Emotionally wrung out

Hello, I am new here. My husband and I have been TTC for 5 years and are about to start our 3rd round of IVF. We are in the category of ‘unexplained infertility’. I’ve just had my planning call with the clinic nurse and am feeling emotionally wrung out. I have struggled for the past year to handle the emotional barrage that comes with IVF, especially when they failed and I feel terrified with us going into the third one that if it fails it’s another sign that it won’t ever work. It is hard not to feel demoralised when there is no apparent reason for the infertility.I admit I don’t have an agenda or question on this post, I just need somewhere to get the words and feelings out. IVF is the hardest and loneliest journey I have ever gone through and I swing between wanting to stop trying and move on, and fighting to the end.

Just signed up here today & saw your post. Hope you're maybe feeling more positive now, but just in case I'm sending you lots of positive energy 💫 it's just such a tough process and honestly don't feel many people understand it. When I've felt low like that I've made sure to only look for success stories, to find people in similar situations or further down the line that have had success. But it's definitely a difficult head space to break from! Hoping you can share a success story soon xx
