I agree with those who suggested looking for a new doctor/clinic. I’m currently pregnant with my first IVF baby, and I used the best IVF doctors in my state. It was concerning to me when you listed the size of your eggs and they still wanted you to wait for the smaller ones to catch up, because I remember the sizes were already way too large and it was clear you were going to lose those larger eggs. They shouldn’t have let them get that large. I believe it’s best practice to suggest to trigger you as soon as 2 eggs get to a size 17-18. That’s what they did with me, and ended up getting many eggs and I am much older than you. One way to find the best doctors in your state is to use the SART report, where clinics report their success rates for IVF. You can also look at the list of Top doctors as voted by their peers on Castle Connolly list. IVF doctors are sadly not all the same and simply switching doctors can make ALL the difference. It’s important to find clinics with the best success rates, because you want to be sure that the whole practice is good at what they do, that includes the embryologists they use! The doctor could be great, but if their embryologist is outsourced or not that great, then they won’t be able to fertilize as many eggs or help them get to blastocyst. Usually clinics with the best success rates will brag about it on their websites.
I'm also pregnant with my 1st IVF baby and agree with you on the egg size thing. My clinic instructed me to trigger as soon as I had a few hit 18-19mm. They collected 19 eggs which 18 fertilized using ICSI and 13 sent off to test. I'm also much older than Mindy. 🤞 for Mindy ❤
@@jesigarcia37 Yes! I am 38 and I had 17 eggs collected when they triggered me at 18mm, 12 fertilized with ICSI, and 7 sent off to test. I wonder is Mindy using ICSI? That could be a game changer for her as well!
I agree too! ICSI is a better option.. and changing doctors 😢
@@MeeraalqasimiI 100% agree. This clinic seems to just want their money. I’ve noticed many questionable things with them over the years. Mindy, I would also recommend reading as much as humanly possible about the IVF process and procedures you will be having. Learn about ideal numbers, what you can do to increase egg quality, etc. Don’t rely on the clinic to give you all your answers. Nobody cares about your health as much as you do so take control of it for the best results.
What a wonderful, informative comment! Prayers and hugs to you! I watch Alessio and Jessi on UA-cam, and they are giving so much interesting information about how doctors differ in opinions globally. They are currently working with doctors in the United States and in Italy. 💜
My fiancé has lung cancer so we are going through that together. This came out of nowhere and changed our lives. I am always rooting, hoping and praying for you and your journey. If you can, please say a quick prayer for him.
Praying for him! 2 year cancer survivor ❤ In God we have hope
@@elvaperez-rd5nb I love to hear that! I'm so happy for you! Much love and prayers and thank you for prayers. His name is Peter and we are having some really hard days lately.
Praying for you
I wish You and Your husband the best.. May he get well
Lots of love and prayers! 💜🙏
I respect that u protect Liam's privacy..so I love hearing him talk..he is growing up!!
I have stage 3 cervical cancer and was recently in this past few days and currently still in the hospital being treated for a pulmonary embolism on my right lung totally freaked out but the staff here are truly amazing caring souls and don’t get enough credit for their profession
I just can’t seem to catch a break but keeping hopeful and and praying for everyone who is going through life’s struggles and health issues much love to you all 🙏❤️

I always like to buy bedding one size larger so it hangs down further on the sides 😊 So a king may work on your queen size bed if its high enough off the ground.
My husband is scheduled for a vasectomy reversal next month so I’m praying for good results with that ♥️ we also just bought a camper to spend the summer traveling around ❤👏🏼
Yay a longer vlog! Hiiyyyeeee Mindy! I’m sending you good thoughts for your IVF journey❤
Praying for you and hoping everything goes well! I am so proud of you and you are so strong! 💕
I was only able to have one daughter. She is handicap ,the joy of my life.
I love watching your vlogs!!!! It makes me feel like I am talking to a friend💗
Liam has such a unique way of interacting with the world. It’s very sweet. He seems very loving.
Keeping you guys in my thoughts. ❤ I’m getting my first set of family/maternity pictures done today as long as the weather stays nice. I’m pretty excited. Sometimes I get in my head about not looking exactly how i want and that’s why it’s been 2 years and I still haven’t had family photos.
