My beta was negative today. Another embryo lost and added pain and heartbreak. We are going to try one more time...not even sure my heart can take it, but we agreed 3 times before we started. I hope everyone else is doing good. Thanks for the support you have offered.
I am so sorry to hear that. I know how much of a hit it is to hear that news :( Give yourself permission to grieve however you need to. Reach out if you need support <3
Oh no!! I am so sorry! That sucks so bad!!! Allow yourself to grieve and rest. I wish I could say something to take your pain away! I am praying for you. We are here for you!!!
I'm so sorry to hear that. My last FET in February failed and I was devastated and I just pushed myself forward, feeling like there was an expectation for me to just keep trying. The best thing I did for myself was take a small break. We only waited one extra cycle, but it made me feel like I was in control of the situation again. It has also allowed me to greive that loss.
Give yourself permission to change your mind based on what you know now about the whole process. Are three cycles still realistic? Maybe you'll actually want to keep going!
I found I was putting so much expectation on myself to be successful because I had decided on timescales I couldn't control. Talk to your husband and see how he is feeling. When I explained I didn't feel ready for our next FET right away, mine was really supportive and understood I just needed a little time to heal emotionally from the last loss.
For me, the loss of my embryos was huge and I really needed time to grieve. It was my baby and I didn't just want to forget and move on straight away. I said exactly the same thing to my husband, I was not sure my heart could keep taking the pain. But after lots and lots of crying, I'm feeling stronger than I did before my last transfer and we'll be going for another next month.
I am sorry, dear. I know nothing I say can make things better. But I applaud you for being so brave. This is not an easy path. I wish you the best on 3rd try and send you lots of e-hugs. Please feel free to vent and let me know how you're doing. Hang in there.
I'm so sorry! My husband and I have been on our journey for 3 years. I know that pain. I know it's bad and the hormone crash make things feel worse. You are not alone.
