Well just tested this morning and its another BFN for me (at least this time I managed to wait till 15 DPO)... I'm really disappointed as now the realization of the secondary infertility diagnosis is really starting to sink in. there are no pill, no appointments, nothing but IVF ahead of this long journey... and for that at this moment there is no money.
I will continue to try the alternative medicine, but I'm trying not to hope too much, I know in the back of my head that its a long shot but...
To make it worse it seems like everyone is pregnant but me
I found out yesterday that an old colleague of mine is pregnant again. Her father who is doing his PhD with me came to tell me the 'good' news and then asked me 'oh by the way do you have any kids'... I wanted to find a very deep hole and just sink into it
then there is my friends' sister who is also pregnant and thinks nothing of broadcasting it as wide as she can, through face book and email just what her latest craving, symptom, appointment has been like
then there are the jokes (yep, there are such insensitive people) I got one of those stupid chain letter the other day from a really good but obviously deeply clueless male friend, it was a slide show of bad people's family photos... a bit of a laugh until it gets to the photo of the man woman and dog which reads... she is obviously a barren as the Sahara, so they got a dog... ha ha ha... there was absolutely no words to describe how much that hurt because that photo looking back at me was and is my 'family' right now...
and then there is the women in the shopping centers, the parks, the street, magazines, the university, the doctors surgery, the t.v adds (I could go on and on and on).
Its enough to want to do your head in
sorry for the long rumble but I am just feeling awful....

At least we have each other to let off steam too, try to stay positive and think about how great it will feel when you get the BFP!
Praying for us all to find peace. x
