Trouble TTC

Another ugly BFN

Well, I POAS this morning (14dpt, 12dpo), and it was negative. Again. I'm extra-bummed about it this time because I felt so positive about this cycle! Last cycle, I had a gut feeling (even before I bought the HPT) that it didn't work. This time, I was so sure it was going to be a BFP! And of course the higher you are, the harder you fall.

Now I have to do some serious thinking about what to do next. DH suggested that we take a break over the holidays (I think because he doesn't want to deal with the CloMonster over Christmas). I was initially resistant, but then we found out that he's going TDY (temporary duty... we're Air Force) to Alabama in June and July, which would be at the end of my hypothetical pregnancy (assuming I get KU anytime soon). So now I don't know... maybe we should wait to start the next round of medication.

Ugh..... I know I'm not officially out until AF shows her ugly face, but for now I'm just sad. And now I have to go take care of other people's adorable two-year-old children. Maybe it's time for a new job...

Sorry for the vent. Hope everyone else has a much better day!

Re: Another ugly BFN

  • Sorry to hear about your BFN. I know how much it hurts. Maybe taking a break will help you lower your stress a little and give you greater chance for success the next month you try again.

  • I'm sorry you got a BFN. I can relate, I'm pretty sure I am out this cycle as well. A break may be just what you need, however much it might stink to do that.  ((((hugs))))

    First, I'm so sorry about the bfn - hopefully it's still a little early.  Second, love the CloMonster - isn't that the darn truth or what?  You will make a great decision on whether to take a break or not. HUGS.
