Why does it hurt so bad?

[Anonymous]

I new this month my follicles were not ideal. I told myself not to expect to get pregnant this month. Yet I just received the phone call telling me my results came back negative and I still feel like I have been slapped in the face. Did not think I would handle it this bad.

I'm sorry. I just got my 15th BFN in a row today - like you, I didn't expect to get pregnant because we are in between treatments and just tried on our own. But it sucks, and I will go home and have a good cry (after I leave work and take care of some other things that must be done), and have a nice large glass of wine (probably the only one I will have until my next cycle is over). Then I will focus on what needs to be done for my next cycle, and find hope again, which I know I must do. But I'm looking forward to the cry today before I get there.

3 years and never had a BFP........3rd round IVF stims start tonight....gaining strength is hard. Give yourself time to breakdown and you will come out of it. My mantra is
"Peace and Patience". But you always need to cry first.

I am so sorry for you. I went through 3 years of TTC, before we finally succeeded. I don't think it ever gets easy. Give yourself time to grieve, but you might also try going out and pampering yourself -- go out to dinner with DH or try some spa or retail therapy -- anything to keep your mind off of TTC. Best of luck!
