[quote=Anonymous]I'm so sorry OP. It totally sucks, but maybe hearing about people who are worse off could help - I mean this sincerely.

I was ready to be married/with house/and try for a baby at 26, but it took me until I was 40 to get married. We jumped into IVF and did 8 rounds, had 3 chemical pregnancies and 1 miscarriage. Finally turned to using an egg donor (an immensely stressful and sad decision initially) but we have a wonderful daughter and I'm in the 2ww for baby #2.

Life did not turn out as planned AT ALL. I'm definately a much older mom than I wanted to be, and we had to use a donor, which I never would have imagined. And my younger sister had 3 kids before I had my one. But this is how it unfolded for me and I accept it and love every day of my life with our little family. I am not letting my disappointment about how things turned out steal my joy of having my wonderful husband and baby today.

Anyway, just thought I'd share for some perspective - I get it that things feel really bad now, but you could have a lot of joy and happiness in store. I wish I could have done IVF at your age and possibly had a baby with my own eggs and been a younger mom. Sending you good vibes! [/quote]
