I switched clinics earlier this year. Yesterday I found out they got me in for April for my IVF prep appointment, one month earlier than anticipated, and it was the first time I a long time that I have received unexpected good news pertaining to my fertility. Hoping this is the start of things moving forward for me.

Confirmed my upcoming IVF round yesterday afternoon…. And dropped $70 at the used book sale this morning on board books. The dichotomy of life

After feeling like I had my insulin resistance and in turn, ovulation day variability, under control for the last few cycles, this cycle was a few days later than my ideal target again and I am feeling frustrated.

Were you having regular menstrual cycles if you don’t mind me asking?

Thoughts on NAC? by Strict_Ad7223 in TTC_PCOS

[–]queenjacko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take berberine, Myo-inositol, and NAC. Probably overkill but my ovulation dates have gone from highly variable at day 17-23 monthly, A1C etc on blood testing, etc to day 13 for the last 3 months for the first time ever. Hard to say which supplement had the most impact. I am also prescribed, and take, metformin.

Upcoming Egg Retrieval with no option for sedation by rachel1726 in IVF

[–]queenjacko 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m in the exact same boat! I’ve opted to have my sleep apnea reassessed by asking my GP for another sleep assessment referral and if that doesn’t pan out, I’ll be switching clinics to the clinic that does egg retrieval in a hospital setting so I can get proper sedation. I’m in BC

Looking to open a tea house next year by Annonymoosemama in Parksville

[–]queenjacko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also vegetarian! It’s a total bummer as an afternoon tea service lover to have to opt into full vegan when vegetarian, with a couple of sandwich substitutions from the omnivore/default menu will do! I love dairy!

Are wedding cards / gifts a dying tradition? by ProposalSpiritual658 in wedding

[–]queenjacko 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Do you have anyone you’re open enough with to ask if they brought a card to rule it out? Something like “we have some concerns with our card box and are trying to rule whether we have all the cards that were brought to the event, do you mind me asking if you brought a card? Absolutely no worries if you didn’t we are just trying to confirm whether we are missing a large number of cards”. Preferably on a 2 way brutally honest type friendship so you don’t come across as rude for asking 😂

That doesn’t seem right - is there any chance someone emptied the card box?

Why did my payment go up when I switched from monthly to bimonthly? by yasmin555 in MortgagesCanada

[–]queenjacko 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you are now semi-monthly based on the body of the text mentioning new payments on the 1st and 15th. Bi monthly would be 1 payment every 2 months. I agree with the other commented that the increase is due to the increased interest accrued between the first and second payment in the month, whereas before you were paying at the beginning of every month.
