Oh my flipping stars!! The latest video... .
After alex got home (I think, or before) Phil said “I hope you don’t or didn’t get in trouble for her not gaining weight”). Apparently it’s ok! Cassie is in the 10th percentile for her age and weight. But apparently it’s ok because she’s being breastfed.
If you want to watch Alex dance like a crazy person because she can BARELY get into her pre-pregnancy pants, watch to the end. Phil says I don’t want you EVER to be your pre-pregnancy weight. Alex chimes in and says, I’m not! I’m still 10 lbs over.
And Phil does a “rant” on being positive.
It's amazing to me how a couple who relied so heavily on the expertise of medical professionals to help them conceive, are now so smug and superior towards the medical community. Phil blathering on about "absolute power corrupts absolutely" when Covid restrictions kept them from being in the NICU together. Alex nastily snatching a mask out of a hospital worker's hands. Alex smirking about placing Cassidy's NG tube herself. Them blatantly ignoring nutritional advice and snarking about "being in trouble" over Cassidy's low weight.
If you're so smart and know better than everyone, why not
forego IVF altogether? You can fast, cleanse, pray, and bouncy ball worship your way to your next pregnancy. Assholes.

I skipped thru most of it.I only saw the appt and follow up comments.Alex's screeching like a crazy person and dancing around like an idiot was too much for me

Those two acting all goofy and silly makes me want to hit something. They seem so insincere and it feels like such a show. I hate it so much. Also how much Alex points out that the older girls love Cassidy, we get it, you are trying to convince yourselves that you are such amazing parents. I'm glad Cassidy is okay but I feel so bad for her that she will be growing up with those parents who will try to indoctrinate her into their cult. All three of those girls will hate their parents when they are adults. Family vlogging is on the way out, hope Alex and Phil are saving their money from exploiting their children!

I have zero idea how these people make any money it really confuses me so much. They barely put out vlogs and they don’t do anything else so where does it come from?!

You’ve seen the size of Phil’s parent’s house, right?
Is anyone else feeling inspired by Phil and Alex’s much needed break (from doing nothing). I was, this afternoon I was sitting on my sofa watching TV so I decided to lie down instead.

Yes,I was going to go outside and preach about the virtues of fresh air and nature,but then I realized Alex had already done it,so I stayed in
Gosh every time I watch these people I get more and more disgusted. What’s wrong with having four girls? Many people who struggle with infertility would be delighted to happily take your girl embryos as long as they are viable. Besides, Cassie was the highest rated embryo wasn’t she?Why would they already want to transfer another one that may be even more medically fragile? It would be so stressful not only on Alex’s body but on her mind as well, not even considering the girls(I had two of mine 14 months apart, definitely was not easy and that was with both of them being healthy.)
Also, on their Instagram why are there so many photos of just Cassie but rarely any photos of just Kinsley or just Callie? As a mom of six myself I know it’s sometimes hard to get photos of each child individually, but it is important. The fact that there’s so many individual photos of Cassie makes me feel like the problem isn’t “It’s hard to get each of them apart long enough for an individual picture.”
I think the other embryo is a better grade? I think we all surmised it's a boy,that's why Alex chose the one she did,knowing it was a girl.Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
Also,I' love to have 4 girls as well.It might be better to have girls closer together,they get along better?
My sis and I are 7 yrs apart.We never had much in common.Also,I feel like kids of the same gender tend to pair up.So 3 leaves one out.Jmo
they wanted to implant the 2nd best embryo (we all thought it was because that embryo was a boy), but they ended up going for the best embryo to implant, which was Cassie.

It’s the opposite. The other embryo was a lower grade and they wanted to implant it. However, the embryo specialist (not sure if that’s the right title) told them the likelihood of each embryo implanting and advocated they go with the better graded one. Cassidy’s embryo was much much higher than the other, so they changed their mind. If I recall, the second (probably boy) embryo didn’t have much of a chance at all, so I’m sure that’s weighing on their mind and causing their tantrums.

Ok,thx all.
I'm not crazy about the Gardner quad squad parents,but one of their embryos was a grade D,and it took n split into identical twins.So it's possible it could take

The remaining chromosomal-normal embryo in the freeze is not only poorly graded from a morphological standpoint, it's also been thawed once already and frozen twice. So it's at high risk of not surviving their next thaw, which is pretty shit when you've just spent 2 months taking injections in preparation for it. Alex would love all the attention though and the content she gets from it, so I'm sure they'll see it as a win-win no matter what happens.
Interestingly, it's these poorly graded embryos that split most often into identical twins because the cells are too loose instead of being tightly bound together. It's about 1 in 30 chance of identical twins with a poorly graded embryo. God help us if they we have to live through another "identical twin boys" fantasy fiasco.

Thx,I didn't know that.It's interesting.What causes ID twins has always fascinated me.
One of the Gardner's was Grade A,the other a D.
Yes,God forbid we get the twin thing from Alex again!
I have no idea why all of you lot are talking about embryos when Alex is working her ass off. It’s really stressful getting a chilli recipe off a blog then patronisingly showing people how to put a load of ingredients in an instant pot. You should all be ASHAMED!
