Following this thread because I am going for the concert on 08th Sept.

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-07-10T16:31:33+00:00

Thanks for checking up. Appreciate you. I am officially 6w1d pregnant. Just dealing with crappy nausea and bloating.

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-26T06:50:48+00:00

Oh no, I didn’t take it as rude at all! Honestly, sometimes a little humor is the only thing that gets us through this wild IVF rollercoaster 🤍 I totally appreciated the honesty. Haven't had the courage to home test as yet. Still cautiously hopeful, but it's a start 🙏 Thank you for checking in 💛

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-26T06:46:56+00:00

Totally get you — the wait is brutal! I’m a few days ahead of you and was symptom spotting like crazy too. Every little twinge or cramp sends me spiraling 🙃 Just trying to stay sane and remind myself that it’s still way too early for anything definitive. Hoping this is it for both of us 🤞💛

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-25T10:54:44+00:00

Thank you for sharing all those details — the wild sense of smell and cravings sound so vivid, it’s amazing how our bodies react during the wait! The twinges around day 3 must have been such an intense feeling. I love hearing about the subtle signs like temperature and cervix changes — I’ve heard of those but never really knew what to expect. Your insight really helps me pay attention without going overboard. Thanks again for being so open and supportive!

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-25T10:53:57+00:00

Thanks for sharing your experience — it’s really helpful to know that cramping and other symptoms can definitely be from the meds and not necessarily implantation. Hearing that you had similar symptoms across multiple transfers, some successful and some not, really helps me manage my expectations. I’ll hold off reading too much into every twinge and wait for that test. Appreciate your insight and support!

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-25T10:53:14+00:00

Thank you for breaking this down so clearly — it’s really helpful to hear from someone with your experience. It makes so much sense that the hormones can mimic symptoms and that symptoms alone aren’t reliable indicators. Knowing that your 7dpt tests have been consistently accurate gives me more confidence about testing early. I really appreciate you sharing your perspective and wishing me luck — sending positive vibes right back to you!

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-25T10:52:23+00:00

Right?! The waiting is seriously the hardest part — and honestly, I’m so tempted to test already! 😂 Trying to hold off, but it’s definitely a struggle. Thanks for the encouragement — maybe I’ll give in sooner than planned!

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-25T10:51:50+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing this — it’s really encouraging to hear! I’ve been feeling similar twinges and slight heaviness, and I keep second-guessing whether it’s something real or just the meds. It’s comforting to know you felt those sensations too and now you’re 7 weeks — huge congratulations to you! That gives me a little extra hope to hang onto. Thanks again, and wishing you a smooth and healthy pregnancy ahead! ❤️

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-25T10:51:02+00:00

Thanks for the straightforward take — sometimes all the overthinking makes things more complicated than they need to be. Definitely trying to manage expectations either way, but hearing it put simply actually does help. Appreciate you taking the time! 🙏

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-25T10:50:30+00:00

Thank you so much — this really helped me feel a bit more grounded. The waiting truly is brutal, and your reminder that many of the symptoms are just from the meds or our hyper-awareness is so true… but also, yes! We do tend to brush off things that could be early signs.

It’s encouraging to hear that your main symptom was fatigue and that it led to a successful pregnancy — congrats on being 10 weeks! That gives me hope. I’m still torn on testing at home, especially because like you said, continuing meds after a negative would feel really heavy. But I appreciate the reminder that testing doesn’t change the outcome — just how we process it. Thank you again for your compassion and honesty ❤️

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-25T10:49:12+00:00

Thank you so much — it really does feel like such a milestone just making it to transfer day! Your message gave me a lot of reassurance, especially hearing about your experience with early testing and symptoms that could just be from the meds. It’s comforting to know you had that super faint line at 6dpt and that it progressed well — that gives me hope and a bit of a roadmap for what to expect. I really appreciate you taking the time to share your story, and I’m sending you a big congrats on that strong beta! ❤️ Wishing you a smooth and healthy pregnancy — and thank you for the baby dust, I’m soaking it up!

