The balancing act of deciding timing

When I post about my plan to start TTC in a few years I get people who advice me to start NOW because it can take a while. This is absolutely valid, you don't know until you start what your fertility is like. For some this kicks off a years long struggle to get pregnant, and for some it just never comes to fruition.

It does get frustrating because I'd love to be in the place where I could just jump in and get it going, but I can't. I'm just starting my career, I'm in a precarious financial situation that I'm going to work diligently to get out of ASAP.

I literally can't and it hurts my heart when people beg me to start now. Even if I had the money to buy straws and pay for the IUI, which I don't, just because some people struggle that doesn't mean I will. And just because it's easy for some doesn't mean it'll be easy for me.

It's a balancing act, and what I can do is start when I am not in a shitty situation and in a better one where I can handle a pregnancy, birth, and child. I can't plan on being one of the ones who do struggle, because if I do and immediately get pregnant... what then? It's just not a good or responsible choice, and I have to be responsible with this, y'know?

Talking to these people reminded me that I can't wait for the best time, but I need to wait for a time where I can be a good mom and provide for my child. So maybe I won't wait until I'm 34, maybe I can get things in good order and start spring 2025 when I'm still 32? That would be nice, and feels better than 2026/2027 that is foreeeeverrrr away.

I can't take my fertility for granted.

Balancing act.

okay so i'm in the process of rereading pjo and i just got to botl and i want to talk about my girl annabeth. i feel like a good majority of the fandom mischaracterization of annabeth comes from botl, specifically because she was rude to rachel throughout the book, and then everyone just assumed that because she wasn't nice to rachel she must be a bitch inherently, on top of being this fucking emotionless shell of a person, which is wild to me because i don't know how her being rude to one (1) girl automatically discredits everything she's done in the past three books. i feel like it stems from a complete misunderstanding of why she was rude to rachel. let's make this clear: she wasn't rude to rachel because rachel was a potential love interest; she was rude to rachel because she was scared.

everyone she's ever loved has been taken from her in some way: her mom being absent because she's a goddess and not really wanting anything to do with annabeth; her feeling like her dad and stepmom didn't want her around (losing her real family); thalia, her found sister, sacrificing her life to save annabeth, and then leaving her again to join the hunters; luke betraying the camp, but more importantly betraying annabeth on a much deeper level because he was her only family. he promised her that he would be there for her, no matter what, and then he leaves her, just like everyone else. even grover left her, in a way, because he went out to search for pan and wasn't around. the only close person who hasn't left her at the point of botl? percy.

but she knows about the prophecy at that point, so she's spent the better part of three years resigning herself to the fact that her best friend is going to die when he turns sixteen and there's absolutely nothing she can do to stop that. she's spent the better part of three years trying not to fall in love with him because it would only hurt worse when the time comes. if i had to bet on it, the reason she was thinking about joining the hunters in ttc is because if she isn't around him (and also can't because she's a hunter), she won't become more attached to him than she already is. if she separated herself from him, it would hurt less. except here's the thing: by that point, she couldn't make herself do that. she couldn't make herself willingly give up percy yet, because it might not have been him. if i had to guess, when thalia came back, annabeth stopped worrying about percy dying---just for a little while---because she thought that thalia was going to be the child of the prophecy after all. so when thalia became a hunter, she was mentally prepared to lose thalia again. but that means that every fear she had about percy being the prophecy kid before thalia came back to life resurfaced full force, and now suddenly annabeth has a year and a half left with him when she thought that she might have longer. so despite the thought of her joining the hunters to prevent herself from getting too attached, she hadn't metnally come to the point where she was ready to give up the small hope that he would live.

which bring us now to botl. like i said, i'm just now rereading the book (and i'm only on chapter 1 but i started thinking about annabeth and here i am). annabeth is mean to rachel because she's terrified of losing percy too soon. sure, at this point she knows the prophecy is his, she knows come next summer she probably won't have him anymore---but that's just it: next summer. she's preparing herself to lose him in a year, not immediately. so when someone comes along that presents a way for her to lose percy, of course she gets scared, and she gets defensive about it. it's not even the fact that rachel was a potential love interest, it's more so the fact that rachel was a mortal, and not part of their world. if percy was with rachel, there's a good chance he'd try to leave the magical world behind, and, more importantly, leave annabeth behind, which she wasn't ready for yet.

