I really pray that we all get another chance and it brings us our BFP!!!

i wish i has some frozens too. 2 cycles and none


i hope things work out and you get your bfp too

Yolanda- Please feel free to join us. Nothing you could say would be thought of as "silly". We've all gotten our hopes up and made future plans. I think it's part of what helps us get through the rough times.

Indie- I feel like praying is what's been keeping me sane through all of this. You don't always hear what you want, but you will never be abandoned by Him. I feel like I'm being called to wait and finish school, then remember to take care of my two frozens if they're still good and look into adoption. I know it sounds a bit far fetched, but I feel good about having a plan.

Heather- Hang in there hon...it's all going to work out in time, and you will be a great mommy one day.

I just got my follow up call from the study coordinator. It just seems so official doesn't it Then my nurse called me directly after her and asked me about coming in for my free consult following a failed cycle...ugghh. I really don't want to go in because I know it'll just be them venturing a guess at why it didn't work, and seriously, I'm not up for that right now.....the fact that it didn't work is enough for me.

I'm just trying to pray my way through all of this. I am doing some bible studies..etc and really just trying to find my way through all these emotions and deciding what to do next.

I'm just so ??? right now. The BFN haunts me everyday. I try to do other things, carry on my 'normal' life and still all I can think of is 'where did it go wrong'.

Oh well, all I can do is pray and take it a day at a time. How are all you ladies holding up?

Rhart - This was such a thoughtful thread to start. I don't have a "recent" but I've had my share. Like BottleBrunette said, "it sucks to get left behind" and so many of us have been on different threads and have happily watched our friends move on to the next leg of the journey and we're still on the sideline. That being said, I hope this thread sticks around because there will always be someone at this point who will need a safe place to hang out and "lick their wounds". Best wishes to all of you and I hope your 's are on the horizon.

Hello ladies, I am a BFN for this clomid cycle today. I hope I can get an appointment for August with my RE after my surgery to start the IUI process. This is of course if my husband’s swimmers pass their test later this month.

I wish you all success soon!!!!

Just checking in to see how everyone is doing....for those of you who have joined since I posted last, I am so sorry you're here....but glad that we have each other to get through this.

I haven't been on the boards much either. Rose, I agree, it's like I don't want to post my experiences on other threads since it didn't work!

We are very much in limbo land ~ we have not had our post-cycle appt yet either. Has anyone had one? What's it like? Do they review your cycle step-by-step? Indie, I agree, I wasn't up for it either at first.....but now, I'm thinking I do want to have the chance to hear what RE has to say. We are considering going elsewhere....maybe CCRM if we can financially swing it....like kelliejo said, if anyone can make it happen, it will be them!

Our plan for now is to hang out for a few months while we figure out $$. We want to do IVF again, but WILL do shared risk ~ DH and I have agreed we cannot emotionally go into another cycle without a "back-up" plan. Also, DH and I started some vitamins and herbs.....so a few months will give us some time to see how that's working, too.

How is everyone else?

I'm sorry I haven't responded in a while, but I've been in a bit of a funk again. My SIL is about to have her third baby (his second) any day now, and I'm getting worn out with trying to be happy for them. I'm nervous about going back to school full time and working part time. I just can't bring myself to thinking about starting a fresh round of IVF or even trying for FET with our baby-cicles just yet. I hope all of you are doing well.

Hi all, Here's my story......I have been ttc naturally for the last 3+ years with 2 failed IUI's in between. (my dh has a low sperm count and motility). I am really really furiated that every month i dont even have to take a Preg Test, i will get all sorts of symptoms like high acidity, nausea, frequent urination etc. and guess what its all these months. Every month invariably 10 days i am into depression and then get ready (some how) for next cycle. I am scared to go to IVF yet, 'cos its my last hope and i am not yet ready to take a even with IVF, i will be devastated, so trying to postpone it as much as possible.( i am 31 and dh 32) so my age is a critical factor for our planning.
I am not able to take these as the days go by, i b'come cranky as a kid and start troubling my DH. Hopefully we will make a decision on putting an end to this ttc naturally thing and see what is to be done.

It's a great encouragement to be a part of this group!

I will pray for all of us to be out of this misery soon!!

We're all here for you. I'm sorry you're having a difficult time. IVF doesn't have to be as scary as you may be planning. A lot of us have been through it before and would be more than happy to help you through it if you decide to go that way. No matter what you decide to do, you're not alone.
