BFN again

We found out on Friday that we have another BFN after our 5th fresh cycle. Strangely not surprised after our very low hcg levels on Wednesday. Although we have tried to stay positive over the last year and half (since discovering what our fertility issues were) we have always talked about being realistic and when we would stop.

I thought it would be impossible to get to that point but I think we are there. We have spent the majority of our hard earned savings on 3 private cycles and have been through the mill both physically and mentally. I gave up my job in May to persue more treatment and have really missed working and the social aspects.

We are at the end of our journey, for now anyway. We have discussed using donors but we both feel quite hesitant about it and our issues seem more complicated than first thought. There is also the cost implication, we just don't have the money. We have also discussed adoption but neither of us are in the right frame of mind to make a clear decision or start the process. So for now we have to try and get on with our life and make as much of it as possible. Thank goodness we have each other. Thank you all for your kind words and support over the last few months. I wish everyone the best possible outcome in their treatment. Xx

I’m terribly sorry Blue_penguin... I hope that you have access to a counsellor via your clinic who you can talk to. It helped me a lot after my BFN earlier this week. You have each other and that’s precious. Lots of love xx

I’m sorry for your bfn. I think you’re being brave and sensible. We’ve discussed the end too. We have potentially two fets left in us and if we fail then we’re done. We all have to draw a line somewhere for our sanity and finances. Good luck to you for whatever the future holds xx

I’m really sorry to read this. You’ve really given it your best shot. I agree though, there has to be an end point.

It’s still fresh at the moment though. Sending you big hugs 💕 xx

I'm so sorry to be reading this. You're very brave by putting an end point on it. Whatever you decide to do next, I hope you find happiness in other aspects of life x

I'm sorry to hear that. I totally understand (I am coming to the same conclusion with my treatment) but I wish you much happiness in the future xx