hell, that's exactly what ended up happening in the beginning of tlo! annabeth wasn't upset because he was spending time with rachel, she was upset because he was spending time in the mortal world rather than her world and, in her mind because of all of her past experiences being abandoned, that translates to "percy is leaving her," and it was way earlier than she thought, and she wasn't ready. so what does she do? she tries to protect herself. she puts walls up and tries to act cold and distant because she's coming to terms with the fact that she's already lost him. she's already lost him.

and like, was she jealous of the fact that rachel was a love interest? probably, yeah. but i think it's also just important to know that there's something way deeper to it. annabeth isn't being a bitch for the sake of being a bitch, and she's not just jealous of rachel because she was a girl that liked percy. she was upset because he was getting further and further away right in front of her. he was leaving way quicker than she was prepared for, so a lot of the stuff she said to rachel came from a place of fear of losing percy, and anger at rachel for trying to pull him into the mortal world, effectively leaving her behind and adding another person to the list of people she loves that have left her.

#anyway i'm just thinking about my girl #annabeth chase #maybe as i read i'll update this post lol #like i said i'm on chapter 1 of botl so i haven't even gotten to what i talked about yet #but one of my biggest pet peeves is when people think annabeth is just a flaming bitch #like NO girl she was literally terrified #pjo reread

I would think as someone struggling with infertility, you would want to see a trying to conceive storyline on tv? Why are you against Nolan and Bailey getting that?

Hi.

Well, this one took some time to process how I wanted to properly address this.

First, allow me to say that anyone going through an infertility journey will have their own unique journey. We all have different wants, needs, expectations, and certainly opinions on what we want to see depicted in media.

I personally never wanted a baby storyline for Nolan and Bailey. It feels like it came out of left field, and I preferred them as a child free couple and having that representation on tv. It's especially jarring to see this storyline unfold when Alexi specifically stated he was not going to write Jenna's pregnancy into the show. And to his credit, technically, he hasn't. Who even knows, maybe this storyline will end with them not having any children. We still don't know where it will lead. But when he said he wasn't going to be writing her pregnancy in, I took that to mean there would be no baby storyline whatsoever for them.

I went into this season under the assumption that there was not going to be a pregnancy storyline, so I didn't prepare myself for that to be detailed.

The other thing about trauma, is it has no rhyme or reason to it.

You can think you've made peace with a situation, only for it to sneak up on you and smack you in the face.

For a show that had three surprise pregnancies, yes, you're right, I would like to see more of a trying to conceive storyline or even an infertility storyline. But I was hoping that would be reserved for Tim and Lucy, because again, I was not expecting Nolan and Bailey to want kids, and I wanted them to remain child free. It just fits their storyline more in my opinion, and a child free couple by choice is also something I wish to see depicted more in media because it's a valid life choice that is underrepresented.

TLDR; Yes, I would like to see more TTC or infertility storylines depicted in media, just not for Nolan and Bailey.

Harkles are definitely trying to come back with or without charles support cant be sure but I don’t believe him. Invictus games in 2027, this year service at st pauls cathedral (probably will take the children to do their debut as prince and princess), hiring a pr guru for uk popularity etc, all of these preparations are for them to make a smooth comeback. I have 0 doubt now. Even if charles isn’t involved in this (which I don’t believe) he still does nothing to stop it because all what matters to him is to give constitutional job to camilla that she shouldn’t be doing. When has queen mother done something on behalf of the king? A much younger then william, then Princess Elizabeth in 1951 lead the ttc because the king was ill, not his consort but his heir.

