I knew it hadn’t worked

I tested this morning the day before my otd. My husband is off work today so I wanted him to be at home with me if the test was negative, which it was. I haven’t cried, I just feel kind of numb. My second bfn. What’s wrong with me? Why don’t my embryos implant?

I really can’t wait to see the back of this year.

I really feel for you. My otd is Monday and I'm dreading another BFN. I would test again tomorrow as things can change. Be kind to yourself whatever the final outcome and I'm with you on seeing the back of 2018, it's been the worst year as I've spent most of it bloody sober!!! Xx

Same here Jebby86... everything was perfect... lining, embryo, process, etc and still BFN! Trying to re-group and re-cover! Think I will have some time off before I use my last 2 Frosties. They are considered to be of medium quality but guess what ... the good quality one did not made it so you never know... here if you need a chat ... 👋

So sorry to read this. Sending you big hugs and hopefully you will all get some answers xx

I am right there with you. 2 BFN in a row with perfect conditions and great embies. Feel like I am broken. Something is not right and I am not normal. Hubby has 2 beautiful kids from a previous relationship (both unplanned and by accident) who are now 16 and 18. Had a vasectomy after that so we had to do ICSI. Nothing wrong with his swimmers, so the problem is me. Don't even know if I am up for another try... the disappointment is next level!!

That is exactly how I feel, broken. I hate that my body doesn’t do the one thing that it is supposed to do so naturally, grow a baby. We’ve got two Frosties left but I don’t know if I can go through this all again xx

Hi Jenny, so sorry to hear your news today. I had 2 fresh BFNs followed by 2 frozen BFNs. Never thought I’d be in this position as I always gets such good results yet nothing implants. Don’t know if the embryos are genetically abnormal or if it’s my body that has an issue. I’m now on my third cycle and have 2 embryos on board this time and 5 in the freezer so feeling positive yet terrified. You just have to keep going and not give up on what you want. Ivf is a very long journey for some, short for others. Keep going - the good news is you still have Frosties so don’t have to go through it all again - Frosties are much easier xxx

Totally feel for you, Ive had 4 BFN's so far and its pretty soul destroying. However on the other hand IVF doesnt have great success rates at the outset....around 30% so sometimes it is just a numbers game even if we do see some lucky ladies get their BFP on their 1st go. Everyone that I know that's had IVF needed several attempt as frustrating as that sounds. Big hugs...think there will be a few of us glad to see the back of 2018!xx

It is harsh. I’m sorry. I’ve had three bfns myself so I know how shattering they can be. Don’t give up on your frosties.. take some time out and come back when you’re stronger xx

Really sorry to read this and sending you huge hugs. Take some time to come to terms with this and allow yourself some time to deal with it, but then make sure you come back fighting, amazing to have two frosties - you are still in the game, just more of a long ball one. Hugs xx
