Unhappy Please help, having a bad week.....

I know you ladies are the champs at cheering everyone up. I have been having a hard week because I feel like no one around me knows or cares what I'm going through. Tears have been frequent and I'm starting to lose hope. Any encouragement would be great!

all i can say is that it is going to happen for you.....i felt the same way so many times during the past two years......i was tired of feeling that way and finally i decided i can't keep doing this.......i picked myself up and told myself that no matter what i will be a mother and that god will not forget about me....i have my days, but i was sooo....depressed for so long that it really started to consume my life....it's ok to cry and let it out, this is why we are all here, but please don't give up!!!!!!!hugs!!!!!!

Jen is singing "Sarah smile...". Okay, I can't sing worth crap. Don't lose hope. Look at me! I have had a crappy week (almost 2 now) but still I know it will happen for me. And I KNOW it will happen for you. You need a glass of red wine. Red, cause I like red and I can't drink until all these meds are out of my system.

Cheering for Sarah!

Hugs for Sarah!

Sara, Big Hug. It is so difficult when now one you know really knows what you're going through. Even though your DH is in this with you, he doesn't really know how you feel. It is tough to deal with all this infertility crap! Your hormonoes get out of wack and no one seems to care, but they really do. They just don't know how to act, because they haven't delt with it. Heck, my MIL said after my failed FET, "it just wasn't ment to be", up yours, I thought! I just never understood that statement, does she think am I a bad mother to my son, I don't deserve another baby? We are all ment to be blessed with as many babies we want and can take care of. Sometimes even modern medicine doesn't come through. But I'm trying one more time, as you will and we'll show them, with our BFP!

Oh hun I am sending you a big hug. Sometimes when I feel down I spend a day hosting a pity party for myself, and cry as much as I want but at the end of the day I pray for the strengh to pick myself back up.

You are a strong woman and will march on..... and for that you will be rewarded with a BFP!!

hugs to you

Miranda

Okay, some think this is weird, but I do believe it works.....when you send positive energy out (thoughts, actions, spoken), you get positive energy back. It is tougher than it sounds, but think of the environment you want for your baby, and that usually helps. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon.