my favorite thing about the duck shuffler plush trailer is the implication that all the next-level reality-bending associated with the high roller comes from buck. it's not special, and it's not something unique to the high roller; buck can just Do That. he can restore color to a monochrome world at the clench of his fist, nbd. the high roller's ability to levitate and be literally invincible, normal tuesday for buck. being that he seems to have some kind of direct control over light (the restoring color part of the trailer), he can probably do the silhouettes thing like it's a lame party trick, and he simply never gets a lucky enough thpin to make it happen in a fight against toons on the streets of TTC. it makes total sense now that i think about it considering how Wager Management is itself straight up reality-bending in a different way from the other managers' (since many of their cheats bend reality in some way). altering toons' dna instantaneously to literally species-swap them into ducks, summoning giant bars, etc. just imagine him accidentally using Wager Management as his lever gets caught on a doorframe (equivalent to stubbing your pinky toe), and before the outcome settles, he's gotta prepare for either summoning jellybeans all over his office or, idk, fusing with the nearest cog and literally, irreversibly breaking the fabric of the spacetime continuum. casually. in a casual way. like, he does it all the time, by accident. insane.

#absolutely obsessed with this realization. i wish i had considered the depth of his abilities sooner #seeing him levitate in the trailer made it click for me. i was like OHHH ALL OF HIGH ROLLER'S FUCKERY IS BUCK. IT'S ALL BUCK. #Like i had already understood that high roller's GENERAL CHAOS was all buck but i hadn't realized just how direct and unchanged it was #buck is actually THE strongest manager in terms of potential and he just gets super unlucky thpins... #ttcc #duck shuffler #buck ruffler #original

Op your post and tags about Artemis doing damage control is absolutely delightful.

I mean, from Titan's curse we know Artemis was trying to get the council to prepare for the war, recognizing what was happening, even before the war gods actively acted.

Also Apollo getting a ping when a new possible child of the prophecy gets born actually makes sense. He knew how old Thalia was, he's also a god of truth besides just prophecy and during the years of the Hunt functioning I doubt the only big three kids to join are Bianca and Thalia. The chances are really small for that to happen.

It could also be Roman demigods, since literally anyone can join and it's better to be safe than sorry. And since it was 'child of the eldest gods' and not specifically the big three, she might have even counted in children of Demeter, since Hestia and Hera don't have (in Hera's case demigod) children.

About anon that Artemis acted predatory: bestie do you want the prophecy to happen? Do you want to risk Olympus falling?

And the average life expectancy of a Greek demigod is like 13 years old, were it not for them, the squad at Westover would have little chances of survival at the age they were at. Also statistically, the Hunt even helps to get demigods the chance to reach the camp by killing the monsters.

In conclusion: was it sketchy? Sure. Was she lying tho? Not at all.

From the few Hunters we got the chance to meet, sure, Bianca was really young when she died, but Phoebe and Zoë were thousands of years old. Let's do the math. If Zoë had been with the Hunt for let's say 3 000 years, and Phoebe for 2 500. Bianca died at 13 I think? Even these three on their own puts the average life expectancy of a Hunter to 1 838 years. And that's a bit higher than the chances of Greek demigods.

Artemis literally is doing the absolute most of a damage control.

(also personal headcanon that Artemis sends the Hunters to the camp instead of being on their own so they were safe from Orion since he usually targets them when they're alone, and being without Artemis who even got stolen and physically cannot help would be quite a chance to miss)

I love your username!

It always interests me how out of all of the gods Artemis is the most involved in the everyday lives of demigods. Mr. D helps run the camp, but she spends her time with her hunters, fighting with them and forging relationships. She’s notable in TTC because when the gang is fighting Atlas with her, she feels like a comrade more than a capricious god.

She’s not above criticism, but even taking my Great Prophecy Damage Control read out of the situation, she does more to directly help demigods than like. Any other god. So when I see wild criticism of her like “if Artemis hadn’t recruited the girl who admitted she might have destroyed Olympus if allowed to age then Hera wouldn’t have targeted Thalia so much. She was really just mad Thalia foreswore her only family in Jason. Isn’t Artemis so bad and evil???” It’s kind of like. Why are you bending over backwards to vilify one of the only gods consistently fighting and advocating for our heroes.