Sending you and Larry lots of love! I just got back from a cruise this past Saturday. So, just getting back to reality and life in order. My poor cat Jake now has separation anxiety and not wanting to eat. So that’s stressful. Thank you for sharing your journey with us!
It is going to be fine Mindy! Praying 🙏 and hoping for the best!
Hi Mindy!
My parents just moved from California to Pennsylvania to be near me! It's such a blessing to all be together again 💛 also my youngest son is turning one this month 🥹 he is our last baby so it's hitting me hard that babyhood is almost behind us. Always thinking about your growing family. I pray that whatever is meant to be will be! That peace and grace embrace you in your wait 💛💛
I pray and hope all works for you! Your such a beautiful person inside and out and only deserve blessings
I love a nose tip highlight!!! And life is good for me! ❤I cannot complain right now really! ❤
Sending you and your sweet family all the love and well wishes!
I'm beyond excited to announce that i excepted an job offer at an local hospital as a phlebotomist, I hope that your little embryos make it sending prayers your way 🤗
It’s so fun being a phlebotomist! Good luck!
Ahhh, have a fun evening. Loved the long vlog. Fingers crossed for the 2 beans 🫘 ❤❤❤
I’m glad you asked 😢 sadly my brother became sepsis and had to have multiple amputations to save his life 😢 he’s been so brave throughout this horrible journey
Mindy for the blush swirl your brush around in the blush pan to mix the darker and lighter pink instead of tapping the brush in the pan it should help❤
If you decided to try again if it doesn’t work this time I recommend reading “ it starts with the egg” as well as try to do stuff that would improve your eggs quality.
I can’t believe doctors haven’t looked into why the numbers are always so low. Or maybe do ICSI. Idk just seems wild to me they would let you just mosey on with more and more retrievals.
Great vlog 🩷 come on lil embryos! You got this 🥰
Loved this long vlog! 🎉
Praying for you guys ❤🙏🙏🫰
Bring a sample of the water and algae to a place that handles pool supplies. They can test your water and find out what it is and give you the right chemicals to get rid of it.
I love the voluminous million lashes mascara by loreal. It works so well without getting all clumpy.
My daughters and I had planned on moving back to where we originally lived this summer. Plans changed and we are staying put to take care of some things. We will be in our current place for another school year. Praying for you and Larry. Liam is getting so big.
Oh Mindy! I hope everything goes good for you! I’m sure this is such a nerve wracking time. I’m gearing up to go on vacay and then preparing to move across seas to Japan with my infant and 2 dogs 😬. Keeping you,Larry, and Liam in my thoughts and prayers 🙏
you allways look beautiful no matter what makeup you use. The pollen has been really bad here in Virginia also. Prayers for you and Larry and Liam and your IVF journey.❤❤ 🙏
I'm going to Branson Missouri next week. I'm so excited because we haven't gone on a vacation in awhile. I babysit 3 times a week and just need a break. I'm hoping to hear good news from you. I'm praying for you and Larry. 🙏🙏 see you in the next vlog. Love you guys, Shawn ❤
I’ll be coming to Branson, Missouri next week too-from North Texas!! Have a great vacation! 😁
Hope everything goes well for you 🙏🏽💕 currently tomorrow I have to do an echocardiogram sooooo nervous but trying to be positive about it. I love nose tip highlight too! Swear I feel like I have so much in common with you❤
Praying for this cycle I feel like it's the one, you and Larry are in my thoughts and prayers. I love your beautiful family.❤
Lots of prayers coming your way 🙏It will be so nice for you to have a visit and time with Hilary 🌞 We absolutely adore Luanna and hope some day she is officially part of your family ❤ My favorite mascara is the Bare Minerals Strength & Length Serum Infused mascara. I love how my lashes look, it's vegan cruelty free-clean ingredients. AND easy to remove - you dont have to pull on your lashes to remove it. Let me know if you give it a try!
Praying for your future baby! I truly hope everything goes well for you and your family.
