Getting ready for IVF: Round ☝🏻

Courtney

Hey guys!

Soooo... our <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IUI</a>’s failed, and as our RE said “we gave it the good ole college try, but now it’s time for the big guns”.

Any tips/suggestions?

We are taking this cycle off, and starting stims CD2 of my upcoming cycle. I have already received my meds, bought fun colored sharpies, and a clear door shoe rack... oh Pinterest how I love thee.

It was recommended to me by my boss that I take the necessary step to get FMLA rolling... should I? It was a “to protect yourself” comment which had me like

I had planned on becoming pregnant much sooner, and have been banking my sick, and vacation time... so I’m not worried about time off - but for those that have been through it, is it worth it?

Also, what did you ladies do for physical activity? I row and erg, but because of the intensity I’ve had to back off which is triggering my anxiety, and depression (I have generalized anxiety, and secondary PTSD and use high intensity physical activity as my outlet when I can’t go to Feelings (therapy)).

Thanks for any tips.
