Down day

Hi all

Am having a really shitty day today. Don't know if it's something to do with the weather.

I feel lost and empty, my positivity seems to have disappeared. It's almost a week since I discovered my little embie was no more.

The appointment with the consultant seems ages away.

Sending big hugs x

down days are allowed - they're all part of the healing process my love.

i feel exactly the same - wearing my husbands dressing gown, looking hideous & bedraggled!

i wish i could offer some pearl of wisdom, but it's just a really shit & unfair situation - you are not alone 😘😘😘

I'm the same today. Period has started and although test date isn't officially till tomorrow I did a test this morning and it's negative. Just come home from work as a mess.

I totally get the lost and empty feeling. I feel like a failure too. Not sure we're going to try another cycle. At the moment I don't think I want to do this anymore.

Hope you start to feel better. Big hugs xx

Think I'm driving myself insane.

I got a call about the IVF programmes earlier.

That just made me feel worse.

Sometimes I feel like saying to my husband he can leave me and find someone who can give him a child.

I'm the one with the faulty oven.

Maybe I need some time away from work. I dunno. The only time I actually had off was for my egg collection. I had 5 days off in total. On the 2ww I did 75hrs without a day off in between.

So sorry you're having a crappy, down day...I am too. Just wanted to reach out and let you know you're not alone, I totally understand the lost & empty feeling. My sister & sister in law are both pregnant and instead of feeling happy for them like I should, I just feel sad for us. I hope tomorrow is a better day for you, sometimes it's seems that's all we can do xx

Not what you're looking for?
