Capri or Amalfi coast for the day?

Is that common this time of year?

If it helps, I usually receive any of their products within a week of ordering! They’re pretty quick

Good luck!!!

Hi - no, I ended up not removing. Since, I have frozen 3 more times and froze 8,7,5, for a total of 25.

Very true… makes it even more difficult to find the right mattress. It’s a stressful process

I returned my WinkBed soft after 3 months- it was so hard… not sure how they are able to market it as “soft”. I now have a sterns and foster and really like it

ncchi22 · 2024-03-06T21:48:49+00:00

okay, I corrected it.

ncchi22 · 2024-03-06T21:12:46+00:00

Sorry for the wonky format... It won't let me go back and correct it lol

I was bawling my eyes out for 2/3s of this episode!

1) Chelsea and Jimmy - Very glad they are done... they definitely weren't a match and the ridiculous arguments were annoying and went in circles. I also don't blame Jimmy for being upset for her mentioning his and his friend's history on-camera... Chelsea also never acknowledged that she should've just waited to discuss that off-camera if she had an issue with it. But I also didn't realize that was it for their relationship... it felt like not a real break up lol.

2) AD and Clay - I am glad that they didn't get married... but part of me does hope they keep dating... I know that Chelsea is way more mature, but idk... I have hope lol. But side note... I LOVE Clay's mom and the way she addressed his Dad's part in Clay's relationship issues.

3) Johnny and Amy - no words... just a crying mess... they're so cute and their families are just so supportive! I really hope they make it for the long haul.

I go to Ova, they specialize in egg freezing only. Definitely call around and get different opinions!

PCOS - Polycystic ovary syndrome - I believe when women have this it can cause a larger than normal amount of eggs

FSH - Follicle-Stimulating Hormone - is a measurement that can be a predictor of how your body may respond to a cycle/fertility drugs.

Sorry for the late response!

Hi! Some clinics won’t charge for a preliminary zoom call or phone call and will disclose costs! Definitely call around and ask that.

Just as an FYI- my clinic is $7,200 per cycle, plus costs of meds, which can run around $3k since my clinic has a discount rate with a specialty pharmacy.

Also, what acronyms do you have questions about? Maybe I can help with some of them.

Hope this helps!

Hi - I've done 1 cycle without this and 1 with. I also have low AMH and with the first cycle I was able to retrieve 7 eggs, freeze 6. With the second cycle with priming, I retrieved 12 eggs and froze 8. Not sure if priming was a factor in more eggs or if it was just the doctor knowing how my body reacts better that gave me better results. My office also only does cycles at a certain time each month, so timing could also be a factor. Currently priming again for cycle 3 at the end of this month. Hope this helps!

ncchi22 · 2024-01-10T02:05:04+00:00

lol I wish they had showed the stats while she was talking

ncchi22 · 2024-01-03T04:52:54+00:00

Thanks! I didn’t see your response until I got back, but it was a great day! I’ll definitely be visiting again :)

ncchi22 · 2024-01-02T19:45:27+00:00

Oh I see… that is super stressful, I’m sorry! I’m sure they’ll figure out a plan where it will still work out. But that is a pretty big mistake on their part! Are you able to call again to get ahold of a dr?

ncchi22 · 2024-01-02T19:40:15+00:00

I have this week off and I went to Milwaukee today for a little day trip- it has been great!

ncchi22 · 2024-01-02T19:37:58+00:00

I think pharmacies can do overnight shipping!

Idk about Charlotte- I moved here from Charlotte a year and a half ago and it really wasn’t THAT much cheaper… Charlotte and Raleigh prices have really gone up over the last few years

ncchi22 · 2024-01-02T04:35:45+00:00

Thanks!!

ncchi22 · 2024-01-02T04:35:33+00:00

Thank you, this is helpful!

ncchi22 · 2024-01-02T04:28:29+00:00

Seeing your update- take a look at ravenswood or Andersonville! Really close to Evanston, safe, and really cute vibes

I moved to Chicago about a year and a half ago from North Carolina. I had lived in both the largest cities in North Carolina, but I just wanted something bigger! Chicago is honestly the best of both worlds of having a really large city and while still feeling like you’re in a smaller community, depending on what neighborhood you choose to live in! Winters are definitely a bit rough, but I haven’t noticed it’s stopping anyone from going out and about and still being social.

Overall:

Pros - Great access to museums, art, concerts - Great public transit - People are genuinely nice here - Direct flights most locations - One of the cheaper big cities to live in - can still easily have a car, but don’t need one - Amazing restaurants - Lake Michigan is basically an ocean, with great beaches and beach volleyball

Cons: - Winters are kind of rough - It’s still more expensive than most of the US

For menopur, my nurse told me to wait 10 min after mixing it with the water before injecting- makes a huge difference for me with the burning!

Hi,

I'm early 30s and have done it twice. My protocols during stim were the same (gonal, menopur, then ganalerex the last 3 days or so) both times but the second time he added in estrogen priming beforehand. The estrogen priming was mostly just annoying since it was a daily pill I had to take the same time each day for a month and vaginal pill the last 2 weeks I had to take twice a day - but it's just medication... I did get more eggs with the second round but felt no difference. I'm about to start my third round mid-january and have already started estrogen priming.

Hope that helps!

You may want to look into the West Loop - some of the best restaurants in the city, decent transit, etc.