Praying for you hun ❤
Liam is so cute and I'm loving his curly hair!!!
I am a high school dance teacher approaching the end of the school year, which is always bittersweet. I am excited for the summer as I have several dance performances coming up. I love having summers to be able to take a break from teaching, and dance for myself. I am also looking forward to having more time to read. This is one of the most busy times of year for me. I am really tired, but also really happy that my plate is so full of amazing dance-related things. I teach dance at a high school, I teach adult ballet at a studio, I dance on a professional company, and am participating in 3 other independent dance shows. My heart is so full...but I also need a nap.
Hubs and I had our NICU baby last week...born at 35 weeks with induction from me having seizures from Lupus. We have a 2.5 year old and 2 10 year olds, so carpet is for sure our friend and we love it 😂. We had tile in our old house except for bedrooms, the falls are a real thing. And it feels more welcoming to me; doesn't feel as cold when we all walk in the front door ❤. I am absolutely praying that your embryos make it all the way, even if it's just one. I will remain hopeful for the 3 of you. Love yall so much and hang in there sweet girl ❤
I also love the long videos
Hiieee Mindy! We ❤ you guys! Prayers to those eggies! Having a MRI and endoscopy for my gallbladder region. Summer: TN/KY. AND booked Not so scary tickets for August!
Praying for you and Larry during this waiting period, I can't imagine having to wait and not know results right away. Although my husband and I haven't gone through IVF, I feel like I'm right there with you with these vlogs and updates. We're currently expecting with our first baby (a girl, due in August). Pregnancy so far has been pretty easy - no nausea, food aversions, etc. But, I am currently dealing with going to a nephrologist (kidney specialist) due to there being some protein in my urine and I'm taking blood pressure meds to prevent preeclampsia. So many doctor's appointments; it feels discouraging, but I'm grateful that baby girl is doing well and healthy and everything else is going smoothly.
I've got to try the telescopic mascara! I currently use the Essence brand, but it does clump which makes me think I need to try a new formula.
It's getting warmer here in Upstate New York, although we've had some rainy days lately.
Sending ya'll positive vibes and baby dust! ❤✨
Sweet Mindy--I am sending those two sweet fertilized eggs so many positive vibes and sending positive energy your way!
For the book, look at you plowing through them! The past year and a half or so I have not been reading as much as I have liked and you are inspiring me to pick it up again. I LOVED the ACOTAR series--I've read all but the last one to savor it. A Court of Wings and Ruin is probably my favorite, but I am excited to hear how you like the second one, it is definitely much different than the first!
The mascara I randomly found at the airport was MAC's In Extreme Dimension--it was about $28 so it wasn't cheap for mascara, but I've been enjoying it and that's basically the only makeup I wear when i remember to put it on, but it looks so smooth and nice!
I am going to sit out on my porch tonight and read! I just got back from Hilton Head for my best friend's mini bachelorette so I am ready to have a weekend at home. I feel like April was crazy with travel and I am SUCH a homebody! Sorry for the novel--I am only halfway through the video too LOL
I'm also going through IVF and sending loving thoughts for your little embryos. On a fun note, I love Thrive liquid lash extensions mascara!!
I am going through POTS syndrome which there is no cure for unfortunately. I am taking it day by day but watching your videos makes me imagine that im living a "normal" life. Thank you for the videos and please keep them coming to distract my mind.
My husband and I have been trying for a year following a miscarriage at 9 weeks, I just started my first round of femara yesterday. Baby dust and prayers for everyone trying. ✨✨✨
I love your videos I always use the no7 brand I really like it x
I ate lots of chicken when I was pregnant and my daughter absolutely loves chicken!! Also you and me were pregnant at the same time! We gave birth almost exactly a month apart! Love your videos and I’m praying for both you and Larry for a second happy and healthy baby!❤️
Can’t wait for pool and camping, we also starting to get warm and hot weather here in Pennsylvania.
