The Trials & Tribulations of Trying to Conceive when its just not happening (12m+)

Whattodonow

Hey t2d. Glad you're feeling better. Your OH sounds fantastic, and it's great to head you're both in the same page. Thanks for doing the list.

Quick question ladies: can you drink whilst down-regging?

Whattodonow

Are you expecting To hear from docs today t2d? X

Morning ladybugs. How is everyone today? Can't believe its Monday already!

Not having a good day. Am feeling really emotional and I just want to curl up in bed and sob. Wish I had the day off to sleep and watch cheesy movies on the Christmas movie channels. Think AF must be on the way as I am also 7lbs heavier than I was on Friday.

Whatodonow - I had the odd cheeky beer whilst down regging. Although technically I don't think you are supposed to, it didn't seem to hurt.

Code, hugs for feeling rubbish. Mondays always stink. Any chance of a 'mental health day' for you?

T2D - so glad you are feeling more positive

Code hugs for feeling blue today.

Good luck with your scans today PM & WW.

Code: I have days like that and find watching a weepy film helps me release all the built up tension...and chance you can do that tonight?

WTTN: I had the odd small glass of wine, but tried to stick to the 5 units or less they recommend when TTC. I'll also confess to having a cheeky glass of red this weekend...sometimes it's just nice to relax and feel normal again!

That sounds like a really good way to get talking T2D; my OH isn't much of a talker and doesn't see the point in talking about what-ifs, but that does make it rather difficult to make any plans.

AFM: Back to feeling like AF coming, and have no other symptoms at all. Even my (.)(.) have gone back to normal. Sadly, I think it's a fail for me.

Derby got everyghing crossed for you. Its such an awful journey to be on.

Wonder_Woman

When is your OTD again Derby? I know it sounds trite but don't lose hope. Got absolutely everything crossed for you.

AFM, scan went well, I think you were right about follies growing quicker once they get going. 20 potential ones today! EC should be weds now hopefully but they are going to call and confirm times etc this afternoon. Can't believe we've even got this far.

Good luck part mouse, c'mon those follies!!

Hi everyone, well what a tough few days its been for everyone.

RG - really sorry to hear it was a BFN for you. There are no words to describe how you'll be feeling. I've been there and it is awful. Take care of yourselves, take each day as it comes and I promise you that is does get better with time. Huge hugs xx

WW - yeah for your follies growing! Keep us posted with progress! x

Derby2 - I agree with don't give up, but I also know from experience that you know your own body. I really hope it works out for you. x

PM - hugs. do you have a scan today?

Code - sorry you are feeling bad. x

T2D - great you had a good chat with DH. Sometimes you just want to know that they are feeling this too. Good to have his support, I couldn't get through this without the support of DH.

SS - sorry AF is messing things up, hope they settle down.

AFM - AF is due this week, getting slight crampy feelings and other signs that it will start soon. We're also leaning more towards starting IVF in the new year and having a fun Christmas and NY. We are having the family over to ours this year for the first time and are frantically trying to get the house ready and DH feels like it would be too much pressure. I think I agree with him. We've waited this long so what difference will a few weeks make? Will let you know when we make the final decision.

Fingers crossed for all those going through treatment and hugs for everyone who is waiting, in limbo or otherwise! xx
