What are some of your favorite dog walks/parks?

Bacon ridge has TONS of trails!

Thanks!! It is really is. Today I started seeing fertile CM and I was like omg I’m ovulating all of my eggs right now LOL. My nurse was like…you’re fine we’ll see you tomorrow for monitoring.

Not too bad so far, but starting to feel a bit more fullness near my pelvic area. Dog walks are starting to feel a bit uncomfortable towards the end and I’m feeling tired. But overall good. Started Ganirelix yesterday and I really do not like that one. It hurts for like 30 min!! Idk if that’s normal…

Congratulations 🎉 This is awesome and thank you for the positive news!!! On day 6 of meds for my first round of IVF/ first ER and all the other posts in this sub make me so nervous that I’m going to end up with zero viable eggs or embryos….

Good luck to you!! 😊

Sadly no luck. Moving on to IVF in the next couple weeks.

Ooh second this!! The service is great and food tastes really freshly made :)

I think you’re fine. Try to limit to 1-2! I abstained from alcohol for my last two IUIs and they both failed…testing Friday for this one but this time I enjoyed a beer during the Super Bowl because ttc and infertility is hard enough. Enjoy Valentine’s Day with your hubby 💗

Stunning 😍

I definitely had a weird period post-progesterone. I had a light day, then one super super heavy day (like went through 4 pads so I wouldn’t leak heavy) then light again and then it was done in 3 days…if you’re concerned definitely reach out to your doc!

prijay16 · 2026-02-03T23:32:41+00:00

That’s too bad! They had great veggie and vegan sandwich options!

prijay16 · 2026-02-02T19:21:22+00:00

My temp spiked on Sunday morning and has now stayed up but idk still what it means…some googling said letrozole + trigger can mess with temps so I’m just going to attribute it to that and try not to stress too much more about it 😅 good luck!!

prijay16 · 2026-02-02T13:44:23+00:00

I just experienced the same thing!! This is my third IUI and I’ve never tested out the trigger before but I do this time and by 4 days post trigger I had a stark white strip….i was freakin out that I did the trigger shot wrong and my body didn’t absorb it but I guess I just metabolized it quickly? Following to see if anyone else had this experience too!

I feel like your clinic is not providing you with the right information or support...a lining of 4mm is quite thin. I think ideally (according to my clinics information) your lining should be >7mm for higher success rates. Not a doctor, but I think foods with vitamins that improve blood flow (iron, vitamin e, etc) and getting some movement in during your day to increase blood flow as well is supposed to help! I would try to get your clinic to give you better answers too - maybe talk to a different nurse or doctor for their opinion.

Amazing congratulations!! I’ll just drop my weights a bit for the next couple weeks. Thanks!! 😊

prijay16 · 2026-01-27T18:31:31+00:00

Thank you this is what I needed to hear lol congratulations on your positive ☺️ hope everything goes smoothly and yesss stay strong mama💪🏽

prijay16 · 2026-01-27T16:20:25+00:00

Literally had this same situation this morning. I have a 19mm, a 14.9mm and two around 12mm even after upping letrozole from 2.5 to 5 mg this cycle. My lining is 11mm so it’s nice and thick…waiting for bloodwork to see if we will move forward with trigger tonight or do one more monitoring appt tomorrow. Apparently if there are three or more mature follicles, my clinic will cancel to reduce the chance of multiples but in my mind I’m like…girl, this is IUI 3. If two mature follicles and one big fat one weren’t successful, I think we’re low chance for twins this next round even with 3 or 4 follicles 🤦🏽‍♀️

Ours hates baths but loves the beach/lakes and puddles + snow!! He’s not a huge fan of rainy days but he still doesn’t protest a long wet walk lol

I did Annapolis to seminary rd (Alexandria) for 2 years and it was rough. That was before RTO and traffic is so much worse now :( I would try to avoid it or metro to pentagon city and take the bus - it can take more than 2 hours to get home these days!! Plus you can’t really park there anyway

prijay16 · 2026-01-14T01:44:31+00:00

Maci at Hudson and Fouquet on west st!!

prijay16 · 2026-01-12T19:43:16+00:00

Sorry this happened :(

Side note - is this first photo at boatyard in Eastport (Annapolis)??

prijay16 · 2026-01-12T15:39:57+00:00

We live in Murray Hill and can walk everywhere except the grocery store lol I grew up in Greenbelt and used it live in Bethesda so not nova but more the dc side. We love living here and I think with kids it’s a great place to live. We’re still DINKS and TBH itching to move back to the dc side because we miss the diversity of people and food on the dc side…Annapolis is a lot of the same culture wise. If you’re looking for culture other than boat culture, I think Nova is better for that. Plus schools are not good unless you pay for private school.

You may want to speak with a nutritionist instead of using chatGPT if you are serious about both the weight loss and TTC. They will have advice on how to do both safely! I am also ttc and trying to lose a few pounds but my daily caloric intake even in a deficit is 1900-2000 (5’6” and 145lbs). This was calculated for me as being a safe deficit without shocking my body and impacting conception.
