#pregnancy after infertility

[atouchofflourish]

I can still feel the steamy breeze on that hot July summer morning as I was watering our wildflowers. I was admiring new seedlings among flourishing flowers, and I heard the Holy Spirit whisper, “Levi is here.” In that moment, I could feel God’s wraparound presence and peace. The following day, I took a pregnancy test, and it was positive. This positive test came four weeks after the Cottons…

I love the tradwives who think they speak for the middle and lower classes when they preach about how all families can feasibly have the mom stay home in today’s economy with the right amount of budgeting, only you find out these tradwives have husbands who pull in six figure incomes, lol. Like okay, Little Miss Rich Girl! Keep cosplaying as a lowly working class all-American family, I guess!

#it’s like the infertility TikTokers who cry about needing money for IVF and start GoFundMes #then go off on a million Disney trips after they have a successful pregnancy

Upon further reflection I have decided that I'm no longer allowing my trauma to steal my joy in big life milestones. The timing may not be what I planned, but I want more kids and I'm so so so excited to welcome another baby into our family. I deserve to let myself feel excited and completely embrace it. Does that mean I'm not scared? Hell no, I'm terrified. Does that mean something bad can't happen? Of course not, I'm not naive. I'm just no longer going to let the fear and anxiety of the "what ifs" control me and keep me from experiencing the joy of pregnancy. If something happens then I will deal with it then, but forcing myself to ignore my feelings won't change the outcome. My twins would want me to embrace this with love, hope and joy, and I know they will be proud of me for pushing myself to do that. I also believe in the depths of my heart that they will do everything they can to keep this baby safe.

This pregnancy is real. It's happening, and I'm so excited about it. My heart is bursting with love for this little nugget. So, keep growing little one. I promise to do everything I can to keep you safe, and you just focus on growing big and strong for me 🥰

18 weeks and I failed my 3 hour glucose tolerance test. I'm not at all surprised, it just sucks to have gestational diabetes this early. Oh well, time to switch up the diet and try to get more exercise in.

Otherwise, pregnancy is going well! 2.5 weeks until we find out gender... I'm so excited to know! I need to figure out if I'm sorting girl clothes to sell or if I'm sorting and cleaning. Either way, it's gonna be a mess.

Bulldozer still has to expose my entire belly to "see" the baby. It's adorable. She'll also try to hand me the doppler randomly. She's gonna be a great big sister right up until she gets mad that she has to share me with the baby.

I'm feeling a little bit of movement from baby. I'll feel a couple little thumps and then nothing for days. Just enough to make me feel like I'm going crazy.

Many of women experience c-section scar pain for much longer. Scars after a c-section can be mobilised by a manual technique to improve the skin stretch after 6 weeks of postpartum.

#i have such a hard time with conversations around infertility and pregnancy loss #because obviously that pain is very real and genuine #but i think it is also so so so tied up in toxic ideologies. in the prioritization of motherhood and bio families above all else #i see so many stories of people having miscarriage after miscarriage and #it’s not even that i can’t sympathize with THEM #it’s that i CANNOT understand how the people around them. doctors and family and friends and their SPOUSES. #support what is so clearly an unhealthy obsession. a form of self harm at a certain point. #ultimately it is just one of those things we have to work a generation at a time i think #we can’t undo the social conditioning and trauma that puts SO MANY people in that situation #we have to focus on making sure the next generation doesn’t inherit those same traumas #that same equation of self worth with ability to bear children #but it is still so hard to see how prevalent these ‘infertility’ communities are right now #AND IT FEELS CONDESCENDING TO EVEN TRY AND TALK ABOUT THIS #to look at those communities and go oh the pain you’re experiencing is the result of cultural brainwashing #and i d o n ‘ t want to be condescending or dismissive #but it is just so clearly unhealthy. the way so many of these place motherhood above their own mental and physical wellbeing. #or at least think motherhood is NECESSARY for their mental wellbeing #and are clearly so unable to see another way to live a fulfilling life. to the extent that they risk their own present and future for it. #idk i’m just rambling i just stumbled on yet another community of people talking abt this and every time i walk away feeling #so uncomfortable and unsettled and sad #i hope we as a society can do better next time. that is all. #i say this as someone whose partner desperately wants to be pregnant and will likely need ivf to get there: i cannot IMAGINE #seeing the person i love most experience three. five. nine miscarriages in a row. #seeing them clearly depressed and distraught by this #and thinking YES the correct course of action is to KEEP TRYING #especially not if he wasn’t in therapy. especially when it was against medical advice. #obviously ultimately the choice of whether or not to get pregnant is with /the person getting pregnant/ #but are the people around them not doing ANYTHING?? are they not worried?? #the people in these forums are so clearlt depressed and self loathing and on a fucking ledge #and NO ONE on their lives is pressing them to take a break and get checked out and reevaluate what they are doing and why?

Miracles Do Happen: We’re Pregnant!

