First Period after second failed IVF 😩

My first period after IVF round 1 didn’t hang around before I was back to my normal cycle again and for this round I’ve been spotting and cramping on and off for the past 2 weeks before being hit with a heavy bleed from 2am this morning. I was hoping that by getting my period it would help to give me closure from this second failed IvF and in a way it does because now I feel like I can move on from this last cycle and work on our next steps and this is my body finally resetting from all the hormones and at the same time when I think about what lies ahead and not knowing if or when we have our own baby, I just feel so defeated and at times I just want to give up and try to accept that this won’t happen for us, then I see my husband with our niece and how much love he has for her and how much he wants a child and I feel so broken I physically hurt 💔

Sorry for being on such a downer but it’s just one of those days and I just needed to get it off my chest

I feel the same had my period just today - didn’t even make it to test day! Fourth round here! Fourth failed attempt. So sad. But I’m picking myself up and believing all will be well in the end....

So sorry - I didn't even make it to test day either, bled from 9dp5dt, same with the first but didn't bleed as much first time round 😩 Trying to think of it now as tomorrow is a new day, new week, fresh start with a positive mindset, willing myself to get back up and keep fighting for our baby xx

I am so sorry

I know how you feel, I am on my second failed ivf after 2 ectopics and just feel so devastated

Want with all my heart to try again but so scared about another failure that I don't know if I can actually physical manage 🥺

It's horrible and such a difficult journey. I felt so much stronger emotionally and physically second time around I convinced myself this was our turn and now I'm questioning everything, I don't want to transfer our last embryo until I get some answers as to why this isn't happening so I can maybe save us some heartache but it won't 😩 Doesn't help that I'm having to wait 6 weeks after our BFN to see a consultant and even then I still don't think I'll get any answers other than it was just bad luck.

So sorry you've had to go through 2 ectopics as well as failed IVF's - I hate this process, I hate the unknown, I hate not knowing but I do know that I'll keep going until we have our baby but so scared of how much more heartbreak is in store and how much I and we as a coupe can take 💔 Wishing you all the best in your next steps xx
