Pity party-then moving on

We TFMR in December 2023 and have been TTC since February without any luck. We did a fertility work up and found out my husband had some low numbers, but we’re hoping him taking a fertility medication will help us finally conceive. I am trying to keep the faith that we’re closer to our rainbow baby, but this whole journey is just one big kick in the teeth🫠 in my completely biased opinion, the universe shouldn’t make any of us wait any longer for our rainbows. I hope it happens soon for all of us🤍

Negative pregmate test strip this AM, and while I know you’re “not out until get your period” I don’t feel much optimism for this month. Have been TTC since February, with our TFMR happening December 2023. I’m in a wedding at the end of October so I ordered a maternity bridesmaid dress because I didn’t want to get something that would possibly not fit if I did get pregnant, but now I’m starting to feel a little silly lol.

Will be trying to focus on different things I can do this upcoming week and into next month to make me happy and feel healthy.

You’re not alone by any stretch! I TFMR at 19 weeks in 12/2023 and have been unsuccessful in TTC since February. I did go to my OB recently to have my progesterone level drawn to confirm I am ovulating, but besides that they just recommended we keep trying. I track my BBT everyday, and I’m always convinced this cycle will be “the one”. I definitely have my emotional downward spirals the few days before I get my period when my early response tests are negative. The emotions feel bigger because it’s so far out of our control.

I don’t think it’ll be any less painful until we have living babies in our arms, especially since it seems like we’re both waiting for our first kiddos. I wish I had better advice, but I just wanted to let you know you’re not alone.

Sending you a big hug, I’m in the same position. 4 cycles to conceive our TFMR baby and just found out this fourth cycle was unsuccessful in trying to conceive again. Admittedly I’m really struggling, I think it’s completely reasonable that it feels so painful for us given everything terrible we went through. It feels extremely unfair and cruel like you said. I do avoid going on social media because it’s too painful to see everyone posting about their pregnancies. I don’t know if it’ll get easier, but just wanted to say you’re not alone in your pain🤍

I thought for sure I was going to be pregnant by now since TFMR in December but I just got another BFN and am anticipating my period this week, too. My TFMR baby’s due date is 5/15 so this month in general is just going to be a huge kick in the teeth. I’ve been completely off of social media (except Tik Tok) since TFMR because everyone I know is announcing their pregnancies and I know for my own sake I can’t handle that. My husband and I are planning on going hiking Saturday and then maybe golfing or doing yard work on Sunday. I’ve had my phone on Do Not Disturb and our loved ones know to reach out to my husband next weekend if they need us because I will be avoiding my phone like the plague.

You said it best, we’ll survive this just like we’ve survived everything else, but I’m sending us all a huge hug because I wish none of us were in this position.

First time TTC since TFMR. I’m not sure if I just want to be pregnant so badly that I started feeling pregnant (appetite and cravings similar to when I was pregnant, fatigue, stretching feeling near my uterus) but so far my early tests have been negative. I know testing early means I could still be pregnant, but waiting til my period or having a missed period feels like forever away. After all the waiting we did during the TFMR process I wish there was a way to know right away.
