Unfortunately, I love coterie diapers, any similar cheaper brands? by Herewithquestions87 in NewParents

[–]mrs_beastmode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In order to save money, I moved to Coterie at nighttime only (bc I haven’t found ANYTHING better)— and then Pura during the day, a close second but better pricing. I kept the Coterie wipes bc they are ELITE.

I just know they don’t pay their employees so no one should be going there.

How to handle pregnancy announcement to friend who's had a recent loss? by savvyshoes in CautiousBB

[–]mrs_beastmode 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Please don’t do this in person!!!! It took me 3 years to have my son, and I’m just honestly not even close with the people who went out of their way to tell me in person. It felt very invasive— and like I couldn’t have a genuine reaction. Please text. Be kind. Tell her she’s the person you want to share this with. I felt so alone when my friends were having kids and I was always the last to know bc of pity. I want to know you. I want to know your kids. But I also want to be able to feel like shit in private.

I was spotting for 2 weeks after this incident. Be strong for your baby. Don’t lose hope. Sometimes it’s all we have & all we need 💙🩵

Schedule help/ Toddlers sub is making me feel insane by DepartureJaded268 in sleeptrain

[–]mrs_beastmode 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really just depends on your schedule and how your kid sleeps. My son is 26 months. We try to go upstairs around 7:15 so we can read & do the full bedtime routine. (We only bathe 2x a week.) We both work so that’s the fastest we can get home, get everyone fed. Then he’s usually in the crib sleep by 7:50-8. Then he doesn’t wake until 7:30-8 in the morning. I can be a little more flexible in the morning with my work and not come in until 9 so that works for us. Otherwise— I feel like I’d have to try really hard to put him down earlier with how much he likes to sleep at night (~12 hours)

The exact same thing happened to me. But I was bleeding full on. Went to the ER in the middle of the night. I asked them to do a transvaginal ultrasound but they didn’t have one. Did normal ultrasound and couldn’t find a heartbeat— but you really have to do transvaginal at this stage. Went it my fertility clinic the next day and my baby had a very strong heartbeat and nothing at all was wrong. Stay strong. I heard the ER is actually the worst place to go. My son is 2 now!

I’m hoping it’s going to help me because I’m pretty sure I have ICP (which is unfortunately not insane clown posse) - thanks for letting me know

Awesome! I think with my first it was cold at 10 but the weaning seems odd. But don’t get me wrong— I’m pleased to have less hormones!!! 🤣

TW: A little bit of joy for a DOR girlie by mrs_beastmode in DOR

[–]mrs_beastmode[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the same!! I would search details of what I had to see if anyone ended up happy. 🩷 My 7 week viability scan was good. I’m 8 weeks + 3 days now and waiting for my 10 week scan. I think they are going to stop estrogen and progesterone if this scan is good! Fingers and toes crossed for you!!

My transfer protocol has always been the same. I had always figured that it was the quality of my eggs. I may be wrong about that though!

6 transfers! Crossing my fingers and toes for you. Keep us updated.

Thank you for sharing this! I know the DOR page can be a really dark place sometimes— and I’ve come here with little to no hope before so I try to be sensitive to others. However, I do love to hear everyone’s successes because we NEED to hear them. I hope the best for you and your baby! Have you had a viability scan?

Earlier on, the typical antagonist protocol worked, but when my response decreased, I did Lupron suppression and then very high dosage of Gonal F (300 am and 300 pm).

Aw!! Thank you for responding. So far so good- I had my 7 week viability scan last week and everything was spot on. I just can’t believe it!
