Join my pity party

Let's have a pity party today! Post what you're feeling today here! I already posted mine in another thread but I'm sure I'll have more as the day goes on

Re: Join my pity party

I'll come and keep you company. My day started off good, got good news at the RE office. BUT as I think about it more and more, it still amazes me that after 2 years TTC we have nothing to show for it. I know that our (all of our) time will come, but starting to get a little impatient.

Re: Join my pity party

I know it's like even when you get good news something inside us nags at us bc of everything we've been through!

Re: Join my pity party

Cheer me up, what good news did you get?!

Re: Join my pity party

Today was my CD3 appt and everything is looking good. My right ovary is now working and producing follies, so we are clear to start the Clomid and my IUI's are scheduled next Thurs/Fri. I am excited and now with 2 working ovaries our chances went up a bit so that made me really happy.

Re: Join my pity party

good luck!!

Re: Join my pity party

uggghhh..... it's funy that you brought this post up because today has been one of the most frustrating days ever.

I've been waiting to ovulate and I've reached CD17 and still nada. I normally ovulate on CD11. My last cycle was a bummer as well.....it lasted for 35 days, and I have no idea if I ever even ovulated at all. I need to ovulate in order to start on my next IVF cycle.

If I don't ovulate this cycle it means that I have to wait for next cycle to start. I found out about this earlier today when I spoke with my nurse at Cornell and I just didn't take it well and took half a day and left work. I came home, pulled down the shades, cried my eyes out and then fell asleep.

Problem is that my cycles were fine and I always ovulated before my first IVF cycle came into existence. It seems like it totally messed up my body and it seems that I can't get it to snap back to reality. I'm hoping that it's just a late ovulation and I will still get to have my IVF cycle done as planned.

Makes you really wonder if these meds destroy our natural cycles... will I ever be normal again?

Thanks for listening ladies

Re: Join my pity party

Ugh Sign me up.....was finally starting to feel better the last few weeks after my miscarrigae in Sept. Just started taking meds for FET, feeling hopeful again & DH told me this morning that his sister is prego.
He didnt want to tell me but we are traveling to see them for thanksgiving next week so he had to. She knows are troubles & obvi feels awful & said she would totally understand if we didnt want to come. Ughhhhhhhhh........she is 37, this is #3 for her & they were trying for a while so i am happy for her but when is it our turn?????
I still cant muster up the strength to call & say congrats. I cant even think about it without crying............

Re: Join my pity party

im on 10 dpo, af expected tomorrow

this is the last "natural" cycle before clomid and iui...

im soo not ready for AF to show tomorrow.


went out to dinner this past weekend, my husbands friend's wife outed me at the table about my fertility issues (i didnt even knew that she knew? ! and i was not prepared to talk about it....expecially with those at the table!)

that led to a bad fight with dh on the way home..alot of crying

i am tired of crying

i feel like my eyes are permanently puffy

Re: Join my pity party

Ohhh pity party... I'll join!

So lets see....... I went in for monitoring yesterday and found out that on a day where I historically produce 3-5 follies by now... have produced NOTHING!! ZERO!!!!!! So, I am using more injections and going back tomorrow to see if it made any improvement.

This is all while knowing I was supposed to be 31wks pregnant today with my son. As it gets closer to my due date, I feel more and more sorry for myself about all of this - and I HATE feeling sorry for myself!

Oh, and it wasn't long ago that I went out with a friend who is at around the same point that I was when I found out I was losing the baby. She asked my opinion on sending out "pregnancy announcements" as holiday cards.. I was like Really.. ummm *I* am the reason people don't do that!!!


I can go on and on .........

Re: Join my pity party

I can't imagine what you are going through, having to compare everything to your due date.
I hope you make better progress tmrw.
For the record I think "pregnancy accouncement" Xmas cards are an awful idea. IMO I would think that even if I wasn't going through IF!

awww, i am sorry you are feeling down. can they give you more meds to have you ovulate? i mean,meds suck, but waiting and hoping sucks as well. why is it that crucial for you to ovulate so that you can go on?

Re: Join my pity party

I can't imagine! It's hard enough going through IF and a kiss but a loss like your, I'd probably be doing the same things as you! That's why dr b probably suggested bereavement counceling to try to learn how to deal with those overwhelming emotions
You made me when you said we can rub off some
Thanks for getting a out of me!
