IUI #1 = Failure

MAK06 · August 2009

I knew our chances were low so I was not overly optimistic. But I still held onto hope.

I am sad, mad and scared. Sad that it didn't work and I am childless. Mad for everyone who has to go through IF, including us. Scared that I will never be blessed with a child. Scared that we have years of struggles ahead of us. Pissed off at all the people in the world who are insensitive to IF and to me (even though they don't know our situation).

I know I am blessed with many wonderful things in my life that I am truly grateful for. I feel guilty being so upset when overall I have a wonderful life. Some of you here have had a much longer struggle. I wish IF would just disappear for all of us.

I know exactly how you feel. I had so much hope for the first IUI. trust me, you will be a mother one day, and when you get to motherhood it will be the sweetest gift.

I am sorry your having such a bad day. I am too. I hate IF, but i hope one day your will get your BFP.

I am sorry you had to face the disappointment of a BFN. IF truly sucks. Hang in there, you'll be a mother to a child someday.

I am sp sorry for you and feel for you. I know what you mean by "trying" not to think positive I just had my first IUI a few hours ago and I just tell myself the odds are not that great "it is what it is" My insurance will not cover IVF until I try this at least 3 times so I see it as a step in the direction I need to go. Next month is almost here so start the pills and shots in a few days and be prepared for the negative but secretly pray for the positive.

when the first IUI fails, it is SO hard. so don't beat yourself up. its hard not to want to give up hope in the whole process. but stay strong, better days are ahead i promise. hang in there and take good care of yourself. (((HUGS))) i'm so sorry!

I'm so sorry, and I totally know how you feel. My first IUI just failed too. It sucks, and you're entitled to feel all of those feelings. Try to keep your head up though, you WILL be a mom one day.