(Btw yes that is an actual take I saw in a fic.)

And you’re right on the Hunters ages!! Like we have several girls that have been around for thousands of years!!!! We have like five named Greek demigods that have lived to the age of eighteen in the original series, and over half of them proceeded to die anyway. Artemis is obviously doing something right to keep her girls alive this long.

With the fic idea… I may just have to write it when I get a chance. If I remember right, I don’t think the Romans were in line for the first Great Prophecy anyway, but it would be so funny if Artemis was like… fuck that. If I have to keep cleaning up my dad and uncle’s messes then I’m going to clean up all of them and get more hunters out of it.

Anyway thank you for the ask! I had fun making the post but then the anons I got kind of soured it :\ so I’m glad you like my thoughts!

[ikeasharksss]

taking a study break to say this. i think one of the reasons the stakes in hoo feel less high than in pjo is bc of the pacing of the giant war.

let's compare it to pjo's titan war. the pjo series lasts roughly 3 years, & we see the conflict grow across all 3 years. for the sake of my argument i'll use the publishing year for tlt (though we all know time doesnt exist in the rrverse): tlt begins in summer 2005 and we see luke start the conflict & introduce it to the reader at the very end (like, the last chapter). then we see luke's forces in the next book in summer 2006 (tsom). then we see his alliances w/ titans in december 2006 (ttc.) then war begins in summer 2007 w/ the literal battle of the labyrinth. it jump starts war preparations that we see in the beginning of tlo, which is set summer 2008. that's 3 years of watching the conflict grow into a war.

hoo doesn't take that much time. based off the dates from pjo: tlh begins in december 2008, & the giant war is won in august 2009. that's nine months. nine months for a whole war to grow & end. compared to pjo, it doesn't make sense. it took 3 years for kronos to throw a wide scale war w/ godly allies, titan allies, & a monster + demigod army. but gaea can do all that in less than 9 months? while asleep? literally how does that happen. & chb had a whole year to prepare for the titan war, how could they have won the giant war in less than 9 months (considering the time it would have taken to heal & rebuild from the titan war)?

additionally, we only see the 7 for like 2 months. that's a fraction of the time we see percy & chb prepare for the titan war. so it's hard for pjo rereaders (both ppl who read before hoo & after) to fully comprehend the stakes of the giant war. k thx

I am seeing them going finally to balmoral this year, or even at Christmas.

The royal community should be prepare for the worst PR nightmare from the Harkles and the palace believing that the ‘popular thing to do’ is to act as if everything is forgiven and forgotten.

I really hope that at least 1-2 staff/members of the family are wise enough to see the full picture and not fall for the ‘desperation’ such illness bring to all the family and fall for the forgiving PR

So last year I was surprised that there was ZERO PR about H&M and their kids on the TTC balcony. Or any PR of them attending for that matter. This year I do predict it will be different.

I can see them starting to come back for the publicized events. They won't go to Balmoral because Meghan hates the country and that is not her cup of tea. Christmas I can see but she will be bitter because they don't have an estate on Sandringham so they will have to rent or stay with KCIII which she doesn't like. Plus it will cause her to half to walk back the reasons she didn't go in 2019 because the kids are kept apart from the adults.

[jackhues]

mitch will talk and talk and talk about absolutely anything, so like you've got to be prepared for it - esp after a practice or game

omg, i agree. like the leafs just had their outdoor practice today, so you're mentally preparing yourself for mitch coming home and when he does, you think you're ready for it.

and like always, he'll come home and talk about absolutely everything, how many people came up to him to grab some pictures, how the team was smushed together in the ttc, how some little kid got excited after he signed his jersey, just everything.

and as he talks, you start to realize that you don't have to always mentally prepare yourself. you like hearing him talk about this just because he's so passionate about it. like you can't help but smile to yourself as he rambles on and on.

and mitch knows you well enough to realize when you're not in the mood to hear him talk. if you've had a long day, or aren't feeling well, he'll tone it down without you needing to ask him.

