Infertility

Does anyone feel like they just can't win?

Infertility sucks, we all know that. The emotional heartache, the shots, the pills, the procedures all of it sucks. But everyday we get up and do all that we can do to accomplish this dream we so badly want. We follow dr's orders to a tee, we wait, we hope, we pray. Its hard enough without the added complications.

In August after my first ER I got OHSS, all i could think was great this isn't hard enough but now I have to deal with this? Then we did our first FET, we got a BFP but the numbers were low, for three weeks I had to live in beta hell! I was not able to start the bcp's for our next cycle cause I had to deal with this non-viable pg.
 

I see posts all the time about BFN's, ectopic pg's, m/c's, OHSS, cancelled ET's, Cancelled cycles, etc. It just doesn't seem fair, I know life is not fair and that this is all part of IF. But geez when do we get a break?  If we go through all of this to have a baby it should work, no if's ands or buts. Its hard enough we don't need all this added sh*t!!!

  • I am sorry. ?It is all so very hard; I can certainly empathize. ?

    Hang in there. ?I hope better days are on the horizon.?

  • I know exactly what you mean.  Some days I am filled with despair at the thought that there may be no biological baby for us at the end of this long, hard journey.  IF is not fair!  And my BFN today does not help things.
  • Raises hand! If it isn't one thing it's another. I don't understand how it can be so easy for some women yet so difficult for us.

    One day Im hoping to finally catch a break. But I have a feeling that day will never come. I keep hoping though.

  • my eyes are welling up with reading this because it is my truth.... can I get on this bandwagon with you? 

    why is it not fair for us??? what are we doing wrong??

  • and might I just add that most people think you are just dealing with not getting pregnant- they have NO IDEA of the meds, the money and the trips to the doctor and all of the hopes and dreams you have that get dashed at the end of each month.  it is so hard to have hope sometimes...
  • Yep, I'm right there with ya! Angry  

    Nobody should have to go through all this crap.  Maybe if we knew that one day this would result in a real live baby we might be able to say it's all worth it?

    Hang in there.....You are not alone.

  • i couldn't agree with you more.  it's surreal to me when i have friends who get pregnant on their own...that's such a foreign concept to me.   hopefully, the new year will bring us all what we want so badly.
