Final Attempt Failed - Advice on How to Cope?

[Pink_Lady_]

Hi everyone, I’ve found this forum such a comfort and so helpful throughout my recent ICSI cycle so thank you. This was our third and final attempt and we’ve found out this morning that it’s failed again. I’m just after some advice as to how to cope if anyone is in a similar position as I feel completely broken. I’ve got lots of lovely family and friends who are being so supportive but I don’t think anyone can truly understand the heartbreak unless they’ve been through it. I had such a positive feeling about this cycle and everything was looking really good which makes accepting it hasn’t worked even harder. Any advice on how to come to terms with the fact I’m never going to be a mummy would be really appreciated. Thank you lovely ladies xx

I’m so sorry. 😢

I haven’t got to where you are yet. We’ve decided to keep going and are fortunate to be able to somehow scrape money together for further cycles.

But I know it’s a huge potential looming.

I found this podcast episode with Jody Day and Jody Day’s book really helpful as prep for this potential outcome podcasts.apple.com/gb/podca...

Take time to grieve and I hope the above resources are helpful xx

hey there! We have had three terrible rounds we have one last one paid for but have been told it’s very unlikely. I’m currently trying to come to terms with never being a mum. We will adopt which is exciting but still a lot to grieve. Please do private message if you feel like have a buddy

Thank you so much. I really hope it works out for you. That’s lovely you’re thinking of adopting if you’re not successful with this 4th round. Good luck with it all xx