Hello! SMBC journey starts here

This is my introduction post because... this will be a long journey that will take a few years, but it involves a lot of introspection, choices, and stops along the way.

Short facts:

I'm 30 years old (1992)

Chronically single and queer

A librarian

Planning on TTC in 2026

Primarily want to do IUI but might do IVF

Doing ID-release donor

Longer story

My name is Rebecca, and I'm a 30 year old Swede who realized a long time ago that the only way I wanted to have a child was doing it on my own. There's a lot of reasons why I came to this conclusion was that I never came across anyone that I both felt that I wanted to spend my life with and shared my central ideologies and thoughts on child rearing.

Then, a few years later, I realized that I'm aromantic and asexual (closer to demisexual but not quite)... and that put a damper on things. I realized that the partner I would want was a unicorn! There's a laundry list of things in a partner that would make me feel comfortable with them, and then to have some form of attraction to (which is complicated as an aroace person bc once in a blue moon it kind of happens?) plus all these other things. Through so many dating apps and trying, and introspection of the fact that I am probably not an ideal partner for anyone either. If it happens, it happens, I just doubt it.

After this I spent a few years working with myself. I wanted to be sure I wanted children, if I would be okay with a life without children, how to bring a child to the world in the most ethical way, and how to go about it realistically. I had doubts, because I developed chronic migraines, I had a severe burnout, and was diagnosed with ADHD and autism earlier this year. At first when I was diagnosed I thought becoming a mom was off the table, but after working on myself and finding resources that will work for me, I know I can do it, and I can make these thinsg my strengths. Except the chronic migraines, but I have a very good treatment for that right now and am down to 2-4 migraines a month which is amazing, and I'm trying new medications to get the best combo.

Finally, I decided that this is what I want to do. I had this idea that when I was 33 I would go through it, because 33 seemed like this perfect age. As I'm nearing 31, though, this timeline seems a bit tight. I'm just now graduating, with my second degree, as a librarian, and I'm starting my career in august with severe debt and a horrible credit score. So, you know, need to work on that to provide a stable home for a child. I also need to move to a bigger place.

There's quite a few things I can do prior to all this. I'm building financial and housing security, I'm working on myself and creating healthy and mind boosting routines which will enable me to provide a good mom to my child. There's a lot to work on here, because there always is.

I'm listening to donor concieved children and adopted children and their experiences and desires in all of this. I am aware that there are plenty of donor concieved children who are against what I'm doing, and I do appreciate them, I cannot assume what my future child will/would think about it. I am doing this research because I want to meet the needs my child may have.

I'm doing research on evidence based child rearing, child psychology/physiology and how to best support them through different developmental phases. At some point I will also decide on media policy, which is the thing I'm most undecided on (I'm leaning towards yes pictures on closed social media with curated and known followers and pictures that take the child's current and future dignity in mind, and maybe non-face pictures on open social media after 8 weeks - before 8 weeks all babies basically look the same). So much to think about!

Then finally, financial and housing, as I've touched on before. I have a plan to get mostly debt free before I start the process. My current apartment is small, and I could live in it until the child reaches about 3, but ideally I'd already be living in a bigger place by this point.

The practical

So uh... what am I doing?

I'm planning on doing an IUI with a donor where the ID will be released when the child is 18 (and I'm going to offer to pay for all the DNA services available if that is what my child would want).

There's a few questions I have prior to this about my fertility. This month I'm going to be removing my IUD (if all goes well) and test to see how I do without it. In the autumn I'm going to take a few months to track my cycles with ovulation strips to see if I'm ovulating regularly or not. Then I'm booking an appointment to check my ovarian ducts and to see about my fertility levels like ovarian reserves etc.

I want to know that an IUI is a good choice for me because the pregnancy rate isn't very high, and I have endometriosis. IUI is cheaper, but if I have to spend many cycles going through it... it will get more expensive than IVF. So, I want to go through this as soon as possible so if I need to I can do an egg retrieval before I get "too old". There are more complications as you age, as everyone knows, and doing an egg retrieval earlier may mitigate things like chromosomal abnormalities.

