I'm just so sad....

[Kema]

Hey everyone,

I'm new to this forum thing so forgive me if i put this in the wrong spot.

I only started IVF in March, but our FS & the nurses were so confident I'd be pregnant first time around that now I just feel so sad.

I coped really well throughout the stim cycle & at my OPU I had 41 eggs collected, hence I ended up in hospital a couple of days later with servere OHSS & had to have 5L of fluid drained from my abdomen. My ET was obviously cancelled & I had 21 embryos frozen.

I recovered quickly & went for my first natural thaw cycle, again my ET was cancelled because I didn't have a dominant follicle & now have to wait another month.

I was prepared for disappointment when I had an ET, perhaps it not working, but not for 2 cycles to be cancelled before I even had an ET. I feel like I'll never even get the chance to try & carry my lil frosties.

Just wondering if any one else has had a similar situation, it's so hard to stay positive.

Anyway, thanks.

Welcome to BB!
I'm sorry, I can't give you much advice about the IVF treatment, but I can tell you that you have certainly come to the right place! We've got a few ladies here who are travelling that difficult road, and I hope they'll pop their heads in to give you some encouragement. Have a look through the journal section, and you'll find a few in similar circumstances, I think.
Hang in there honey - you can do it!

I understand hon, I felt the same way when my first IVF cycle was cancelled, to go through all of that and then have 0% chance, it totally sucks. We also had a fresh cycle where all the embryos stopped growing and had no embryo transfer. The only thing I can say is keep your head up, it will hurt like hell for a bit, but eventually you deal with it and try again. Keeping everything crossed for you xx

Thanks

Kema,
I'm so sorry hun. *hugs*. It is a hard journey IVF and the worst part is that it is so unpredicatable.
You will get to transfer - just stay positive. The good news is that you have 21 snow bubs!! That is fantastic!! Keep healthy and positive and create the best enviro for your bubs when the transfer does actually occur.
With my first cycle - only 1 of my embies survived to be transfered (which ended in a miscarriage) and my second cycle was cancelled a few days before pick up because of my poor response. You just gotta keep hoping that the dice will one day roll in your favour..
Take care and look after yourself.
