Praying so hard for you, Andrea! I'm 41 and on my 22nd cycle for baby#2. I've had 2 losses on the last 6 months, so it's not been an easy journey. I was expecting it to be difficult to get pregnant, but I was NOT anticipating the losses. I had no idea how high the pregnancy loss rate is. It doesn't matter at what stage a pregnancy is lost. It's a hard thing to go through. Our stories aren't identical, but we are on the same journey. It's been nice feeling like I have someone to go through this with.
@@newcreation1221 oh I’m so sorry! Yes it is never easy no matter how early the loss. I am here for whatever you need. I hope that we can encourage each other in this and to support in the good times and the bad. Thank you so much for this message. Please keep me updated.🙏♥️
Eeeekk...Im keeping everything crossed for you. You are so strong & I admire that, you havent given up, there is always a plan b, you so deserve this. Even with a big smile on your face I do sometimes see the sadness in your eyes. Sending hugs from the UK
I have been watching your videos for a long time now bc i can relate alot im suffering from pre-menopausal been trying now for almost a yr i got pregnant 2 month ago and lost the pregnancy Before all the i try ivf 2 times and both time was a failed i was told by the infertility doctor wouldn’t be able to conceive On my own Bc I have Low thyroid and pre- menopause lost all hope cry got depressed i pray so hard for a miracle we try ivf to conceive a baby boy and it was a failed both times I remember My Husband telling me Not To lose Hope the god timing was perfect and the my time will come 6 months after my Failed IVf I got Pregnant On My Own with a baby Boy who is Now 1 yr old i have faith the god will bless us with are miracle baby we can’t lose the faith 💕🙏🏻
Don't beat yourself up about the past, we often think of what opportunity we missed out on-but we don't see what hardships we avoided. You're amazing!!
Oh my goodness Mama, you are a whirlwind❣️ Once again, all the best to you on this journey. Wow wee those IVF prices, so unfair to all the families out there in need. Let's hope and pray that you might not need to go that route again. 💜🌸💜
@@lucysoleil2895 thank you Lucy! It would’ve been no big deal if I had $4000 sitting around. I was excited to get started, but it’s OK. I can save the money somehow and maybe get to do it by Christmas time.♥️♥️
@@andreapoole4778Hey Andrea, I was just thinking again about something and hoping you could answer a question for me. So I know we need progesterone to raise and stay elevated to help the gestation of a new embryo / fetus before the placenta takes over around 12-weeks, but I think a couple videos ago you also mentioned wanting to keep your estrogen up during this time too. I know higher estrogen can thicken your lining, but once implantation has occurred, what does elevated estrogen do to have the embryo or to help continue the pregnancy?
Well fingers crossed this natural cycle works wow don’t you just Love all the charges they have and act like it’s no big deal I’m sorry they don’t have a better way of payments I am 36 weeks in few days we are thinking baby girl will come on the 25th when the stitch is removed I am having tons of early labor signs all ready I am a total mess my feet ankles and lower legs are so swollen and having really bad pelvic pain my ob wants me to agree to a 37 week induction that would be the 2nd of October I’m not sure if I want to agree to that unless things gets worse but I’ll keep you updated
I was thinking about your videos, I went to a fertility clinic and they told me the internet lies about progesterone. That taking progesterone at any time in the cycle is essentially like taking birth control. That the only women that need progesterone are women doing ivf because it is not a natural occurrence in the body with ivf. They said that this is a really big common misconception.
Hey Andrea, I'm so sorry the ivf is so expensive I'm gutted for you, it's unbelievable what they charge, certainly not affordable, good luck this cycle hope you get your miracle x
@@Lucy-Wilkinson thank you so much Lucy! I will keep trying with my own eggs and hopefully receive a total miracle. If not, another miracle can head my way with double donors. I will start to put little bits away and hopefully be able to do it(if not pregnant with my own) by Christmas. ♥️♥️
Hi Andrea! I know you know this, but continuing to buy sperm 3 months is almost $1000 saved right there, not including the cost of the pregnancy tests and ovulation kits. I’m hopeful for this cycle to give you your miracle, but if it doesn’t work out you can use the next few months to save and get in the best physical and mental shape for your eventual transfer!!
