Has anyone had any side effects from Ovidrel? I did my shot on Wednesday night and Thursday and Friday I was SO tired and fatigued and it was impossible to focus. Did my IUI on Friday and I’ve been SO crampy and in pain and I’m soooo cranky and irritable and I can’t figure out if it’s from the injection still or what

Not to many posts on women’s watches here! Want to buy a low/mid range Rolex- thinking datejust 31mm but unsure if that’s a good women’s model/ size (drop wrist pics below ladies !!)

It’s kinda scary that after doing about 2 weeks of watch research, bigger and bigger numbers start fazing me less and less.

What is the cap for relocation claim reimbursement if I am arranging it by my own?

What makes you want to learn yet another programming framework / library / language besides the stack at work?

Etiquette for Christmas gift:/tip for doormen building? Do you put cash in a holiday card? (Not from here and my previous place I owned and knew everyone well so seemed different …)

Hi, I wanted to work on my powerpoint formatting skills especially around alignment, synthesising information on one slide and just learn how to do things faster on ppt to churn decks faster. Would greatly appreciate if there are any courses/ videos online that can help. Thanks!

Sex after positive beta? Not sure when it’s allowed again.

I did some ivf shopping and now I don’t know which one to choose. One is a university affiliated ivf center and the other one is a local /not a chain fertility center. I am open to suggestions and so overwhelmed.

does anyone know how the process works to be transferred to a regular ob if an IUI or IVF cycle is successful? my RE nurse is saying they’re planning on doing 2 ob ultrasounds and then transfer me around 8 weeks. does this sound normal?

Did you have to use a specialty pharmacy for your FET transfer drugs, or did your local pharmacy carry these?

I have mild PCOS. My period is regular (28 to 32 days). We have recently started trying and are using the clear blue ovulation sticks to try to pindown ovulation days. Any success stories?

Any one have success with taking premama for her? If so did you stop taking everytime you ovulate?

I understand that PwC reimburse the elective egg freezing procedure by sending you the money through our paychecks (and will be taxed as income). I wonder if we can use the amount for itemized medical deductible when we file our tax return?

For those of you who finally got a BFP after years of infertility - when did you announce it to family/friends?

How do people stay focused and engaged at work when dealing with TTC struggles? It’s weighing on me emotionally and the work doesn’t stop. I find myself getting super annoyed and resentful towards work stress bc I’m dealing with health stuff also.

My wife is a Fragile X carrier, so with this and trouble conceiving we are doing IVF and doing genetic testing on the embryos. There were 2 options Natera and Cooper. We went with Natera - and they take so long!! It sounds like it will be months before they send sample collection kits to us and close family members, then use those samples to develop a customized embryo test. Natera is fine with us beginning hormone stimulation in parallel, but our RE won’t allow it (no clear explanation why).

Started clomid for medicated IUI. Does it have any side effects or does it really work for getting success in IUI ?

How are all the 2WWers doing? Three days to go over here, the struggle is real :)

I had a FET two days ago. But woke up today feeling really energized. Now mildly freaking out that that means that the implantation wasn't successful. Waiting is the worst.

Has anybody gone through robotic Myomectomy for fibroids and been successfully pregnant? Does it lead to any tissue scaring which may prevent you from getting pregnant?

Got a beta HcG result and it’s only 26ML. They called me to go back in two days and said it’s very low. Anyone with similar first result that ended up in pregnancy? Obv freaking out.

I feel like the fertility process is pulling my hubs and I apart. We’re both not great at communication, but I feel like this stressful process just is not bringing us together at all. I can’t vocalize what I need (because I don’t actually know what I need) and hubs is stressed and I feel like he’s drinking more and just not talking about his feelings. Anyone else navigating this? I don’t even know how to broach this topic. I am all about therapy, has anyone benefitted from couples therapy?

For those interested in egg donation process, I’m posting a description of the experience which was written by someone who successfully went through it.

This gave me hope and swayed my way to try it

IVF is such an emotional rollercoaster, and our healthcare system doesn't make it any easy! Just got ripped by pharmacy. They charged 17K for round 1 drugs, which exhausts my 10K pharmacy claim.

For those who took Prednisone as part of an FET, how long did you take it? At what week of pregnancy did you stop/wean off the medication?

Does anyone have any recommendations for egg retrieval in the Boston area? I’ve heard great things about Boston IVF and CCRM, but would love to get additional opinions. CCRM seems a lot newer, while Boston IVF seems much more well-established.
