N2L: I know that feeling all too well but Maruschke is right- the cramping could be a good thing... hang in there.

AFM: After being convinced yesterday that it was all over, the cramping and spotting disappeared last night and today so despite trying to tell myself not to get my hopes up again, of course I did. My BT was at 8am and come 3pm I still hadn't heard anything. As they usually ring with results around lunch time I was just about beside myself so called and left a message. Another hour went by so I called again and was told "Oh, yes we were getting to you." Effing what?? Have you lost the plot? How many other girls were there stressing themselves half to death?? So, after all that, it was another BFN.

This was our 6th attempt and while it was our first with prednisone I am feeling really disillusioned. For the first time I am wondering about how far we push this... At the very least we will have a month off before transferring our last embryo. I have had major surgery, a stim cycle and an FET back to back without a break and I am exhausted.

Again, apologies for the self-indulgence. Hope you are all doing better than me.