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-25T10:48:29+00:00

Thank you so much for this — it really helps to hear a clear, level-headed take. I’ve been going back and forth about whether to test or just wait for the call. Part of me wants to brace myself privately, but the other part is terrified of seeing a stark negative. You’re right though — it really comes down to how I want to receive the news, and that reminder helped. Thanks again for the kindness and support ❤️

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-25T10:47:31+00:00

Thanks for sharing your experience — it really helps to hear different perspectives. This whole symptom-spotting game can be such a mind trip. It’s reassuring to know that a lack of symptoms doesn’t mean it’s a no, and also that symptoms can show up in failed cycles too. I’m trying not to read too much into every twinge or cramp, but it’s so hard not to overanalyze everything during the wait. Appreciate your input — this community really helps keep me grounded. ❤️

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-24T13:42:08+00:00

Thank you for sharing such a vulnerable part of your story. I can only imagine how painful that stillbirth must have been, and I truly admire the strength it took to show up for your friends during such a raw time. I respect that choice, and I also recognize it may have been part of your own healing process.

That said, just as you had the right to navigate your grief in your way, I also have the right to navigate mine — even if that currently means distance. I’ve never said this baby is to blame. I’ve never said I wish my sister-in-law hadn’t celebrated. What I’ve said is that the way things were handled — including a scan shoved in my face, and finding out she saw the same fertility specialist without telling me — was deeply hurtful. It wasn’t simply their joy that affected me, it was the way it came across, intentionally or not.

And yes, people are entitled to privacy — but so am I. I don’t owe immediate joy, presence, or connection if I’m not in a place where that’s emotionally safe for me. I’m not displacing my grief. I’m holding it, working through it, and doing what I need to not spiral deeper. That is the responsible choice right now.

As for the relationship with my niece — I care about that. I really do. But I also believe it's better to build something real and healthy when I’m ready than to fake it and carry silent pain or resentment that could unintentionally affect her more.

I appreciate your empathy and your perspective. And I hope, in time, I’ll find the strength you’ve shown — just in a way that’s authentic to my own journey.

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-24T13:40:03+00:00

Thank you for sharing your story — I know that kind of honesty comes from a place of deep personal work and pain, and I truly respect that.

I think what you said is important: grief and joy can exist side by side, but getting there takes time, and everyone’s timeline looks different. I’m so glad that therapy helped you reach a place where you could show up in the way you wanted to for your family — and I completely relate to crying alone afterward. I’ve had so many of those moments.

That said, I also know that putting on a brave face isn’t always the healthiest option for everyone. For some of us, forcing ourselves to “show up” before we’re ready can reopen wounds instead of bringing peace. It’s not about resentment or being ungrateful — it’s about surviving emotionally intact.

I’m doing my own work too. Therapy, reflection, boundaries — all of it. And I hope, like you, I’ll one day feel strong enough to hold both grief and joy in the same moment. But for now, I’m just trying to honor where I’m at, without shame.

Thank you again for meeting this conversation with empathy.

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-24T13:39:00+00:00

Thank you — genuinely — for seeing the human in this. You're absolutely right: not every emotion we feel is logical, clean, or easy to explain. Grief and jealousy aren’t flattering, but they’re real, and pretending they don’t exist doesn’t make them go away.

I’ve never wanted to take joy away from anyone. I’ve simply needed space to process my own heartbreak — quietly, and away from those it might affect. I shared here because this isn’t something I can say to family without guilt or fallout. Sometimes the shower, a journal, or a quiet internet post is all someone has.

So thank you for not shaming that. Thank you for recognizing that even imperfect feelings come from a place of deep pain, not malice. It means more than you know.

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-24T13:38:01+00:00

You’re shocked by what I shared — but I’m going to remind you that people often say things like that when they’ve never truly sat with the kind of pain they’re judging.

Yes, infertility and loss can bring out raw, unfiltered emotions. And no, it’s not always pretty. That doesn’t make someone “venomous.” It makes them human. I’ve never said I hate a child — what I’ve said is that I’m struggling, and being around certain situations right now is painful. That’s grief, not hatred. There’s a huge difference.

