Infertility

Feeling Down!

I know it's much too early to tell, but I'm 7days past my iui and I feel like it's a repeat of last months iui cycle. Of course I had every symptom you could think of after the trigger shot but those have now vanished and I'm left here feeling pretty good except that I have experienced this last month and that obviously led into a bfn! I'm not exactly sure why I'm posting this, maybe to vent, maybe for reassurance, I don't know... I just had to share and I really hope I'm wrong!

Re: Feeling Down!

  • So I could not sleep because I am feeling the EXACT same way. So etimes I feel really poaitive and u swear u think I am pregnate, and that everythubg worked and then today I just don't I feel like maybe it dis not work and I'm going to be disappointed again. All I can say is that it is too early for both of us and being negative about it us not going to help me have to try to stay positive because honestly it's 50/50 and before the treatment my odds were 0 so tgere is a good chance it worked. But I understand how you feel and that's why we all have each otber. FX and stay positive!
  • The whole process plays on your emotions. Try to think positive!! It's still too early for you to know if you are or aren't pregnant! Try and distract yourself! Best of luck to you both!!!

  • @Cbowden12 I think we've all been there before. I read this on FB recently:

    Sometimes the best thing
    you can do is not think,
    not wonder, not imagine,
    not obsess. Just breathe
    and have faith that
    everything will work out
    for the best.

    I know easier said than done, but being strong never is never easy. FX for you, and for all of us! Sorry you're having one of those days.

  • I know the feeling. Hang in there. I sure hope it works out this time! Fingers crossed for you! What kind of dogs are you painting today? :-) 
  • Thank you everyone! You all are so kind, this process sure puts a toll on your emotions. I have done everything I could to stay occupied today. Dh was awesome and took me out for dinner and we went shopping for bicycles! So my day hasn't been too awful! @AMT&THC no painting/drawing today, but tomorrow I have to do a photo shoot with a little dachshund and will start his portrait in a couple days.

  • I agree with @colleen0156 it's too early to tell so try to stay positive!  That being said, I can relate to you because I'm always feeling the same way in 2WW. 
  • I just wanted to say this time around I was almost certain I was not pregnant and to be honest I still don't feel anything so I'm always wondering am i still pregnant. Before I was symptom spotting even though I told myself not to and I felt all these symptoms and I wasn't. It's hard to not say I felt this way last month so it means the same this month. But honestly you never know until your test. I really hope you get your BFP this process is more emotional than anything.

  • Hi all, although I have yet to start, the first thing my Dr stressed was that my positivity in this process was key....I hope I too can remain that way but I dread may falter....wish you all great strength and endurance in this trip.
  • @krbjoy that's a good little quote thing.

    @Cbowden12 I feel the same way as well.  I'm curious if there is anyone that got a BFP and felt symptoms the week after IUI.  I feel symptoms from time to time, but hard to tell if the trigger shot is still in my system and that is what I'm feeling.  I took HPTs yesterday to see if it might still be in my system and I got 3 BFNs, so I'm assuming it is out of my system now...?  A really good friend of mine told me yesterday she just found out she was 8 weeks pregnant, she had no clue.  She was drinking in Cabo and didn't feel any signs of pregnancy.  To me, it seems like this stage would be really to early to tell and normal that you wouldn't feel anything.

  • @Cbowden12 - I'm sorry. I know that feeling when you think you may be seeing AF but your aren't sure. I hope that it all turns around and you get a big surprise. That would make me really happy.
