Not the christmas wish we were hoping for 💔

So today we have been cabined up watching christmas films all day... Yesterday we got that awful news you dread to hear, we got our first BFN 💔

Although we knew the chances of our ICSI working this time was very slim, I held on to every single bit of hope..

I hope everyone else on their journey gets everything they wish for, sending lots of love and baby dust ❤️

Not sure when we will start another cycle but have a review appointment booked for the new year.. I do feel like we have one advantage for next time though.. We know what to expect with the appointments, the ups and downs, and we also know how emotional I'm going to be 😂

Now I am thoroughly enjoying that very hot bubble bath you all know I longed for with a nice glass of bubbles 🥂

Enjoy your bath and bubbles. Sorry to hear you got a bfn, I know how you feel, we also got first bfn from first round of isci 4 weeks ago and I was imagining having a lovely secret over Xmas, now looking forward to lots of mulled wine though :)

Aw sorry to hear that for you too :( yes that sounds like a good plan, I had a mulled wine at a christmas market yesterday it was sooo good! I would much rather be having a sober christmas, but for now this does help ☺️ xx

So sorry. I too had a bfn this week. It's hit me harder than I ever imagined.

Enjoy all the bubbles. Take care x

Thank you, i hope you're okay too ❤️ have a lovely christmas xx

I’m sorry to hear that, it’s rubbish isn’t it? We’re pretty sure our FET has failed - 2 days to OTD and sensitive tests are coming up negative. We knew it was a risk doing it at this time of year that it might make it a difficult Christmas, but then when’s a good time? At least we have a bit of a break from work. I too shall be treating myself to some nice long baths and bubbles, as well as mulled wine over Xmas. Hopefully 2018 is a better year for us xxxx

Thats right, when is the right time? I have a wedding booked in Malta in May, if we start a new cycle in three months (like most people on here say) then we won't make it... It takes over your life! I thought i was going to have a little six month bump in the sun... Ee i dont know.. Im also working christmas, including christmas day haha the joys of being a nurse! But i am looking forward to it, its the best day! Have a lovely christmas, sorry to hear about your poor hopes with the FET, still anther two days yet, will keep my fingers crossed for you ❤️ xx

Thanks - I really don’t think there’s much hope at this point so have resigned myself to that now. Who knows what next year will bring? It definitely does take over your life, I feel in limbo with everything - we want to move house but don’t know how many more rounds of IVF we’re going to need and it’s so expensive. I hope you have the best Christmas you can and manage to relax. I’ll be trying to do the same 🎄🍾 xxx to a better 2018!
