I've been swing madly from coping and ok, to really not coping and crying all afternoon... I'm an absolute mess! I'm sure it's all just taking time to process and sink in, though. Funny how before the appointment I kinda expected this, and was trying to prepare myself for it. I guess it just goes to show - you just can't prepare yourself for this sort of news!
Mako, there's an excellent book which helps with the male side of this - swimming upstream. There's a thread about it in the general conception discussion forum. I have read it and found it to be great. I think I'll have to give it to DH tonight. Basically it explains the male aspect of infertility and assisted conception. It tells them how we feel, and tells us how they feel. If your DH won't talk, maybe the book will help?
Thanks so much for the hugs and support, it really is helping me get through this.
Hi girls. I thought I should pop in to see how everyone is doing.
BW- Sorry to hear that things didn't work out the way you wanted them too. Just hang in there because you are one step closer to your BFP. At least you can end this dredfully long cycle and get something happening.
Mako- Thanks for asking after me. I am doing really well. Sorry to hear that your appointment also didn't go so well. Good luck with the IUI. I am sure your DH will be fine with it all but he probably needs a little time to absorb all of this information as well. Please don't be too scared about IUI it is really very easy and you are a strong woman so you will be fine.
BG- Love the new Av very hot!!!
Sorry I can't do more personals girls but I am running a bit late today. Will come back again soon. Love to all xoxox
Actually, that's the funny part of it, ktgirl - I don't end the cycle! They did a blood test to figure out whether I could just start the pill or not, and apparently I can. I guess I continue this way (with no AF) until we next see the FS which is on the 8th of February. I'm really going to have to change my sig... and maybe get rid of that silly ticker! And just when I'd got it all looking pretty and all!