Hoping for the best and praying for peace for y’all, whatever the outcome is. We are about 6 months into trying the natural way and it has been tough so I can’t imagine what you’re feeling. My period started today so thank you for bringing a little bit of light to my day ❤. On a more positive note, my husband and I are celebrating our 5 year anniversary in a couple of weeks and are traveling to Tampa for the weekend (we’re in Jacksonville 😊)! Would love to hear some food recommendations if you have any 😋
Oh I’ve been in your shoes not too long ago, I got pregnant after trying for 7 months and it felt like an eternity. Sitting here with my baby girl sleeping in my arms now. Best of luck to you ❤️
@@christineo7930 thank you! Congratulations on your little girl ❤️
I like the bad gal bang mascara by Benefit. Enjoy your channel very much! Have a great week!
Ulta and Homegoods love them both!
I’m a big fan of a warmer pool 🌊
Loved the long vlog, I only wished the shop with me was longer, But I want to sent to you all the positive energy and goodluck on this journey, ☘️
I graduate from my occupational therapy assistant program tonight and have a graduation trip planned to Orlando in June!!!
Congratulations! 😊
Hey mindy, the glass you poured your smoothie in. Where did you get it ?
I’m getting married in September and going to Hawaii for our honeymoon.
Love you so much and am praying for you through this whole journey
Just ordered my medication for my second IVF cycle. Probably starting towards the end of the month. I did my first egg retrieval towards the end of March 2021. My beautiful daughter was born December 2021.
I had two remaining embryos. I had a missed miscarriage at about seven weeks last August. Failed transfer with my last embryo this past January.
Such a mixed bag of emotions going through this whole process again, however, feeling very grateful that I’m able to do it again.
Sending prayers and lots of hugs! ❤️
@mindyminxx what other book are you reading for May and do a Marshall’s haul
♥️♥️♥️ it’s going to be all good. Sending hugs.😘♥️
Hi Mindy. Wowcombo mascara is great.
Praying for you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🥰
I hope you can turn your current kitchen into your dream kitchen someday! ❤ And I hope we’re there to watch, lol
Mindy I will say always get a second opinion, I went through a situation where I thought because the first time went well with this service next will be great as well; wrong I went for a second opinion and found out I wasted 3 years with that other service. It never hurts to get a second opinion!
Zelda has gotten so big, so cute ❤
Dinner looks delish, looking for new recipes, especially for a big family
It’s so cute how Cosmo luvs numbers , my son is 17months and can count to 3 but that’s about it
I agree with what everyone is saying in the comments, he is exceptional..
My favorite mascara is Lash Paradise in waterproof
Have you tried the tinted moisturizer from Aveda? It’s glorious!
I use L’Oréal voluminous first and follow up with Maybelline lash sensational sky high and I really like that combo because it gives volume and length
Going through researching and preparing for fertility preservation. My boyfriend and I aren’t ready for kids yet, but I’m 37, so seriously considering egg freezing and possibly embryo freezing. Been watching your content because it gives me info on the process and I hope it works out for you! I’m nervous to go through the full cycles, as I’m not trying to get pregnant right now; but desperately want a healthy baby in a few years time. So IVF for no baby. 😂😂
Praying for you guys.
Hello keep your spirits high and positive .
Try not to entertain negative thoughts.
I am enjoying all your makeup product recommendations.
Im in north central wisconsin and we are enjoying all of our migratory spring birds that showed up.
I Wanted to give the monthly book a read so I rented it from the library. Before I start it I am going to finish the book called Going Zero by Anthony McCarten
It is quite an interesting book. Quite eye opening About all the technology capabilities. I am almost finished with it and I give it a 10 out of 10.
Since following your book club Reading some here and there. I have expanded my book genre. Thanks for that.
This will be my fifth book read this year and I can't remember the last time I read that many in one year.
Books are great!
Currently waiting to plan my transfer, my appointment is tomorrow.. try to stay positive.. i had 3 blast.. 2 normal, both boys.. had my heart set on a girl, but will take any healthy baby.. praying it sticks.. i’m turning 37 this month and have no babies yet, fingers crossed
Thoughts, prayers and babydust for you ❤
I am currently on my first ever IVF cycle. I have my FET booked in for next monday!
What color is the NYX Jumbo highlighter stick you used?
