My workout was shorter than I wanted, but did treadmill and triceps.

So are we considered part of the neurodivergent community?

Had my second retrieval yesterday. They got three eggs and two fertilized. So far, this is the exact same thing that happened my last retrieval in January. Three total eggs, two fertilized. They weren't growing super well so we did a fresh transfer for both (and neither stuck).

Feeling a bit discouraged that the same pattern is repeating itself again. Probably will end up doing a fresh transfer for both of these embryos (again). I'm 33 with unexplained low ovarian reserve. Just sucks.

Hi Ladies, I’m 31 yrs old I‘m in birth control right now and will be starting Stims from 08/29 as part of IVF treatment. This is my first time IVF, all my results are normal but due to male factor had to go with IVF, and my insurance is not covering for my drug:Follistim-900 unit Pen/Gonal-F, my doctor prescribed Follistim. So I was doing price match for both in Freedom fertility and Village Pharmacy. I see Follistim is costing $2741 and Gonal-F is $847(due to some discount), which is best one?

The person I’m seeing has been responding to my texts days later (only a recent development) and it’s making me anxious. They have been busy the past two weeks with PhD exams and their last message was them planning when they could see me again (in a really flirty way too), so logically I know the delay is not a sign of disinterest. But I have an anxious attachment style (if that’s not obvious) and my therapist is on leave right now, so I’m struggling. Do any of you have any advice?

In case anyone would like to spare themselves a heart attack stroke and possibly spreading Covid to a large group of people as you run around screaming for help. If you child goes missing and doesn’t respond to you calling her name despite screaming it at the top of your lungs 50 times check under the blankets her room. She could be a very sound sleeper and entirely huddled under the blanket on the floor. Also don’t trust your 12 year old to check under the blanket either before calling 911.
