Am going to start my third cycle of ivf next week?Any words of advice would be appreciated.Last two were BFNs?

I defintley have some words of advice for you and a few more :)


First i admire you for not giving up and keeping your head held high threw this , i can only imagine how hard having to go threw this 3 times would be.





But i think that you need to relax maybe go away for a day go get a massage do some thing fun that gets your mind off from it for a while then when you get back you will feel refreshed and ready.I know its hard to be stress free in all of this but think of it like this 0 stress may lead to 1 baby that you desire, My heart thought and prayers are with you I hope that it works for you this time, You will be a great mommy look how dedicated that you are in this. You will be fine and you will be pregnant soon.Am going to start my third cycle of ivf next week?Any words of advice would be appreciated.Last two were BFNs?
Hi Sleephead,


First off, best of luck with this round, I really hope you see a BFP this time!





I am not sure what you have done to date to support your cycles and whether your doctor/s have offered any 'alternative' advice but I'll assume they haven't and tell you a little about what I have found out in some interesting studies.





There have been studies conducted on women who have been undergoing IVF treatment. The one trial in particular that comes to mind involved the use of acupuncture to support the IVF cycle. There was indeed a higher success rate in those women using acupuncture over those that weren't.





I can recall also the study siting that the western doctors could see the improvement but could not understand why or how it worked. Ask a Chinese Medicine doctor and they will be able to explain it to you quite easily...just keep an open mind.





You would no doubt find that many Western doctors will not agree that undergoing acupuncture will make any difference but there are studies that point to it actually doing something. It can't hurt so it would perhaps be worth a try. Just ensure that you see someone who is very experienced and has some success stories to share with you.





I hope this has helped and that you have all the success you dream of.





Michelle.

Hello, I have heard that by the time you get to your 3rd IVF cycle there's a higher chance of it succeeding than not succeeding. Not entirely sure why..but that has to be a positive thought. I have also been told that a course of acupuncture before, during and after the treatment can be very effective. I sincerely wish you all the very best and really hope that everything works out for you...DON'T GIVE UP x
Getting ready to start my second in a couple of months. Think positive and try to enjoy yourself. I feel if it's going to happen, it's going to happen. I WANT it to happen but stressing won't help me or help it happen. Try to get a good support network around you. Speak to friends and family, try to go out and enjoy yourself so you're not just focussing on the IVF. Talk to the Drs, is there anything they can tell you as to why it perhaps didn't work before? Could you change your diet, exercise or stress levels? Best of luck.
I'll keep all things crossed for you if you do for me! I am going to start my fourth cycle next month.





The best advice I can give you is to keep your brain busy and do things to take your mind off the process! I had my best cycle when I didn't think about every little thing I put into my body, took opportunities to focus on myself, did my best to feel happy and positive. The best thing you can do is put your feet up! Whatever helps you to de-stress, rest, and stay calm will help. Your body will be working very hard and you want to give it as much rest as possible. Try meditation, self-hypnosis, and/or deep breathing exercises. If you have an MP3 player, download (or buy) some things at Anji.com! There is one there specifically for IVF gals. I have that one and a few other that I really like. Here is one http://store.anjionline.com/-strse-2/%3C… Get your DH to rub your feet, massage your neck, and soak your feet in warm water. Keeping warm is important, not hot, just comfortably warm, especially after your embryo transfer (ET). I also find that yoga helps to calm me and it is great for circulation. It is important to get your blood flowing into your reproductive organs to help those follicles grow and to build your lining. You can look up “fertility yoga” for some good poses. I have also started acupuncture and really enjoy it! Lots of studies seem to show that having acupuncture close to the time of your ET helps with implantation. You can also start it now to help increase blood flow and then feel more comfortable with it when you have your ET.








Sending positive thoughts that your embie(s) will soon snuggle in! Sticky sticky vibes!



First of all i want to say good luck and i dont no what your religion is but if you believe in GOD everything goings to be ok! Just pray, have faith, meditate in GODS word because he says ASK ANYTHING IN MY NAME AND I WILL DO IT john 14:14 read and see how good GOD works!! GOOD LUCK!! @ GOD BLESS U SWEETIE!!
I will keep my fingers crossed for you! Everyone says to remain positive, and I know how hard that is....but honestly just remain as positive as you can. Visualisation helps too! Visualise yourself with your baby, visualise your pregnancy test saying positive!!! I know it might sounds nuts to some people, but it honestly works!





