I just wanted to say Thank you to all you lovely ladies for your support. It is so comforting having somewhere to turn to where people actually understand your journey and your pain because they have been through or are going through the same. I saw this picture and I myself have heard so many of these lines from people that havent been down this road....
A little something that we can all re... - Fertility Network UK
A little something that we can all relate to.

Oh yes, all of these and more. I feel awful that I was also one of the people who perhaps said some of these things in the past before starting out on this journey. It really is true that unless you have been through it you really don't get it... x
So true, before I started this journey I had no clue either. Hopefully I never said anything that upset anyone πππ
Hi JCJM. Thanks for this, it all so true. Diane
Very true it's a tough journey I actually had a convo with my mum for first time since October she didn't know about any of my losses she thought I was still pregnant. When I told her she says sorry. It's just not meant to be and I'm very lucky to have my daughter considering what iv been through. I do feel that myself, but didn't want to hear that from my own mum. Oh well life goes on what will be will be πππ€ππ
Oh yes its more difficult when it comes from your mum. I think they all mean well but for us its like they rubbing salt in the wound. I just told my best friend that this cycle failed and she replied saying well its not the end of the world you can just try again. I immediately felt my blood pressure rising π. Maybe someday soon we can all look back on this and have a giggle because we will all have our happy ending πΆπΌ
I wish I could believe my mum meant well hun. She wasn't happy when she found out I was pregnant tbh honest the "it's not meant to be " was an in direct I'm relieved your not pregnant and stop trying.
I'm think some maybe are trying to be supportive but just don't have a clue
Oh gosh your friend really doesn't have a clue what your going through, I'm with you there hun hopefully some day well look back and give this time a big fat wave and laugh
(Sorry phones playing up) and feel such an immense sense of achievement that we've got out the other end of this tunnel, we've had a few ladies recently that have, reached there. Feeling ecstatic for them
πππ€ππ
Oh no, if theres one person we want to be happy for us is our mums. I am sorry she isnt giving you the support you need. Sometimes its better to just keep certain info to ourselves to save us the extra pain and heartache. Yeah, its so nice to see when ladies are successful, its such a hard journey so its awesome to see a positive outcome for them in the end and of course It gives us hope.
I'm kind of used to it hun, sometimes I expect something different from her but it's, wishful thinking, I won't be telling her next time for sure.
It's lovely to see these stories the hope is what keeps us going For sure ππ€π
Oh my, Iβve heard so many of these the past six years π€¦πΌββοΈ As you say it is lovely to be able to be in touch with others who have experienced this, understand the process and know what it feels like. Huge thanks from me also xx
I have also been trying for 6 years. Feels like a lifetime! Very thankful to have found this group recently x
