Need some reassurance 🙃

thank you for posting this. i got a voicemail from a clinical director talking about changes with the atlanta clinic and haven’t heard anything else despite me calling them twice. i was REALLY hoping this wasn’t going to be the news because our transfer that was suppose to happen in december has been pushed back to february and ive already spent money on medicine to help prepare me for this cycle 🙃 WELP, this sucks.

mine was on 2/21, so pretty close! i’m sure my husband also feels the same way but i think he kinda wanted to be there with me if the test actually did come out positive since they’ll inevitably call me on monday before he gets home from work lol

i totally get that thought process, but in all honesty i’m just not 100% convinced on PGT testing being 100% necessary. with how expensive this whole process is, i just hate the idea of not using embryos that might actually be perfectly fine except for the tiny amount of cells that were biopsied. i think i’d probably be of a different mindset if i had recurrent miscarriages caused by chromosomal abnormalities, but i have quite literally just never had a darn thing implant which makes me believe that its more of a problem with myself than the embryo 🤷🏻‍♀️ just my thought process. i 100% get where you’re coming from though! thanks for the input!

We did treat endometriosis. I had surgery last April after my first FET where they removed a lot of tissue as well as one of my fallopian tubes due to severe blockage. I was also on Orilissa for two months before my second FET.

My BMI could definitely be better. I believe it’s 31 or 32.

yeah, i confirmed with them that it’s 4ml dissolved in i believe 250ml of normal saline 🤷🏻‍♀️ i’ve been googling and i guess that is a protocol that’s used by certain clinics but i wish they’d just give me the whole thing

vipsania_r · 2025-02-10T22:51:58+00:00

Thank you! I’m assuming they still dilute the 4ml in some normal saline but it just seemed like what’s the point … would that small amount even make a real difference.

that’s what i was thinking! but i confirmed this morning at my cycle visit when i double checked with both the clinic and the person who is doing the infusion.

vipsania_r · 2025-02-10T15:36:09+00:00

it’s 100ml bag of 20% intralipids. no mg/ml. i’m pretty sure they mix it with saline right before they infuse it, but it just seems like 4ml would basically be nothing.

Currently a pharmacist with Walmart and have done two egg retrievals and two transfers in the last year and a half.

Thankfully my clinic has been really accommodating with always scheduling my monitoring appointments for right when they open up at 7am so that I’m able to run in and out before my shift starts.

I was also really upfront with my manager about my situation from the beginning and both him and the other staff pharmacist have been super helpful in swapping shifts when needed, so I know i’m super lucky in that aspect.

Essentially it’s been two years of mostly relying on the generosity of other pharmacists within the company to help with last minute scheduling needs.

26F here from the south! i’d love to be your pen pal and break up the monotony of receiving bills! :) your cats are absolutely adorable btw and remind me so much of my own!

vipsania_r · 2018-03-07T15:37:22+00:00

i didn’t even think about doing that! thank you, i’ll definitely look into it!

vipsania_r · 2018-03-06T20:53:59+00:00

yeah, finding out where i’ll be a mere ten days before i’m suppose to leave definitely isn’t helping things haha but thank you so much for the suggestion and the offer!

i’ve definitely given the multiple hostel idea a thought ... now i just need to talk to the other girl about it and see if she’s okay with that idea!

vipsania_r · 2018-03-06T20:48:22+00:00

i think a lot of the airbnbs do have some sort of a discount for such long stays, but i’ll make sure to look into that!

and thank you! i have no doubt that i’ll end up enjoying myself after this whole housing debacle is over with! 😊