Tons %26amp; tons of baby dust to you hunny! keep us informed! xxxx

What would be the best advice you'd give to a Taurus?

Mine would be that they can go round obstacles as well as straight through them.





Also whats your sun, moon rising sign. I'm Virgo with Aquarius Rising





If you can think of good advice for any other signs as well that would be cool.What would be the best advice you'd give to a Taurus?
If you have children, don't think of them as your possessions. They don't exist to serve your needs. Don't be possessive of your children or your partners.What would be the best advice you'd give to a Taurus?
I have no advice as I'm just learning about this.... I'm a Sagittarius born Dec 17th ....my boyfriend is a Taurus born April 23rd and the advice given here is exactly things he needs to work on! I
Mine would be ';Being too possessive over someone is never a good thing.'; I'm Capricorn with Cancer Moon and Pisces Rising








EDIT: Whoever gave me a thumbs down obviously has no sense of humor.
my advice to Pisces,learn to control your emotions more,not everything i worth crying for.
My advice would be that it's not all me, me. (My brother is a Taurus)

Everytime you and your gf fight her best friends gonna talk bad about you.... and shes gonna keep saying negative things about you, you dated her sister of course she isMy new girlfriend's best friend just happens to be my ex's sister who i was in a 7 yr realtionship advice help?
If you really like the girl that you're dating, and you're honest then there won't be any problems.
Depends how well your girlfriend knows your ex and whether or not your ex's sister is in the picture a lot or not.
it can if you have no more feelings for your ex, she'll be suspicious about you if you ever wunna be with your ex alone, but she'll probably understand. a line that might work is 'I was searching for my soulmate and it wasn't her, it was you' (don't use that, it's corny)
Not confusing at all..
Seriously? Dude, Cmon. It was 7 years ago, who ***** cares. If she brakes up with you cus of this than shes an idiot to begin with. Dont worry about minor details

I'll be a first time home buyer. Are there any programs that will help me save money on a mortgage? Advice?

I'm prepping to buy my first home but have not found a mortgage agent yet. Is there any advice on government programs for first time buyers? I'm looking for the best advice to save money on a mortgage. Does anyone have any advice on how to buy smart when dealing with real estate agents? Any tricks on how to deal with them. I really want to avoid getting taken of advantage of. Your advice is really appreciated! Thanks!I'll be a first time home buyer. Are there any programs that will help me save money on a mortgage? Advice?
A great place to start is www.hud.gov. This is the official website for the US Department of Housing and Urban Development. They offer a good walk-through of how to go about buying a home. There are also links available to programs for first-time homebuyers, which may offer assistance in lower rates, down payment assistance, or even both.





You also mentioned some worries about being taken by a real estate agent. What you might want to consider is using what is called a buyer's agent. Basically, it puts a real estate agent in your corner too. They will end up splitting the commission with the seller's agent, so they do have some incentive to get you into a home that fits what you want and need.





In the meantime, make sure you are a great candidate for getting approval. A good place to start here is annualcreditreport.com, the official government website to receive a free credit history from all three major bureaus. You'll want to check for public records, ie judgments, bankruptcies, and collections. If there are any, you'll want to get those resolved, or be sure you have the documents you need to show they are taken care of. Beyond that, if you have balances on your credit cards, keep working at whittling those away. Be aware of what ';assets'; you have, things like checking or savings accounts, 401K, IRA, anything you can use to show you have the money to move ahead with this pruchase. Having all this information easily available to you will make the process go much more smoothly.I'll be a first time home buyer. Are there any programs that will help me save money on a mortgage?

Real Estate Agent?


Ouch...


If you're looking to buy a home you need to buy them wholesale and you can't get those from realtors. You need an education on buying properties visit www.platinumreic.com fill out the form and they'll get back with you. Also first time buyer you need a HUD loan as they give you tons of protection conventional loans don't. They can see if you qualify for that as well.





