Hi I'm new on here ...here is my history & feeling low right now ...

[MrsF76]

Hi everyone I'm Tina & this is my first post on here. My husband & I have been ttc for 5/6 years now. I have experienced 3 recurrent miscarriages, all naturally conceived . We then continued trying naturally & nothing happened for about 12/18 months . We then tried IVF , the first cycle was unsuccessful- no fertilisation in the Petri dish. Our second cycle resulted in our baby daughter born sleeping when I was 26 weeks pregnant. Ella-Rose had no heartbeat at 26 weeks due to problems with my placenta. Our 3rd try did not implant. Our clinic has suggested we try egg donating as this would give us a better chance especially as I am now 41. Before we could even discuss what we should do next, we booked a much needed holiday to Mallorca & had a lovely time. We returned almost 2 weeks ago . My period was due on the date we flew back to UK & it still has not made an appearance. I was beginning to feel nausea in the morning & feeling very tired! My hopes of being pregnant seemed to be taking place . I did several home pregnancy tests but all came back negative. I then requested a blood test at the doctors last Friday - again negative! I have been so upset this week . I returned to the doctors yesterday to find out what is happening to me and why my period still hasn't appeared . They repeated the blood test and the results remain the same, negative. The doctor has advised to see what happens in the next month and my period may well arrive , just very late . I have never missed a period, they are regular. I mentioned if it was a phantom pregnancy & she did not discount this considering all what I have gone through. Why did this happen to me & give me false hope? Has anyone else experienced similar ? I feel so low & it's so hard to keep picking myself up & try again . Sorry for such a long post . Thank you for listening xxx

Sorry to hear what you've been through. I was 3 days late last month (I'm never late at all) and so had a small glimpse of what you're feeling - my hopes were momentarily raised and I was crushed when it arrived. Stay strong. It's so hard xx

[MrsF76]

Thank you 7AVA & BrightonBelle85 for your support . It is hard, staying strong . Each time something happens - it takes a big chunk out of me . So glad the support is here xxx
