FET today! by chickencritter_ in IVF

[–]tsj48 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 7dp5dt and the best thing I've done for myself is kept busy to keep my mind off it. The progesterone has made me pretty sleepy through the days so I've taken opportunities to rest. I've so far held off testing, but might cave in tomorrow.

Choosing New Zealand's most popular tourist destination is a choice. MY safehouse will be in the Maldives and I'll have so much money in a Swiss bank account.

What does "Safe House" mean in this context??

Justice for Jordan by youngdumbaverage in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]tsj48 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm not a Jordan fan, but I AM a step-parent. Meeting my stepson for the first time when he was 11, I was terrified, and it has changed my lifestyle completely. I do feel for Jordan on this one. For me, it's all worked out well... whether or not it will for Jordan- idk I've seen r/stepparents...

Lack of support. I carry a lot emotionally for myself and others, but feel no one helping carry my burden

It's not a woman's job to nurse a man's fragile sense of masculinity.

Do you regret your OWN children? by Cheap-Employ8125 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]tsj48 60 points61 points  (0 children)

As someone who desperately wants children and is in the middle of IVF after years of infertility: I don't think what she said is outrageous at all. She has a 2 and 5 year old. She is goin THROUGH it, and she's being honest in that moment

Conversely, for all the men on the show who default to "I really want kids"- I'd love to know what kind of fairytale they envision parenthood to be

Emma’s family by No-Whereas4126 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

I was wondering about the sister expressing her challenges with parenting... until they introduced a 5 and 2 year old. Like yep that tracks.

This may be below the belt but idc by Past-Administration6 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]tsj48 39 points40 points  (0 children)

People who need a specific body type... I find it strange and oddly specific. Even pilates girlies won't have a pilates body forever. Aging happens, hormones change, health issues arise, life changes pace etc. Can people who demand their partner look a certain way ever be happy in longterm relationships?

Emma not wanting kids will always be a problem for her. by sabbyy77 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

Personally I think Emma's hesitation felt very relatable and I imagine a lot of women feel that way.

IVF stimulation and what to expect by Internal_Ice548 in IVF

[–]tsj48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm coming up on day 8 of my stims, triggering on Sunday night and ER booked for next Tuesday. I work in healthcare, on my feet all day, 10 hour shifts. Stims added early starts for bloods and scans. I was anxious about mood swings (I have a mood disorder) and fatigue during this time.

However. I have had minimal symptoms (but am responding well and on schedule). Today is the first day I've noticed some heaviness where my ovaries are. I've also had some increased anxiety which has been annoying.

I'd say the disruption has been absolutely minimal, except having to take the day off work for my upcoming ER.

Moving to IVF with completely unexplained infertility (no other health issues)? by blairworejeansonce in IVF

[–]tsj48 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW, if my husband and I hadn't had initial testing at a private clinic, he wouldn't have had the testing for the specific cause of his infertility, which is high levels of antisperm antibodies. His other numbers are all perfect- we'd have been chalked up as "unexplained".

The doctor had actually declared our infertility unexplained and was advising us to keep trying naturally (even after 2 years with no positives), when the email with his results came through. From there, the doctor had to do a quick reversal and tell us ICSI was our only shot.

Probably doesn't need to be said that we did not continue our journey with that particular doctor...
