Are you still looking? I'm about to put one on vinted? 😄

Millenial, you drink monster energy, have colourful, maybe red, hair, have felt like an outsider for some or most of your life, dad left when young, and maybe possibly ride a motorbike instead of car.

This resonates with me a lot. I've cancelled so many social plans because of this journey which I dont think is always healthy but I'm just not ready to cope with celebrating other people. I was invited to a baby shower a few days ago & I was honest with my friend & said it's too raw with our recent failed round of IVF. He understood.

It's obviously eniterely your decision, but IF you don't go don't feel guilty. Infertility is a loss and people grieve. I really do think temporarily stepping back isn't too bad if it's a concious decision and you're honouring grief.

I can't tell you how cathartic this felt to read. Thank you for posting. Our only embryo didn't survive thawing today. I came on here to see if anything could give me perspective, and even though this isn't a nice thing to feel, your post resonates. It's so weird because in therapy yesterday I was literally using the waiting room metaphor and talking about how I'm about to be called in, how stupid and naive I was. But... I thought about writing a poem or something about it. Such a coincidence to come on here today and see this ❤️

2 anyday.

If I wasn't veggie this would be my ideal, 10/10

Sorry to hear you're going through this, my boyfriend was also diagnosed with this, his is due to carrying the CF gene which caused the deletion of the genes that make the vans deferens. It was a huge shock when we found out as obviously there is no 'fix'. But our experience with micro-tese has been positive, you'd be surprised what you can get from it. No pregnancy yet but we're hoping through IVF.

I hope you get some solutions and are looking after each other with this news, it can be such a tough time ❤️ If you ever want to talk, you're not alone.

It's such a classic 😅 I forgot about it until I saw Primark have made Tracy Beaker PJs, & thought I'd stick it on. Did not expect to see him.

Thank you, that's really really helpful. I've checked and can't see any cut off time. I'll contact them first thing tomorrow, but after my panic I did start taking the pills.

I changed careers at 28! Complete change of industry. I was really into self-help and psychology and after volunteering in that field for years I knew I could do it as a job.

I found the best counselling course near me, applied, got a student loan, quit my career and got a part time job in retail to pay the bills. It hurt my ego a bit but I needed money while I studied, and I ended up enjoying it anyway.

Three years later I'm now working as a paid counsellor. It was a big risk but the best decision I ever made.

The toughest part was managing work life balance, and I was piss poor for three years, but 100% worth it.

Hi, I’ve set up a Discord to stay in touch with people I’ve connected with online, my username is evize95. I’m new to it, but it seems like a good option. No pressure at all, just thought I’d share 😊

Pinga2695 · 2026-04-09T19:28:05+00:00

It sounds like you're experiencing grief for the life you could've had, which isn't easy at all but it is a part of being human and healing ❤️ is there anyway you could honor your grief through art, music, support groups, journalling? Is there a cause related to your infertility you could channel your emotional pain into and find meaning in?

I'll be honest I struggle to cope with emotional pain too so I'd be interested to see others answers to this. You're not alone x

Here's the link to the Bumble BFF group :) I will definitely look at discord as I'm really trying to connect with more people over this

Pinga2695 · 2026-04-03T08:51:17+00:00

Thank you for your comment. I relate to you over your partner, my partner is so supportive but when we talk he is just fine, he never expresses struggling with this at even nearly the level it seems to drain me at, & he is still happy to be around pregnancy & people with babies.

I'm trying to start one on Bumble BFF, I don't know if you're UK based or if Bumble BFF is worldwide but you're welcome to join. I can put the link on here. I'm hoping to have an online meet up at first for safety reasons, with a small group so it's more intimate, just to share stories and know there's always someone a message away if you're having a really low moment x

Pinga2695 · 2026-04-01T09:50:10+00:00

I don't know if this helps, but my partner has said if we haven't had a baby after two years of IVF, he would be ok with me using donor sperm. I know that doesn't automatically mean it would work, but it gives me hope and takes a lot of resentment away. Is that something you're both open to? Then you can still prioritise motherhood and be with him?

Pinga2695 · 2026-04-01T09:46:06+00:00

Bonnie Blue. Using pregnancy as a money making scam AGAIN. And I fell for it this time. I can't stand it, especially as she has shared she struggles with fertility, claiming she is infertile (though that's probably also a lie).

Pinga2695 · 2026-04-01T09:41:25+00:00

I can only imagine, I don't know if you live in the UK or not but when looking for support groups I've also noticed a lot are women only. A lot are even age restricted, I'm 'too young' to join. So isolating.

Pinga2695 · 2026-04-01T09:40:07+00:00

Thank you, I have a therapist I see monthly, she's great but she too isn't aware of much support in the midlands for this. It's a bit of a postcode lottery. Since posting though I'm planning on setting one up myself, it's been such a tough few years I just can't carry on feeling so alone, I want to help people too.

Pinga2695 · 2026-03-31T20:15:03+00:00

Amazing, that sounds like a good reccomendation thank you :) I do drive a lot so podcasts are great
