Infertility

An apology

Girls,

I'm sorry for being so down lately.  I'm scared and this is the only place I feel I have to let it out.  Thanks for all of your support.  Some of you have been thru really tough times and you stay so strong.

Re: An apology

  • I don't believe there is any need to apologize.  IF is a very difficult burden to carry and it isn't easy for anyone. Some days are better than other, but for the most part you just keep pressin' on. 

    I know the fear you feel and I'm glad that there is a place to get some advice, support, or just lurk and see how others are coping with things.

    Good luck to you in the coming year.  I do hope great things happen for you.

     

    EDIT: I just looked at your siggy and it looks like great things are already happening!  You're expecting!  That's some great stuff going on.  Enjoy it!

  • No need to apologize. I know it is very stressful, scary and overwhelming.

    Just try to relax, breath and enjoy the fact that you are pregnant. That's good for both you and your baby.

  • Don't apologize. This is what this board is for.  IF really sucks and most of the time there is no other place to let out your vents, here is that special place for you, me and everyone of us. 

    Sending you doubling dust....

    My Wonderful Sister is my GC!!!! 3 IUIs, 2 unmedicated, 1 50mg of Clomid = All BFNs Next step IVF!!!! Melinda & Michael 5*6*06 God Bless The Broken Road
  • I agree - no need to apologize.  You can be both thankful for being pregnant and scared to death at the same time.  It's like IF trains us to be fearful and cautious, and it's difficult to get over that.  I hope you will continue to share what you're really feeling - that's what we're here for!

  • Just saw the update on your siggy.  That is wonderful news!  And please know that we are here for you.  IF is a such an emotional rollercoaster, it's helpful to have a "safety net", like this board, where you can let your guard down.

  • That's what where all here for... don't feel bad about venting.  I don't have anyone IRL who knows about our IF but my husband, so it's nice to have people here who are going through the same thing, feeling the same feelings, and having the same frustrations.

  • You defintely do NOT need to apologize.

    We have all been there at one point or another. And not having many people to talk to IRL of those who get it is super hard. We all need an outlet.

    Praying for doubling betas for you!
