During the first IVF cycle, I was so hopeful and excited. When I found out I wasn't pregnant, I felt badly but was able to start looking forward to the next cycle pretty quickly. Now, it's time to start the second cycle, and I'm so scared it won't work this time. Or ever. It's so hard to let go and accept that I can't control this. That there's nothing I can do about this (besides eating well & acupuncture, which I am doing). I may just be too old now at 40 for a pregnancy. I'm terrified. What will we do if this doesn't work? We've been trying now since we got married three years ago, just assuming that it would work eventually. After all it's something so many take for granted.
Big hug luminescent. I don't think there's anything i can say to take away the nervousness only that i too am doing my 2nd ivf cycle. 40 isnt too old you still have a few more years up your sleeve! As long as you get one little bubba right?! Come join us in the LTTTC & AC thread. We are pretty busy in there at the moment but the more the merrier
Sorry I'm on my phone ATM so can't post the link for you. But I trust you'll find us
I too am 40 (41 in a few weeks) and am trying for our first bubba. Currently doing my second FET and in a TWW. Come join us in the LTTC Assisted Conception thread Jan. Plenty of lovely girls in there, with plenty of support to give.
Hey there. I too understand where you are coming from. Hang in there and believe Best of luck. Will look forward to hearing of your successful journey! K.
Hi there :-)
My husband and I are about to do an FET, in a few weeks. I have never been so terrified in my life. I feel, the same way that you do, going through the stages of having to entertain the idea that it may never happen. I have become so numb to it almost. I'm not quite sure how i can give you hope but to say that you're not alone. Most women, if not all, in this particular forum have been or are in the same situation. It is hard, it is terrifying, it does shake you to your very core, but know that the journey you're facing is a journey travelled by many women. Best of luck!
