I couldn't quite pin point why I was having a rubbish morning and this was so on point. Thank you for sharing. Very tough day indeed. We all really deserve this day to be a happy day. Feeling exhausted and emotional for sure. I know I'm gonna be bad company, unless I put on a brave false face. It's definitely a struggle. Love to you all ladies xxx

I think everyday is a struggle when ttc and going through ivf. It's days like mothers day that make it all even harder. Adverts on tv, cards the lot.

Thinking of you on such a difficult day x x

I know it's days like today that makes it sink in. Though the lead up is the worst for me with all the stuff in the shops! Today I plan to think just about my own mum and how much I love her!! Xxx

I think that's the best thing to do today. I've been with my mum today for some quality time. Definatly the best thing to do.

The build up is horrendous. After my hospital appointments I went to get my muns mothers day card and started breaking down in front of them. I did just grab one and walk off to get myself together. Just the small things that hurt the most x x x

Tell me about it! I made the decision to remain indoor today and that's what I'll do. I really wouldn't want anyone rubbing it in my face today. Praying for all of us ttc women x

I just came on to post the same, thank you for thinking of others and wishing you good luck for the future.

I'm having a good old cry today and then moving on with the day - whilst trying to avoid Facebook at all costs!

I do hope that time is a healer with infertility as it sure sucks!

Sending love and light x

It's good to cry it all out. I really need to but just can't make the tears fall yet.

Facebook is just self destructing today. I totally forgot and went on there. I soon came off it!!πŸ˜’πŸ”«Gonna give it a few days to clear my news feed.

Hope you're feeling better now it's almost over! x

Totally understand how you feel, your allowed to feel like this and one day your day will come. Myself and my husband are on our 4th try and we all have our journey, we all just want it to be out time and a day for us xx

Definitely! Just people to understand how difficult it actual is who are fortunate enough not to face this struggle.

It's every mothers day, fathers day, Christmas, etc... Each one is another stab wound to the heart.

I wish you all the success on your 4th attempt. Let this be the last and be the one! Everything crossed for you! x x

It was super hard wasn't it, I spent all morning in tears, this year really got to me. Maybe next year we will be mums, we have to pray and hope we will. Sending you big hugs 😘 Xxx

Hope is the only thing to hold on to keep going on days like that. Especially when it's all so raw.

Bless ya, it is good to have a cry to let it out. Still doesn't make it right or fair.

At least it's over with now and hopefully next year will be our first mothers days 😚 xxx

Sorry to hear that soapsuds my heart goes out to you. I'm still in hospital having had a smm after our mmc 2 weeks ago, so not a mothers day to remember. I hope for us all next year's will be better. Xx
