Well I did something really stupid. I poas this morning and it was - . I know that there is still a small chance but I have been very upset. I don't feel sore (.)(.) anymore and all of my symptoms have gone except for the cramping. I really think that this cycle is a bust and trying to figure out the best way to deal.

Hi Pris,

I can imagine how you must be feeling. Yesterday I was desperate to POAS, that's all I could think about and I would have bought it but here in Germany the pharmacy closes from 12pm till 3pm for "rest and lunch time" and I forgot about it and went there when it was closed.... then my DH convinced me not to that aftwards and kept me busy and distracted. We went to baby party (he turned 1) and all the mom's there told me NOT to poas, and I decided to try to be strong for a few more days. My beta will only be on Friday. I weighed myself and have gained 2 pounds since my et!!! How disgusting huh. It wrries me because before I get AF I always bloat and retain water and gain 2 pounds..... I can't wait for Friday. Hang in there Pris, I think it is actually too early for you to get a + just yet. Wait a couple more days to POAS again. I am for your !!!

Cathy

I can't believe your MIL did that Cathy!!! I can understand her excitment but that's just so inconsiderate!!! I'd be PI$$ED too. Try to let her know (in a nice way) that what she did really hurt you and now you really don't need that kind f pressure. All you need is to feel supported and loved.

Oh we tried tell her we were happy they are excited but we are scared and want to be sure that there are still may what if's. She didn't want to hear it and wouldnt' speak to me. I'm done with her for a while I had to do that with this last IVF and I will until I'm out of the woods with this BFP

thanks for your support

Pris, I really can't express how sad I am for you. You had your ET a day before me and I had really high hopes for you. I hope you don't give up and take the necessary time to grieve and to regroup, your time will come. I'll say a prayer for you tonight.