@@casey7924 yes but ultimately I want to have my own child so to purposely not try and save for something else is something I have a hard time with. I don’t mind waiting and saving for that but if it’s going to take a couple months, that’s also a couple months of me trying to have my own baby if you can understand that.♥️♥️
@@andreapoole4778 hi Andrea! I totally understand. I think people that can accept children that are not biologically theirs (like your husband!) are amazing. I’m not sure what I would do in those circumstances. I just want you to have a baby as soon as possible. I support anything you do, always!
@@facingthewaves6018 Thanks! And I saw your video and didn’t get a chance to tell you that Dr. Mindy Pelz that I follow for fasting and nutrition has said before that women’s cholesterol is always higher in the first half of there cycle. So to be testing for cholesterol in the front half of a cycle is not accurate and to not worry. You most likely have a normal cholesterol. All of your other numbers that I’m familiar with looked great!♥️
@@andreapoole4778 that's good to hear thank you! I had no clue cholesterol could change throughout the cycle. I was hoping you'd watch and let me know how my hormones looked since I know you're well aware of all the terms and levels😆seems like everything is good, I will be requesting another progesterone check at day 21 though so we can see what that looks like.
@@facingthewaves6018 yes definitely do the 21 day, but actually whenever you have 7 dpo. The 21 day is based off of a 28 day cycle, with ovulation on day 14, so if yours is shorter or longer, just know it’s aimed at 7 dpo. Also taking a b complex vitamin or just a b6 vitamin may take care of your spotting. But definitely curious to see what your progesterone is at 7 dpo!♥️♥️
@@largefamilymama2725 thank you so much! Yes, everyone is clearly in a panic and it looks like it’s going to be pretty bad! Didn’t you say you live in Florida too? Where are you? I hope you’re safe as well and don’t get any damage or lose power!🙏♥️
Hey Andrea, how did yall fair?? Hopefully you're ok! We got alot of rain and wind and our area had alot of flooding but we're good here at my house. Praying for you!
@@largefamilymama2725 oh that’s good to hear! So glad you’re ok! Yes we had barely any rain and some pretty intense wind but only lost power for about 45 minutes! So many others had so much damage and flooding. So sad!😞
Oh Andrea! I just saw this video! I am praying so hard for you! I want you to be pregnant so bad! I can’t wait until next week. Keeping the Faith! Sending love and prayers for a positive pregnancy test next week! ❤️🙏🏻❤️🥰🙏🏻
Well this was a rollercoaster! it feels like these clinics just capitalise on people's emotional needs to get their money! What a swizz makes me so cross
LH is most accurate in the afternoon so that score is awesome!! I don’t think it’s diluted at all. I was told not even to test for LH with first morning urine it’s not accurate. I do wonder if the app is consistent with scoring because if I compare my lines to yours the app would score it much higher , but I’m thinking the pre mom app might be customizing it per persons cycle (like what is their normal, increase and surges - which is pretty dang cool) I hope that makes sense lol, how I wish we all lived close so we could chat and give hugs and support eachother in person ❤
I hope you get pregnant now and don't even need to worry about using to egg donor and ivf. What a joke on those upfront costs! What happens if the eggs don't fertilize? Would you get any money back? Sending baby dust love ❤
@@lexibell2809 I know! It’s just like when I got pregnant with my daughter. It was so easy and took all the stress and ended the financial burden of IVF. I wish I could get pregnant with a healthy egg now and not need any of that stress. They recommend buying more eggs that I believe are about a thousand each? For better odds. No refunds because they can’t make promises of outcomes.😞♥️♥️
I have always right before peak lowest low possible, sometimes the line is almost nonexistent, so for me it makes sense to drop and this is the cue to prepare for the peak. 🤞🤞
Same for me!! I always get worried for nothing because the next day or 2 and it’s blazing positive haha you’d think I know and wouldn’t get worried but I always did 😂
I really hope you have luck this cycle with your own egg. I would love to donate an egg to you! Ive always considered egg donation and my husband has had a vasectomy now so i cant have anymore of my own babies
Wishing you the very best for baby #2! I hope everything works out for your family. I was curious to ask if you're comfortable to answer. Do you have a hard cut off on when you will stop trying all together? I know it's an extremely hard decision and i'm curious on when one knows when it's finally time to stop. Curious for my journey as well.
