I am 11dpo today and I'm starting to get those "end of the 2ww" blues. That nagging feeling deep in your gut where you just know it didn't work. This was our first try at IUI so we still have 3 more rounds before moving into IVF. But I just can't get that feeling to go away. I guess I'm just having an off day.

Yuck. I hate that. Remember, the meds do crazy stuff to your hormones and body. You could be pregnant and not feel anything! Try to stay positive...you aren't out of the game yet!

Hang in there... I was sure that I wasn't pregnant and got my BFP on Monday! You can have that happen too!!!!

I hate hate hate that feeling. It's so depressing when you know, but still have that glimmer of hope. My sister asked me which part of the cycle was the worst and, of all 28 days, the worst for me is at about day 24 or 25 when I just know in my gut that it didn't work, but I don't yet want to give in and wallow. Here's to hoping. I've read many women who got BFPs when they were SURE it didn't happen. Good luck and take care of yourself.

I know this 2ww is very painful...and your intitled to an off day. But try to stay positive and not "think" too much about if you are pregnant or not. I think keeping busy and distracted helps the 2ww go a lot faster.

I'm hoping for a BFP for you soon!!!

I am sorry. I hate those days. I really hope that the IUI worked and soon you will be celebrating a BFP! :-)

I have some knitting to do, but I don't know how much it is going to keep my mind off of things....it's a baby blanket for my cousin. I started it about a year and a half again, but then she she had a miscarriage....now she's due in August so I want to finish this for her.

You're not alone! I'm feeling the exact same way right now. I have my beta tomorrow; so I'll find out if our 1st IVF cycle worked. At the beginning of the 2ww I was soooo hopeful. I'm now I just feel like it didn't work. I don't "feel" pregnant.
I'm sure the hormones are making us totally whacko! Hang in there!

I have that feeling a lot - sometimes I just feel like it will never happen... I just try to remind myself to take a deep breath and take it one day at a time. Good luck!
