Infertility

Another BFN

I know we’ve all been here, many times, but today I POAS. I waited until CD33 and had symptoms that could’ve indicated pregnancy and for the first time in a few months actually let myself slightly get my hopes up. But no. BFN. Not expecting advice/help here, just wanted to feel like I was around people who understand the gut-wrenching disappointment...

I understand :( I'm so sorry. It's bad enough getting negative tests anyway, but when you've had a tiny bit of hope due to symptoms, it's way worse.

And try as we might not to "symptom spot", it's well nigh impossible to ignore what your body is doing, so achy boobs will always mean "there's a small chance", even when our rational heads tell us it is SO unlikely.

Try to do something that will cheer you up today. I usually go and get a really nice drink from a coffee shop when I get a negative test, and just sit quietly for a while.

@Dinosauraddict I totally understand. I have just come on after being a few days late. I convinced myself this month was different and started symptom spotting 🤦🏼‍♀️ I thought yes after 21 unwanted periods I'm finally pregnant! I'm sorry you feel like this, it's shit and I feel your pain. I opted for a dog walk and a large glass of Wine
Thanks

Thanks @Changing and @Roxy, I really appreciate it. I also opted for a dog walk, and the alcohol is chilling in the fridge.
