OTD and a BFN

Saarah92 profile image

Today was my otd.

I unwrapped a clear blue test this morning and hoped for the best. Unfortunately as I feared a bfn.

Still no sign on AF. And I feel quite numb.

Got ready for work and went in as normal. Just another day.

I suppose It just wasn't meant to be.

I'm so sorry to hear this, please try and take some time for yourself to process it. We invest a lot of emotion into the whole process and it's so hard to just allow yourself to 'feel' sometimes. We are all here for you anytime xxxx

Thank you sprinkles. I suppose I just keep thinking of all the ladies on here who have been though countless cycles. This was just my first.

I will. TGIF.

I'll have two days to lay oh my sofa, drink tea and watch countless reruns of new tricks 😂👍🏼

So sorry to hear this Sarah, bfn's are so hard after what you've been through. You're very strong for going straight into work, kudos to you Hun. Hope you have a restful weekend and can plan your next steps soon xx

Thanks Georgina, it's hard but what's helped is I tested early and built myself up for the negative.

Sounds strange I know.

Not knowing is actually worse so I suppose it's some sort of conciliation that I know what's going on now and just take It from here.

Thanks for your support xxx

It doesn't sound strange at all, when I was spotting for days on one of my cycles it actually helped make the otd less devastating and a shock because it was like a slow realisation, I get it. The not knowing does you in, at least now you can plan what's next for you. Lots of luck whatever you do next xx

Sorry to hear this, look after yourself xxx

I'm thinking of you. I was in same situation on Wednesday. It's horrible to digest the news.

Just stand again like all of us.

Sorry to hear about your news. It's hitting me at random points in the day. AF has just arrived so that's solidified it for me.

I will try. Thanks xx
