this IVF BFN hurts so badly. I feel like someone died, and in a sense, I guess 'someone' did. Even though I tried to keep myself guarded, and not be too optimistic, it still hurts and all those thoughts of maternity leave, announcing we've finally pg, having a live baby for the holidays, etc. just keep playing over and over in my head.
I just want to crawl in bed and not come out.
Re: I feel like someone died....
me too. it's like someone has died and i'm in mourning. i fuckken hate IF so much.
i found a great quote on whiteywife's blog, it sums up how i feel.
The problem with infertility is that I am mourning children that do not exist and I'm the only one who misses them
just know we are here for you and your are both in my prayers. (((HUGS)))

I totally understand. I felt that way exactly after IVF#1 was a BFN. I felt like those embryos were potential babies, and that they died in my uterus. It's a loss of so many dreams.

I know exactly how your feel. After my first IVF was a monumental failure, I just wanted to crawl into a hole and hide. I spent the whole weekend miserable. I've had two miscarriages and for some reason the fact that the IVF failed hurt more than those had. I have never felt so hopeless or distraught in my life. But it passed. It still sucks, but I feel much better now. Maybe it's because I've had a few weeks to recover, or maybe it's because I'm working on IVF#2. . . but that awful gut-wrenching feeling has gone away. I'm just afraid it will be back again if IVF#2 fails, too.
Take the time you need to grieve and then do something really nice for yourself- you deserve it! I'm so sorry that you're feeling this way. I'm sending you positive thoughts.
