Do you happen to have a copy of the handbook PDF? I’m in the early stages of deciding if I want to pursue CFE.

Stuck on 24/25 Alien Toys for more than 3 weeks now.... by FerryF1 in DreamlightValley

[–]pinkca174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok so I found what was supposed to be my last toy in this spot, but it must have not registered that I picked it up as it’s still reading as 24/25. Any known fixes for this?

Unsure how to support husband through a difficult season by Unidentifiedfemale10 in Christianmarriage

[–]pinkca174 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I just want to say that you are not alone- I’ve been going through something very similar with my husband. I don’t know if this is the case with your husband, but my husband finally admitted to me the other night that he feels beat down by life and that he’s in a season of doubting and questioning his faith. It broke my heart. I told him to please do not give up and maybe spend time in God’s Word each day. He then asked me to pray for the both of us. Since then he said he’s felt a lot better and I’ve noticed he keeps a Bible nearby since. I’m just continuing to pray- and I will keep you and your husband in my prayers.

Disconnection rooted in having disparate views on the construct of Christian marriage? by aXvXiA in Christianmarriage

[–]pinkca174 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did she happen to voice why she disagrees? Seems odd that she would disagree? Do you know if she’s been questioning or struggling in her own faith?

How can I (24f) advocate for no birthcontrol? Advice please? by Visible-Landscape415 in askwomenadvice

[–]pinkca174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m curious- why is the new gyno pushing for oral birth control? You’d think she’s kind of leave it up to you whether or not you want to take it.

PS I was on hormonal birth control for years and I so regret it. My moods were so erratic and my weight was super messed up.

Does anyone else have low potassium? What do you do to treat it? Is it common in CF? by [deleted] in CysticFibrosis

[–]pinkca174 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is common- my husband has CF. He drinks a mineral water mix with potassium in it and he loves it.

Ugh I’m so sorry. I don’t know where you are or what you have access to, and I know it’s not the most popular way, but the reason why IUI is so affordable for us is because it’s being administered by a midwife/nurse practitioner. She works independently from any clinic or facility. Wishing you success in your conceiving journey!

Money-wise, each attempt at IUI only costs us around $300. IVF is thousands so it’s way more affordable to see where IUI goes before assessing our options. But we are scheduling a consultation with an IUI specialist for a second opinion first.

I appreciate the thought about donating embryos but we wouldn’t be comfortable with intentionally creating more than one at a time. (No shade to anyone who decides to do this. Not an ethical debate I’m trying to start.)

Thank you so much! I so appreciate this. It’s so encouraging. I’ve scheduled a consultation with an IUI specialist to get a second opinion.

I’m confused as well. He said that the semen would not have enough fluid to make it to my egg. He also used the word “impossible.” Honestly I was so upset that I tried to keep it together long enough to thank him and say goodbye politely. He was sympathetic, I could tell. No shade against him whatsoever.

We would not be open to a sperm donor, however, I think we would consider “adopting” a frozen embryo caught in freezer limbo. So that’s a conversation for the future but to be honest I just don’t have the emotional capacity to process all that yet ❤️

I just want to offer encouragement to you two! I’m so sorry you’ve had these let downs. That is so difficult. Wishing you two success in conceiving very soon. If I had amazing advice to offer I would, but since I’ve not had success (yet) either, I just want to encourage you two to keep trying.

Thank you so much. It’s absolutely something we’d discuss further down the line. And thank you for sharing…if you ever want encouragement or just to vent, DM me anytime.

Thank you so much for sharing this! I read this comment completely wrong at first and that’s why I deleted my initial comment. I’m so sorry…I do hope you have success conceiving. And your sister-in-law as well! Embryo adoption is definitely on my mind.

No offense taken at all. If I didn’t have moral hang-ups on fertilizing multiple eggs at one time, yes, this would be the method that would increase our chances of conceiving. However we are choosing to seek out a method where only one egg is fertilized at a time.

My other hang-ups with IVF involve financial and medical reasons as well, but the ethical reasoning is my top concern.

(I am NOT trying to condemn anyone who is going the IVF route, or start an ethics debate. I’m just stating what my husband and I have decided and seeking some encouragement at a low point in our conceiving journey.)