@@Pald27 I used to think I had one. But now I’m realizing that if I’m still ovulating and I still want another baby then I’ll keep trying. But being at this age I would say it needs to happen this year, whether with mine or donor. ♥️♥️
Did you ever get a period? It could be that your body has been attempting to ovulate but hasn’t ovulated yet, it’s a good sign that your lh dropped. Your body is about to attempt ovulation again 🤞🏾
@@hbic904 jus the small amount I had on that Monday. It showed me that my lining was thin and mostly resorbed. So this cycle I had the estrogen ready and added supplements too!♥️♥️
Am also on cycle without medication, I was not hoping to ovulate so soon. I got my peak yesterday on cycle 12. I normally ovulate late between cycle 17 and cycle 24. TTS for baby #2. It’s good you are testing your Lh.
Idk how to email you personally to ask someone questions so I'll just do it here because Google isn't answering my questions. Since you take the LH tests at the same time as the HCG tests. How do I know what my LH strip should read on say 8dpo if it were detecting any signs of pregnancy? I feel my urine is so all over the place and its hard to get a good concentrated sample but my night LH strips are darker then during the day. Yesterday at 7dpo it was basically not showing a test line, barely there, tonight it read .41 so idk
This thought crossed my mind and it might be TMI or inappropriate but….do you, have an “O” before you inseminate!? I heard it can relax you and create a barrier for the sperm to arrive safely to the egg. Like the pH or something. Anyways, just an idea I had!!
@@catturner23 thank you Cat! People have brought that up before but honestly it’s totally unnecessary and my daughter and every other chemical pregnancy I’ve had prove that it’s not necessary. The sperm go in and do all the work. If the cervix is open and they have easy, fertile cervical mucus to travel in, they will make it just fine. How are you? Have you had a testing period yet? Or are you in a new cycle?♥️♥️
@@andreapoole4778 gotcha!!! I’m prob going to start next week (AF), I’m taking these bloat and menstrual pills I found at the store and my cramps are so much better. I’m usually knocked down three days before due to pain from my Endo. I’m not TTC for Oct bc it’s a girl month and I’ll officially be 45 yrs old, but I’ll start trying in Nov!!! I’m doing well. Praying for you this cycle!! 💐
I can get pregnant every month. I just can’t keep a pregnancy. I’ve had 6 children. After my 6th I’ve just continued to lose every pregnancy. More than I can count now. Over 15. Maybe over 20. That’s been over a 5 year span. I don’t get it. I’ve tried progesterone. I do have clotting g disorder so I do blood thinners the moment I either think I’m pregnant or get the first positive test and I test ridiculously early. Wishing you all the best!
@@lirpa1981 I’m so sorry for your losses. I’m so glad that you were able to have 6. That’s quite an accomplishment and they get to have each other which is so nice.♥️
@@anna-qy8nj yes there are different packages to choose from and the one I picked would be a $10,000 IVF cycle which would get me six eggs but I have to buy the sperm separately which is over $1200
That's so disheartening the way the company treated you. That is a lot of money to put out and have little to no time to think about and figure out. I haven't gotten to watch all of your journey so you may have covered this before. Have you looked into jobs even part time that offer insurance that would cover ivf? That is such a huge experience, it truly doesn't make sense how all insurances would cover for it.
