My daughter is 21 months old and according to state law, the daycare ratio for kids that age should never exceed 6 to 1 but sometimes at drop off it’s really high … for example, this morning there were 10 kids and only one teacher… Now, granted the other teacher was down the hallway moving some of the other kids back to that classroom so that they could have two teachers and the max number of kids, but I get uncomfortable with that high ratio even when it’s just for a couple of minutes… I was in the room for at least two or three minutes during drop off and it’s not the first time that it has happened. Sometimes it’s for a longer period of time like they are waiting for the next teacher to get to work so it might be 10+ minutes over ratio by several kids. I love the Daycare in general and the teachers in my daughter‘s classroom. I just gave them an extra cash tip and handwritten cards as a thank you for teachers appreciation week last week. I never make a huge deal about it, but when I do notice that the ratio is too high, I always at least point it out. Hey, you have a lot of kids in here. Do you have help on the way? Or I will mention it at the front desk hey I noticed there were 10 kids in there and only one teacher do you have someone who can help out? I feel a little guilty or bad for doing that. I don’t do it to get people in trouble and I don’t think it’s the teacher’s responsibility other than that they are supposed to call the front desk as soon as they get too many kids. In general I think it’s the management that needs to have better plans for temporary coverage for things like bathroom breaks, moving kids, waiting on the next teacher to arrive… but am I making too big of a deal out of this?

At home tests looking good and dark and progressing well so far, first beta on Friday was 290, fingers crossed for a big number tomorrow… it’s 4 days after first beta so should have quadrupled. Prior losses mean this will still feel far from the finish line, but will still be a huge step forward. Lost our best embryo at thaw, single remaining embryo is a day 7 fair euploid and age/$ means more ERs are out, so this feels very high stakes. Thanks to everyone for all the support with my anxious and crazy questions so far, I have definitely found community here 🩷

First Beta will be on Friday. I’ve taken three tests today like a crazy person ( line is there, slightly more visible than yesterday and the day before but still pretty faint ),
I’m very much struggling to focus on these 80 lab reports I need to grade and recipe in supposed to make for a work potluck tomorrow. Being unmedicated for ADHD so that I can give embryo its best chance is not helping either. I really just want to sit and pee and test and watch lines develop over and over and obsess about them. Ugh. 😑

I’m trying distracting myself but HOW. my husband is very supportive in general but not obsessive or anxious in general about anything… I sent him a picture of the test today after showing him super faint lines for the past two days and he hearted the picture but then said he liked my nails lol …..not what I am looking for.
Advice, commiserating with me, crazy stories to distract me…. Anything is welcome 🙏*** ***

My progesterone dosing keeps going up And up should I be worried? FET was Monday, based on labs that day they added a 200mg prometrium pill every night and increased my progesterone injection 75mg to every day instead of every other, on top of existing twice daily vaginal progesterone cream. Then based on today’s labs they’re adding 2 more of the prometrium pills, these ones twice a day vaginal. Nurse says my Dr is just extra cautious, but can’t help but worry. Semi-medicated cycle.