While I know my family is very fertile, this is not a guarantee that I am. Prior gynecological exams have shown that I do have healthy ovaries so... but information is good, IMO.

IUI for my profile, as I know it, has a success rate of up to 15-20% (and after about 3 tries you go to IVF anyway where I'm looking), the higher end being assisted cycles with hormones. IUI does have an increased risk of twins/multiples and this... is not what I'd want. If it happens it does, but there's so many risks and it's way more difficult. IVF has a roughly 50% success rate if you have no known problems, so getting pregnant within 3 tries is highly likely.

3 cyles of IVF excluding donor sperm and medication is €6400

3 cycles of IUI excluding donor sperm and potential medication is €2400

The bonus of IVF: one retrieval round and one donor sample, but each IUI you have to buy donor sperm which can range from €800 to €3000 (highest I've seen), and with IUI you need the more expensive sample (higher sperm count and better motility) whereas with IVF you can get the lower rated. However, there's more medications that can increase the costs of IVF, and possible complications to both me and the fetus (IVF conception for some reason increases risks like heart defects).

This is why you have to take time to decide.

Long story short: this is the start of a multi year process, and this is my journey there

Hello Friends 💙

I'm Shay and I'm 20 ❤️

I made this blog to help me talk about my struggles whilst trying to conceive my second child with PCOS.

I was diagnosed when I was 16 and was warned I would have trouble conceiving children in the future, this devistated me because all I have ever wanted to be in with world is a mother.

When I was 19, I met my soulmate. And 2 months into our relationship we found out I was pregnant.

It was a complete accident but we were still over the moon and so excited to be parents. I loved being pregnant and I was very prepared to be a mum.

At 20 weeks, my waters broke. We were assured there was still a chance we could make it to viability but unfortunately 3 days later my sons cord fell through my cervix, which sealed our fate.

Our son, Aspyn, was born 3 days later at 21 weeks. He passed during birth.

TTC after losing a child is hard, but its a hell of a lot harder with PCOS. It's been 6 months since my son passed and I have only had 1 period in that time.

I'm here to lose some weight, impliment more positive changes for my body and kick PCOS's ass so my partner and I can finally give birth to a child who can cry when they're born.

Everything I do is with my son in my heart, he can never be replaced or forgotten 💙

Taking Your Time Back

I went back to work for the latest season of Murdoch Mysteries where I work as an illustrator and graphic designer. As good as the job is, it leaves very little time for creating personal work. I have a 50-hour work week plus a daily commute of 2 hours (1 hour each way).

But I know that the way to keep from burning out as a creative person is to make sure that you create things that are personally important. This is different for every person. For some it'll be cooking, or journaling. for others, it'll be making bespoke guitar pedals. For me, it’s drawing and painting.

I've struggled with burnout for most of my working career. So learning how to make time to create personal work is an ongoing goal.

For the Last 2 years I've been privileged enough to have the use of a company car to drive myself to and from work. This year I decided to give this up so that I can take advantage of my time while on the TTC. To reclaim some control over my time.

In the car sure you can listen to a podcast or audiobook, but you don't take much in because the focus is on driving. But on public transit, as long as your noise-cancelling headphones are working, you have many more options.

Mostly I take this time to do something that is relaxing, to wind down, like playing video games or crocheting. I also take time to do sketching.

The sketch pictured above was in preparation for the painting I'm currently working on. And I have to admit as I write this that I smile just thinking about it. It’s like I've regained a little bit of my own time. As simple as this sketch is, it was beneficial because it allowed me to explore a few ideas I had been toying with in my head.

Yes, I'm still stuck in a long commute. But I get to use that time to do something that I value. By taking advantage of my commute time on public transit, I'm reclaiming some personal space for creativity. I've found an opportunity in what is usually a hindrance. Life is hard and we all need to find ways to make it more personally meaningful. How will you carve out a bit of time for yourself?

Bye for now! -Olivia