@@liant5802 thank you! Actually my husband’s work did change insurance companies so I will give them a call! I always assume I’m out of luck there but it’s worth investigating!♥️♥️
Are u using other ways to track other that strips an basel body temp. You also can check your cervix if its really high an open it means ur ovulating. If its low ur not ovulating. You also can check ur cm. Clear egg white consistency means fertile. Once ur cm turn back to like cloudy paste ur done ovulating
Dou know if u are ovulating like for sure? Usu ovaries secrete estrogen which inhibit LH. If ur LH is high all the time it meansu may not have enough ovaries aka eggs.
@@paty2216 I do have eggs and get implantation symptoms around five 5 dpo, followed by positive pregnancy tests, which imply that I am ovulating eggs. Thank you for watching.

The sperm go in and do all the work. If the cervix is open and they have easy, fertile cervical mucus to travel in, they will make it just fine. How are you? Have you had a testing period yet? Or are you in a new cycle?♥️♥️
@@andreapoole4778 gotcha!!! I’m prob going to start next week (AF), I’m taking these bloat and menstrual pills I found at the store and my cramps are so much better. I’m usually knocked down three days before due to pain from my Endo. I’m not TTC for Oct bc it’s a girl month and I’ll officially be 45 yrs old, but I’ll start trying in Nov!!! I’m doing well. Praying for you this cycle!! 💐
Just say orgasm 😂! It's not a curse word. 😂
@@elisa7357 I felt better saying O :) Just a personal preference but yes, you’re right. Ty.
Hopefull for a positive test!!!
@@tabithahoward6621 thank you!♥️♥️
I can get pregnant every month. I just can’t keep a pregnancy. I’ve had 6 children. After my 6th I’ve just continued to lose every pregnancy. More than I can count now. Over 15. Maybe over 20. That’s been over a 5 year span. I don’t get it. I’ve tried progesterone. I do have clotting g disorder so I do blood thinners the moment I either think I’m pregnant or get the first positive test and I test ridiculously early.
Wishing you all the best!
@@lirpa1981 I’m so sorry for your losses. I’m so glad that you were able to have 6. That’s quite an accomplishment and they get to have each other which is so nice.♥️
So it’s 10k with using sperm and egg donor per cycle at the clinic that you mentioned? I thought egg donor eggs were much more expensive
@@anna-qy8nj yes there are different packages to choose from and the one I picked would be a $10,000 IVF cycle which would get me six eggs but I have to buy the sperm separately which is over $1200
Going to pray!!!!
That's so disheartening the way the company treated you. That is a lot of money to put out and have little to no time to think about and figure out. I haven't gotten to watch all of your journey so you may have covered this before. Have you looked into jobs even part time that offer insurance that would cover ivf? That is such a huge experience, it truly doesn't make sense how all insurances would cover for it.
@@liant5802 thank you! Actually my husband’s work did change insurance companies so I will give them a call! I always assume I’m out of luck there but it’s worth investigating!♥️♥️
@@andreapoole4778 good luck! I will pray for you the insurance covers even some of it for you!
Praying ❤

Hoping this cycle this baby sticks

I really hope this is it for u ❤
@@kellypalazzi8543 thank you!♥️♥️
Anytime love ❤️
Are u using other ways to track other that strips an basel body temp.
You also can check your cervix if its really high an open it means ur ovulating. If its low ur not ovulating.
You also can check ur cm.
Clear egg white consistency means fertile. Once ur cm turn back to like cloudy paste ur done ovulating
@@jameevineyard1528 thank you. Yes, I know all those things and yes, it was very high and yes, I had fertile CM.♥️
What is your FSH?
Dou know if u are ovulating like for sure? Usu ovaries secrete estrogen which inhibit LH. If ur LH is high all the time it meansu may not have enough ovaries aka eggs.
@@paty2216 I do have eggs and get implantation symptoms around five 5 dpo, followed by positive pregnancy tests, which imply that I am ovulating eggs. Thank you for watching.
