Hi ladies
Sorry for my silence of late. I’ve been lurking on here and following everyone’s progress, but didn’t feel as though I could contribute much because we’ve just been playing a waiting game with this ivf treatment. I’ve also (unsuccessfully) been trying to take my mind off everything, too.
jamon congrats on the frozen embryos- that’s fantastic news!
I’m on the short protocol so have another couple of weeks taking the combined pill, then egg collection scheduled early Jan. It’s our first cycle so I’m anxious and finding it all a little difficult to come to terms with.
pyjamas hope you’re feeling better. I’m also starting a new job in January and am plagued by thoughts of not being good enough. This infertility rocks you to the core and I hate how I now question every single ability I used to be confident in. I’m convinced it’s all linked. Take care of yourself.
I noticed a few posts a while back about friends simply not ‘getting it’ and can completely understand. Since starting the treatment, I’ve stopped drinking and therefore haven’t been as social as usual and I’m astounded at how much that has affected friendships that I previously thought were unshakable. Everyone knows what I’m doing and yet the support has been virtually nonexistent. Feels as though life is happening around me at the moment.
So anyway just a little note there to keep in touch. Good luck everyone and I’ll try and be a little more active in the coming weeks!