Definitely check out Beddies!! Sooo good
Good morning Mindy and Larry and Liam happy Wednesday
I’m exhausted too! Suffering severe depression, but trying to make the best of it. My coffee isn’t working today either. Ate a nice heathy meal and nothing. The weather is so nice today here in Colorado, but I want take a nap !
I’m going to Disney in 10 days!! I’m so excited!!!
OMG, I really love this long video! I feel like I'm watching an episode of a show haha.
It's good to get king size for queen because you get that nice drape over the side of the bed and it gives you more blanket on each side
I am keeping my fingers crossed for you 🙏We did another retrieval in November, and have not had any success with a transfer yet. We are doing another transfer this month, but it is going to be a more modified/natural. So I am only using PVC's, and Clomid. I get to skip PIO this time :-) My transfer isn't for a few weeks still!
I cant imagine what your going threw but I could agree maybe finding a second opinion. I have 3 babies naturally, our 3rd I have to take clomid but that was because of being 36 at the time and my doctor said we needed to get pregnant quicker due to age and medical condition I have, which it worked with some downfalls.. yea I am sorry what your going threw and it's rough with so many emotions.. we prat for you guys ❤
Currently planning my babies first birthday.. no idea how we got here so fast?! He’s my one and only baby 💙 hoping for good results for you 🤞🏼
I don’t have a pool but yes 100% agree with you.. love that feeling of walking into a warm pool
Unless it’s 40 degrees (104f) outside, then you need a cold pool
2 fertilised eggs = 2 blastocysts = 2 eggs ready to implant
Positive vibes 🙏🏻
I love nose tip highlight as well! Praying for you guys for a good outcome with the embryos!! ❤
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️to you and Larry for good news.
I swear by benefit roller lash curling mascara!! I always get compliments on how long and wispy it makes my lashes look🥰 Praying for your two fertilized eggs! The Lord cares about the desires of your heart, so stay strong❤️
The king, just hangs more over the sides of the bed, which is great when you have a mattress topper or something that makes the bed taller than normal
Good morning you guys and you guys stay safe
The Way I Am Now was good but now I need a part 3. 😂
Hello Mindy and have a great day! ❤️🇺🇸
Yay! A long video ❤️❤️❤️ I hope all is well
Currently I graduate with my RN on Friday 5-10 :) I’m going to be a cardiac nurse. Next Monday I get to go on vacation to Branson, Missouri! 💜
My mascara i use for my eyelashes is called SkyHigh mascara but black
I still think it would've been a lot cheaper to reverse his vasectomy .because you did get sperm from him
that his body produced. The problem with the whole nation of pay per service medical is that they are known to tell you that you need this when you might not need that because it would be way more money in their pockets than a reversal. This causes you to come for many doctors visits and a lot more money in their pockets With all the subsequent procedures.
That's a good point! Also, what most people don’t know is you still can get pregnant if you have intercourse with a man who had a vasectomy, but the chances are very low.
you will love NARS Climax or IT Cosmetics Superhero mascaras!
Gamer changer for fatigue/brain fog days: hold off on drinking coffee at least 90 minutes after waking up and moving. Drink your water + electrolytes and THEN make a coffee. It gives your body a chance to flush out the sleepy chemical in the brain, Adenosine. When you drink coffee first thing, the coffee just blocks the adenosine. It doesn't get a chance to flush. And as soon as that coffee wears off, the adenosine is still hanging out, making you sleepy again.
This is just speculation, of course. I have no idea how long you've been awake before making your cup of Joe 🤪
Can't wait for the pool vlogs. Maryland is heating up and I am anxious for my parents to get their pool open for the season!
I have to ask....does your fertility place do ICSI? which is when they actually inject the sperm into the eggs in order for them for fertilize. There is a cost of course but I had that for my IVF and it helped tremendously.
We have spa water here lovely to get into at baths
Mindy when you can use retinol again, go to the dermatologist and ask for a prescription for Tretinoin. It’s stronger than anything you can get over the counter and typically much cheaper with insurance. My sister pays $5 a tube that lasts about 6 months, I pay $50 but it is still more cost effective and beneficial in the long run!