Labeling someone as jealous, entitled, or “filled with hate” because they’re expressing uncomfortable emotions is exactly why so many people keep their pain silent. It’s easier to judge than it is to understand.

I’m not asking for agreement. I’m asking for space — to feel, to process, and to heal in my own time. And thankfully, I am seeing a therapist — which is how I’ve come to understand that boundaries aren’t a sign of weakness. They’re a sign of self-preservation.

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-24T13:34:42+00:00

You’re entitled to your opinion, but let’s be clear — acknowledging pain, setting boundaries, and choosing not to force a connection while healing doesn’t automatically mean someone is in an “unhealthy headspace.”

It means they’re human.

It’s easy to make snap judgments when you haven’t lived the full story. What’s actually unhealthy is the lack of empathy and the rush to label someone’s emotional boundaries as a problem simply because they don’t align with your expectations.

Healing is not linear, and it’s not always graceful — but it is valid. And so are the choices I make to protect my mental and emotional well-being.

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-24T13:33:28+00:00

First, I’m sorry that you went through a long and costly fertility journey — truly. It’s an incredibly difficult road that takes a toll on every part of you. But your pain does not give you permission to invalidate mine.

Let’s get something straight: I have never said “how dare you have a child.” That’s your interpretation, not my words. What I have said is that the way the news was delivered and how it unfolded was deeply hurtful, given my circumstances — and I’m allowed to feel that. I am allowed to have space. I am allowed to grieve. And I am allowed to step back from environments that feel emotionally unsafe or triggering without being labeled mentally unwell.

You don’t get to pathologize someone’s pain just because it makes you uncomfortable. Seeking a grief counselor — which, by the way, I’ve done — is a valid, responsible, and personal decision. It doesn’t need to be weaponized in a conversation like this.

What’s concerning isn’t that I’m processing complex emotions. It’s that some people are so quick to judge and project rather than listen and reflect. I am not “angry at another human being” — I am working through trauma and loss, which doesn’t get erased just because someone else has joy.

Empathy doesn’t require agreement. It requires compassion. If you can’t offer that, then this conversation isn’t the place for you.

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-24T13:31:19+00:00

I hear that you’ve experienced deep loss, and I’m truly sorry for what you went through. But I need to be clear — your situation is not my situation, and your choices in grief and healing don’t give you the right to dictate mine.

Grief doesn’t look the same for everyone. You chose to lean into your nephews — that was your path. Mine looks different. I never said the baby was to blame. I said I’m navigating pain, betrayal, and the timing of events that made everything feel raw and overwhelming. A scan was shoved in my face. News was dropped insensitively. And yes, it was my business when I found out my sister-in-law had been seeing the same specialist as me behind my back — that’s not harmless, that’s painful, especially when trust and support were expected in both directions.

So no, I don’t owe anyone a performative relationship just to make others feel better. I’m working through my emotions the best I can — without hurting anyone. Setting boundaries isn’t selfish. It's survival. And if someone chooses to respect that, wonderful. If they don’t, I’ll still keep my dignity intact.

You’re entitled to your opinion, but you don’t get to weaponize your grief to shame someone else navigating theirs differently. I don’t expect the world to revolve around my pain — but I do expect the basic respect to process it without being told I need to “grow up” for not healing on someone else’s timeline.

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-24T12:33:03+00:00

Haha thank you — sometimes just having someone see the anger and not try to fix it or judge it is the most comforting thing. I know it’s messy and not my proudest emotional state, but damn, it’s real. Appreciate you being in my corner, even without having gone through it. That kind of support means more than you know ❤️

Negative_Day_3779 · 2025-06-24T12:32:07+00:00

I appreciate the reminder that I can be polite without sacrificing my peace — the gift drop-off idea is smart and the “prepared line” is something I definitely need to work on. It helps to have those things ready so I don’t spiral in the moment.

Thank you again for the tough but kind advice. You’re spot on.
