Hello,
After just wanting to get AF so we could start a FET cycle - I'm finding myself scared of what is going to happen. I know I just seem to whinging and negative all the time, but I'm scared of this cycle not working, or if it does, scared of getting PG and having something go wrong. I cant be happy either way:doh:
Does this mean that I'm not yet mentally in the space to do the FET? Or is this just a normal part of this journey?
while reading your post it all seemed too familiar to me
The feelings and emotions you are experiencing are all normal, or at least i felt them too
BB is wonderful with support to help you get through these times

FG - i would have to say it all sounds completely normal to me! i found that, the closer i got to any particular procedure (IUI, EPU, FET), i got so much more anxious. waiting i could deal with - i'd whinge and whine about it, but i KNEW what was coming. i wasn't always sure what to expect with the next procedure - and the fear of failure makes me hugely anxious! what if it doesn't work?? what then?? what if it DOES work?? i don't know what to do if things go right...
i think that, for me, if i'm NOT feeling something - anxiety, fear, what ever it may be - if i'm not feeling that, i honestly think i'm not in tune with what is happening. this is a huge thing for us all - they're putting back and embryo that is effectively "alive" - and it's up to our body to protect that embryo - that's a huge amount of pressure to put on ourselves.
but in the end, the anxiety will go - hopefully after 9 lovely pg months! and it will all be more than worth it
good luck
FG - :hug: sounds normal to me sweet just the ups and downs of IVF hang in there stay postive and try to realax. :hug: and :bluedust:
Thanks for the support - once again I'm glad that this is normal and I'm not yet totally losing my mind :lol:
FG, sounds normal to me. ;) No, you're not losing your mind (as much as it sometimes feels like you are!)
I'm doing a FET cycle this month after an almost 6 month much needed break and I'm feeling anxious about the whole thing for a lot of reasons. There will always be some amount of anxiety when you're going into a new cycle, so I would say all the thoughts running through your mind, and the emotions are completely normal.
Just read your sig....I have my first scan for this cycle on Thursday too. :)
Sounds like it is part of that rollercoaster ride we are all on! If you are worried the clinic can usually advise you on a counciller that deals mostly with fertility, if you havent already spoken to someone like this, I found it really helpful. GL
Megan - good luck with your scan tomorrow!
