Need a cry - AF arrived.

[Bisous]

Sorry, feel like i need a shoulder to cry on.... I am feeling really low as AF just arrived, i was convinced i was pregnant this time. DS is 3.5yrs he took 3 years and 3 MC before he finally arrived. We decided to try for #2 8months ago after 6 months i started Clomid. This was my second cycle. My doc says we can try for 3 more months and if nothing, we'll talk about 'other options'. I don't know if I really want to start going down the IVF route (its very tough from what i hear). I'm thinking maybe i should be grateful to have DS and leave it at that! But he so wants a baby brother or sister and asks me every day.

Just feel sad that yet again it's not working, why me? why's it not working? I don't feel as if i have anyone to talk to (apart from DH, but it's not the same as a girlfriend) as friends and family are all going through their own 'stuff' at the moment.

I'm not looking for anyone to reply, just really needed to get it out there. If anyone reads this, thank you for taking the time.

I'm so sorry ~ offers a hug and a big bar of chocolate~

You're not alone, AF is starting for me today, 4th cycle of TTCing for #2 and starting to despair. Tomorrow I will find my PMA for next month and fingers crossed you do too.

Hiya, I've not had your probs but I had a mmc in June last year. Been trying since but nothing. My baby was due at end of dec so can't help thinking I should b at home with my baby now. I'm 40 in April so feel time's running out. My period is due today and I've had period pain for a few days so.... It's so hard not to get ur hopes up- I know how u feel.

Bisous my heart really goes out to you. I know of others who are also having difficulties and it is so unfair. It must be especially hard for you as your DS asks for a brother or sister. It would be easy for people to say enjoy and be grateful for the one you have, but it doesn't make it any easier that in an ideal world you would like to expand your family and I think you are really justified in feeling dissapointed. But as you rightly acknowledge, at least you do have your DS. I wish I could say something that would make you feel better, but I know that I cannot. I only hope that time will bless you with another addition to the family and that you can have some better days to make life more enjoyable than it is today. xxx

Thank you ladies, it means a lot to know that people listen and care. Going through this feels like a very lonely experience sometimes. Thank you

It's rotten isn't it. Sorry you've not had any luck this month. Me either.

Stupid period was 4 days late, just to get my hopes up...

So sorry, Bisous. It is really crap when your body keeps on and keeps on letting you down. I hope you get your + . I thought it never would happen for me with DC4, but it did in the end (after 6 years of ttc).

Bisous and anyone else- if you find yourselves really low and with no-one to rant at either on here or in Rl, you may like this thread. A bunch of amazingly supportive ladies with crappy ttc histories. Got me through 3 years of this crap.

Thanks!

@poissonrouge. Sorry for you too. Mine was 2 days late, so was getting excited!

@duchesse thanks for the thread recommendation

I am sending you heartfelt hugs - don't give up, age is no barrier (she says hopefully - I'm 40 already!)..
