Advice/support needed - Please help!

[Kirstymacdd]

Just had an unsuccessful third round of ivf. Got my period 10 days after ET. Devastated. Had top quality embryo on round 2 and last 2 times had a day 5 transfer. This time both embryos were grade c. I’ll be 44 next month and just feel like it’s all over. Not sure what to do as have wanted this for so long and just feel like a complete failure. Not helped by working with younger women who get pregnant at the drop of a hat and say things like, oh we weren’t even really trying! Feel very down. Any advice or support gratefully received.

Please if anyone can give some advice or support it would be greatly app. I’ve reached out before but not had any response. I really need some support.

I'm so sorry, I don't think there's any useful advice I can give, but I'm thinking of you and I really hope the universe sends some comfort and hope your way. This is such a difficult road we're all travelling.

@Scirocco thank you. I appreciate you taking the time to send a res. Kind of feel all on my own. I know there’s not much anyone can say but just to know someone is thinking of me helps. It’s been a very difficult time.

I can empathise with you about how hard it is with people at work going "oh wow, I'm pregnant, what a surprise!". One of my colleagues's wife is pregnant and his office has scan pictures up in it and baby shower mementos. I'm happy for him and for her, but it's hard to keep the pain hidden.

I'm so sorry @Kirstymacdd - sounds like you've really been through it. I'm just starting my ivf journey (aged 39) and I'm amazed at how strong and resilient everyone is. But also how we take our own mental and physical wellbeing for granted. Take some time for you and just feel whatever it is you feel. There's plenty of people who can support you - I'm happy to chat if I can help in any way so you don't feel quite so alone.