Real Estate Zen
i think the best thing for you to do is refer to your bank.their you can rely sto them such transactions.Bankers can also also advise wha to do so...also try to read first, the book; David Bach's Smart Women Finish Rich or Robert Kiyosaki's Retire Young, Retire Rich...much better you can read this either of this book before your final decision. They are alslo very good financial educators...i think you're familiar to them...
You might want to use a lawyer. Depending on your state, that may actually be required if you don't pay cash, or it may save you money over using a standard title company. One thing is for certain, there's nobody else that is 100 percent on your side when buying a home.





The real estate agent works off of commission. The seller pays that, but that means that the more you pay, the more they get. I'm not saying they are all crooks, I'm saying that you need to consider that when weighing their advice. You want to talk to them a while before shopping houses, you're better off with one you feel comfortable driving around to strange places with, and who knows your tastes and budget and home needs.





The mortgage broker works for a lending company, and is selling a product. There are some really good people out there doing it, but there are some that think it's just easy money. You want to shop around for one you can trust, and I suggest talking to at least three. It'll take that much just to get used to the terminology. Don't waste more than ten minutes with one if they aren't asking you questions; there are more different programs than you can imagine, and to find out which one suits you, they need to be asking a lot of questions.





In case you don't get an attorney, here's two key points to make sure are in the offer you submit. 1) it has to be contingent on a home inspection. It's one thing if they won't FIX any problems, but there are some problems you don't want to buy, or at least not be surprised by after closing 2) contingent on you getting financing; deals fall through at the last minute because of financing, you want to be able to get your money back.





Here's one more thing to bear in mind that your realtor doesn't want you to know, so don't tell them you do know it:





If they accept your first offer, you offered too much.
Check out first time homebuyer programs in you state.





Arizona just got 400 million dollars to offer first time homebuyer's in this state.





5% GRANT never has to be paid back.





Can be used for down payment, pre-paids, closing costs.





Here is the info for Arizona.

fha requires 2.25% down payment.


most 1st time home owners use this program....rates are pretty good for hardly putting any money down.





mycommunity /homepossible is zero down with a slightly higher rate of around 7% for 30yr fixed





these 3 are all first time home buyer programs
I found this web site with VERY interesting advice and proposals. Good luck! http://real-estate-note-buyers.blogspot.鈥?/a>

  • What would be your greatest advice you would give or could give to anyone concerning their Spirituality?

    Don't let anyone tell you what to believe and who to worship or how to worship. Follow your heart and your mind to your own personal brand of happiness and love.What would be your greatest advice you would give or could give to anyone concerning their Spirituality?
    life is not that complicated. we eat, and we f u c k to make more of your kind so they can repeat this process. there is no grand scheme where we march to glory. the only point to life is to survive, procreate, and then eventually die, that's it. there is no such thing gods just like there is no such thing as ghost's, goblins, witches, angels, karma, reincarnation, or astrology. So grow up, there is no great meaning to life, just live it to your liking.What would be your greatest advice you would give or could give to anyone concerning their Spirituality?
    Don't take anybody's word for nothing, demand PROOF, do your own investigation, Because:





    2Jo 1:7 -


    For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Messiah is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.





    1Th 5:21 -


    Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.





    Juce
    Never stop pursuing it. Don't worry about the people who think less of you because you step into their little spiritual deal for a while, look around, learn a few things, and then move on. The worst thing you can ever do is to stop growing spiritually.
    Read. Read everything. Keep an open mind. Remember that no one knows the absolute truth in this regard, and anyone who tells you they KNOW is full of it. Don't buy into extremism or any dogma based in intolerance. Be nice to people.
    Investigate the religion you were raised in. Learn why you believe what you do.





    Then learn about other religions, not to make fun of them, but to learn what you can from them, and understand their culture and point of view.
    HOO BOY Follow Jesus was the best answer there in my opinion


    I was going to say though


    to todays crowd and mob


    You know and now everybody else knows what you think is right and wrong, but, there really is a right and wrong
    Don't let hypocrisy or misconduct of believers or unjust acts committed by believers in the name of God to deter you from an eternity in Heaven
    Forget about religions. Learn about a possible relationship between you and God. Attainable thru Jesus.
    Do some soul searching. What is right for you may not be right for anyone else. Think and decide for yourself. Don't let other people influence you.
    The power,because we can control the power that we give to them.(only if u Can control it)
    Dogma is the Anti-Spirit.
    Follow Jesus
    let your soul be your pilot
    free yourself from the chains of religion
