Lesbian couple - wife had an ivf cycle and had a miscarriage. I never wanted to try and have my own children. Wondering if I will ever regret it.... I am turning 30 so if I change my mind I could still probably do it later. Just wondering about it.

Divorce or not? Loveless marriage, but love our 2 children and enjoying being close to them. Seeing my brother struggle with joint custody and think this is not for me. Too lazy/busy to rock the boat.

Been with a girl for years. We get along well and enjoy each other's company. We're comfortable around each other, and I've generally been happy with her. As we've begun talking about marriage, I'm really giving some deliberate thought as to whether she's the right life partner for me. I'd pondered it before, but our relationship progressed very organically so never gave it too much serious consideration.

Now that I think of it, cont..

Any tips for organizing a bedroom, closet, dresser & bathroom? My teen has IADHD, and low executive functioning. Her room looks like a land mine. Clean clothes are mixed in with dirty, her desk is a disaster, she won’t let go of clothes she’s outgrown, drawers are open with clothes hanging out. A therapist said to close her door if we don’t want to see it but it’s more than that. She needs this important life skill & I don’t know how to help. Easier to organize w/o her but that’s not a solution.

It’s been 5 weeks and I haven’t gone a day or night without crying and feeling haunted by them. I can’t eat, can’t sleep, can’t produce quality work, can’t find joy in anything I previously loved. This is the worst physical and psychological pain I’ve ever experienced.

How long after a failed transfer does your stomach and body feel like it’s back to normal? It’s been a little over a week since I got the news that my transfer a few weeks ago didn’t work.

I would cash out any stables you hold on Gemini and move any crypto into cold storage. I only held stables there but have cashed out everything to my bank.

I am finding the Instagram foodie culture strange and annoying. I’m getting a flood of likes and followers daily because they want you to like all their posts and follow them to up their count. There’s an unspoken etiquette where you are obligated to do the same thing. So I do it. I just want to cook, take pics of my food, and write about it to have a collection of what I make in one place. Sheesh! Rant over! 😁

Fellow KPMG, anyone with aetna pos II plan? It seems like you have a 35,000 lifetime maximum.

I also understand that oral drugs such as letrazole are covered under the prescription plan and you only need to enroll and register in the fertility plan if you need IUI and the more rigorous treatments.

Questions:
1. Does the letrazole count towards the 35 lifetime maximum?

Any other advice or insight would be appreciated.

My wife and I just finished the IVF cycle and there was no implantation. We’re bummed out a bit. I’m 42 and she’s 40. Her something number is .6 what I understand to be super low. Anyway, it’s super emotional but I find myself more angry than anything else… I’ve wanted to have kids for the last 10 years and she kept putting it off. Put an iud in without talking to me about it, and insisted that we couldn’t get pregnant until she was ready. I feel like she took my future from me by delaying until

Tough IVF mama warriors, would you start a new job in the middle of your stim cycle (fresh transfer)? What reasons would you give to the potential employer so you start 2-3 days after your transfer day?
It’s about a 3 week gap on the proposed start date to when i wrap up the ivf/transfer. I don’t want to jeopardize my ivf since transitioning into a new job can be stressful and I wasn’t successful in the last round. I am almost kicking myself for trying to pursuit a new career while ivf. 😕😔

Hi all. My wife and I are working with a RE as we are a same sex couple and need the fertility clinic to complete the insemination process. My wife’s a clean bill of health for everything except a 3.8 TSH level. She is on synthroid to get it down and it’s up to us if we want to try with our first IUI in three days. The RE recommends it’s not as low as they’d like (2.5) and that >2.5 increases risk of miscarriage. I guess I’m looking for stories where you’ve been successful >2.5?

Did IUI couple of times but failed. Not sure it works , fertility specialists are not that much interested in IUI but directly recommend IVF.
