I’ve had three miscarriages and most recently a molar pregnancy (Jan 2021) that was conceived via IUI. Have had all the labs and blood work done and show no signs of anything wrong. My partner and I have sortof stopped trying subconsciously because of the emotional turmoil we’ve been through. We are exhausted and traumatized.

I’m almost 38. Is it time to just…give up and move on?

Responded to medical rfe on Monday. Status on uscis site is not updated. That was my first time sending something on my own so I’m a bit worried. Is this normal? Tried Emma -> live agent, they said they will respond in 60 days on whether they got docs or not. Don’t know what I can do. Nebraska/eb2/row/i485 stage. Submitted in mid October

Lateraled recently to CA and can I just say that studying for the bar and working full time is god awful.

I’m exhausted and it’s only been 3 weeks.

I'm a US citizen living abroad I applied almost 11 months ago for my spouse. Married for years, kid. I wait and wait. It seems this will take 2 years, maybe more. I feel trapped. On one side the US system demands I work and domicile in US, the other side says families should be prioritized to stay together. My spouse has had enough of the process. I feel trapped abroad and locked in a dysfunctional system. We're just in limbo, it's depressing

Might be the wrong bowl but finding it extremely difficult to focus on work post busy season. It’s been 2 weeks since we filed and I’m still taking lots of naps and breaks (I’m talking like 3-4 cumulative hrs worked during the day). Idk if I’m taking longer to recover from busy season bc I’m getting old or if I’m over public accounting (but then where do i go). Tried to schedule time with a therapist but everyone has a months-long waitlist so next step might be trying to find a life/career coach

I need help interpreting my Day 3 fertility test results. I am planning on starting a family within the next 5-7 years and wanted to get a baseline understanding. My OB/GYN says my Pap smear was normal. My results are as follows:

Female, 28 years old.
AMH: 8.41 ng/mL
FSH: 10.0 mIU/mL
Estradiol: 22 pg/mL

Are these numbers okay? Do I have time or should I be acting soon?

Post egg retrieval, and my doctor says my thyroid levels are a bit high for what he wants to see for FET, so he has me on medicine to lower it before it’s time for FET. Has anyone else experienced this? Was it caused by all the IVF shots? Will this be a long term issue?

Started getting ready for egg retrieval in the next 2 weeks, prep appt and ordering meds Monday. Been prepping with this doctor for 3 months. Just found out today that their lab is out of network and I have to pay out of pocket for the $14k lab fees. I’m devastated but I can’t start over again. Broke down in tears as I realized these IVF cycles will keep us from getting a house. My husband is handling it all like a champ, but I just feel so bad for being broken.
