(G&B spoiler) I think I am a jaded son of a...

So last night, in the G&B post, the girls started talking about it being so sad and they were bawling watching it. I wasn't able to watch it on time, so when we did ge to it about an hour later, I thought for *my* worst.....none of the embryos made the thaw. Right? Nope. The transfer went great. So then I moved on to another miscarriage. Skipped right over a BFN. I have been through too many of those ART BFNs.

Please don' think that the BFNs are anything but absolutely heart-shattering..... I just am in a place where everything in my IF like goes for the less than 1% odds of happening.... *sigh* Yes, I am a jaded son of a b!tch. *more sighs*

  • Hugs hon. IF sucks in genral, BFNs suck, but M/C really suck. You had something and it was ripped away from you. It all sucks and I hate anyone has to go through this stuff.

  • With my BFNs, I often wonder "is it better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all."  It clearly is better to never have loved at all. I can't even imagine the sort of pain you've felt over your IF journey and I'm so sorry any of you have gone through it.

    huge hugs!
