Feeling down and fed up (negative post warning)

Why does my body pretend to give me pregnancy symptoms then I do a test to find out it's negative but still no period. I'm so sick of going through this every month due another cycle of long protocol off starting in July. I feel like I want to give up.... i can't stand the thought of not having a baby but when it's been almost 7 years ttc and never even a glimmer, I just can't get the thought of what's the point in trying....

Sorry for negative post.

Hi kdixxy sorry to hear what you are going through. Have you and your partner seen a dr perhaps to get some of the basic tests done to rule anything out? It might be worth doing that first. You can get these done via your gp. They may then refer you to a fertility clinic for ivf ( depending on your area and circumstances).

Sorry I think i may have been mistaken, are you already going through ivf?

I know it’s so hard not to despair but you are stronger than you think and you will get there (took me 6 cycles and 6 losses). As cryst41 suggested have you had all the tests to rule out immune and blood clotting issues? I lost many pregnancies due to undiagnosed factor v Leiden. Hormone levels adequate? Husband fully checked out too? Karyotype/counsyl test for both of you? Theses tests can cost a lot of money but I only wish I had done them or been advised to at the start of my ivf and not after 6 devastating losses from 7 to 14 weeks pregnancy. I wish you the best of luck moving forward, don’t give up on your dream xxx

Hi thanks every one, we have had iui twice with one consultant and now IVF with another consultant due to go back after next period cycle and try off number 2. I have never conceived but IVF showed that my eggs can be fertilised, I'm going to speak to the hospital and see about any further tests before going forward with another round of ivf. It's just so much heartache I don't feel like I can cope with much more ...

I know how you feel lovely. I said this to my husband this week, why after two failed cycles (both hopeless and no Frosties) and three and a half years of trying do I still get my hopes up every month waiting for AF. It is torture and brings massive disappointment each time. It's definitely the hope that kills you! I've been waiting on my period to start our 3rd cycle. I'm normally 24/25 day cycle but of course this month it is day late and arrived today, cd 30!

I really don't know what the solution is and if I knew I'd definitely share my secret with you. Hope next cycle brings some good news for you xxx

It is totally understandable! You’re doing the right thing by sharing as you can get support.

I’m so sorry that you are still waiting for your BFP. It is an emotional journey, you are bound to have days/ weeks feeling like this.

Try and stay hopeful, there is so much that can be done!

Just to update , I spoke to my clinic yesterday and they said that I have had all the tests needed due to the fact it's my hubby swimmers causing the problem no other tests are needed. They have recommended a med to help sperm fragmentation which we have ordered this morning. It needs to be taken for aprox 4 months so we are going to postpone our 2nd ivf attempt until after Xmas giving us 6.months of trying to get fiahting fit. Even though it was hard to hear she told me to stop thinking every month that I might fall pregnant naturally as only 1 third of his swimmers actually swim. I feel better knowing it's not me but feel horrible for my hubby. Going to try and move forward now .... the is every one for being so supportive xxxx
