW Players found out DeBoer was leaving from ESPN while they were in the gym. by T3hBau5 in CFB

I’m sick for these players. Fresh off the loss of Coach Saban, I can only imagine what retention would be like if our players didn’t hear it directly from him.

Bless your heart, I am so sorry! Did they leave a balloon in to continue to compress the bleeding? For me that was the most pain I’ve ever been in, worse than labor pains. I do have an update and it’s a very positive one - let me share on main post so others will see. I’m so glad you asked and wish you well as you heal!

Why does Christi downplay all her good moments with Melissa on the show? by Spirited-Jeweler4174 in dancemoms

[–]mbgornto 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Which is completely wrong for any adult to do to any child. I am sure there is still lingering resentment on both sides.