Well guys the moment has finally come to share that we’re expecting our little miracle baby in April, 2024. This is turning out to be quite the testimony of God’s sovereignty and faithfulness to fulfill his promises. It would be easy to have an attitude of entitlement for this promised child, especially with two babies in heaven. Through everything we’ve been through, it’s obvious that the gift…

Unraveling Varicocele and Its Effects on Male Fertility

Male Infertility Caused by Varicoceles

Varicocele is a frequently encountered condition that affects the male reproductive system, and it has been associated with male infertility. In this blog post, we will delve into the intricacies of varicocele, exploring its origins, symptoms, and its implications for fertility. Additionally, we will examine the available treatment options and potential strategies to enhance fertility outcomes for individuals grappling with this condition.

Understanding Varicocele

Varicocele is a condition characterized by the enlargement and twisting of the veins within the scrotum. This leads to the accumulation of blood in the veins, resulting in swelling and an elevated temperature in the testicles. Varicocele most commonly occurs on the left side but can also affect both sides of the scrotum.

Causes of Varicocele

The precise cause of varicocele remains not entirely clear, but it is primarily believed to stem from the malfunctioning of the valves within the veins that regulate blood flow. This malfunction leads to blood pooling and vein dilation. Contributing factors to varicocele development may include genetics, hormonal imbalances, and anatomical irregularities.

Symptoms of Varicocele

Varicoceles frequently do not present noticeable symptoms and may go undetected unless identified during a routine physical examination. However, in some instances, individuals may experience the following symptoms:

Swelling or lumps in the scrotum.

Unease or discomfort, especially following extended periods of standing or physical activity.

Testicular atrophy (shrinkage of the affected testicle).

Reduced fertility or difficulty in conceiving.

The Impact of Varicocele on Male Infertility

Varicocele has been linked to male infertility due to its potential disruption of normal testicular function. The increased blood flow and elevated temperature associated with varicoceles can impede sperm production and quality. This can lead to a reduced sperm count, decreased sperm motility, and abnormal sperm morphology. Furthermore, varicocele infertility treatment can also contribute to oxidative stress and hormonal imbalances, further influencing fertility.

Treatment Options for Varicocele

If varicocele is causing infertility issues or discomfort, several treatment options are available, including:

Surgical Correction: During this process, a surgeon ties off or obstructs the impacted veins, rerouting blood circulation to healthier veins.

Embolization: A minimally invasive method involving the insertion of a catheter into the affected veins, followed by the use of a small coil or solution to halt the blood flow.

Assisted Reproductive Procedures: If treatment for varicocele fails to restore fertility, one can explore assisted reproductive techniques such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).

Enhancing Fertility Outcomes

In addition to medical interventions, certain lifestyle changes may contribute to improved fertility outcomes for individuals with varicocele. These include:

Maintaining a healthy weight.

Avoiding excessive heat exposure (e.g., hot tubs, saunas).

Managing stress levels.

Eating a well-rounded diet abundant in antioxidants and nutrients that support sperm health.

Engaging in regular exercise of moderate intensity.

Conclusion

Varicocele is a common condition that can significantly influence male fertility. If you suspect you may have varicocele infertility symptoms or are encountering fertility issues, it is vital to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and a discussion of varicocele infertility treatment options. With appropriate medical intervention, lifestyle adjustments, and, when necessary, assisted reproductive techniques, individuals with varicocele can achieve successful outcomes in their journey toward parenthood.

König baby trapping his online girlfriend on their first meeting in person.

Now, it's not like you wanted to fuck him on your first real date. You're a good girl who knows about the rule of three dates and how to not be a slut on the internet - and in real life, kinda, too. You aren't entirely sure what the policy is if you already had at least ten dates in various games and video chats where you already saw his dick more times than his face. It should count, right? You're not a slut, you're just...a bit assertive. Maybe not that confident. Definitely really, really into him and you wanted to meet for the longest time, but just didn't had time and everything felt so weird at first, so you just began to... He is just so tall in real life, you feel weird even looking at him. He is cooler than he was describing himself before - for starters, he really is huge. Gigantic. Muscular and bear-like, it didn't surprise anyone when you basically jumped on top of him in the first few hours of finally seeing him in person. No one could blame you - he is handsome, rough, and kinda extreme. You finally saw the guy who was showering you in money for the past few days and, really, you don't want to miss out on anything from that experience. You need him carnally, and your lack of dating experience allowed him to go past your alarms when he asked if you really wanted to use the condom. He said it's really hard to achieve orgasm while wearing something as restricting. He said he doesn't really like the feeling of rubber on his cock, and that he is way too big for this. Honestly, his cock does look a tad too big for a condom. You weren't on any pills, but he said it's fine - there is not a chance you'd get pregnant from just one time. He is sure he is like 80% infertile from the service chemicals. He will pull out. Buy you a morning-after pill just in case. The feeling of his cock filling you up with cum is just too much to bear, to be completely honest. You wouldn't exchange it for anything - you love it way too much. Want him to cover you up completely, to take you with him...little did you know that it's literally his plan. When you text him in panic, saying something about missing your periods and asking about the possibility of pregnancy, he would just tell you he is totally fine with being a father. Was preparing his whole life for this. Already bought you a ring and started working on a nursery in his house...oh, you're moving in with him, by the way.
