Secondary IF

Yesterday was the worst day...

I started bleeding, had a negative HPT and knew IVF #4 was a failure just like every other cycle the last year and half. Then as if that wasn't enough for one day we had to put our dog Groucho to sleep last night. I'm seriously hanging on by a thread and I think I'm done. On a side note if I hear one more "when you stop trying it will happen" I'm going to snap. Sorry to be a Debbie downer. 2IFs support has meant the world to me. I'm not sure if I'll be back or not, but for now I'm taking a break from everything and going to focuss on my family. Love to all and best of luck!

  • I am so sorry you had such a craptastic day. First, to lose a pet is a huge, emotionally-stressful time. Our pets are family and it hurts when we have to say goodbye. I'm already dreading that day. And then to have a failed cycle to top it off? You have every right to be upset. 

    I hate that advice, "Just relax -- it'll happen." "It'll happen when it's supposed to happy." (No s*) I think we should come up with some sort of quick, one-liner response to spit out at the next person who has the audacity to say something as stupid as that. Gosh, we could have a whole post on horrible TTC advice.

    In any case, I agree with KC. Permit yourself to let your emotions out. It'll feel so  much better once you do, and then you'll have the fortitude to proceed in whatever way feels right for you. 

    Hugs!!
