Orla,

I'm really sorry to hear your bad news. It's important that you let all your feelings out, and crying will help you I'm sure. You're probably still feeling a bit numb from the dissappointment at the moment, hence the delay in the tears. I wish I could help you. So, I'm sending you lots of caring hugs.

As for the rest of us we still have the trauma of testing to come, and there is nothing that we can do which will change the outcomes, so don't hurt yourself thinking of everyone else, concentrate on looking after yourself and make sure that those people around you give you lots of TLC.

Take care.

Orla,

I'm so so sorry you got bad news today :( .

I know it's a long shot but is there any chance you tested too early?

Be nice to yourself and dh
I'm sending you a very big virtual hug.

Orla,

As Toni says is there any possibility it's too early?

I was tested in the Cambridge clinic just two days before you, and yet my ET was only a day before yours, and I've now got to wait until Monday for a definate result.

I understand from what I have read in a Zita West fertility book that the HCG levels double every 48 hours in the first few weeks. So if your little ones embedded late, she say it can take between 3-5 days to embed then it might be worth testing again next week?

From other topics on the message boards other clinics seem to wait longer before testing. I know it's very frustrating for you at the moment as like me its your first attempt, and you really don't know what to expect, or how your going to feel. Your guided by what the clinic says which leaves you on an emotional roller coaster. I don't want to get your hopes up but I feel that we are in a similar position as our dates were so close together, and yet I've been advised to test later than you have.

Lots of hugs

Orla,

just logged in to find your news.

not good.

maybe there is a little hope?? :?

if you have a negative result, cry cry and cry till you have no more tears.. and then cry again.... (this helps me!) and allow your sorrow to be the first, allow yourself to be unhappy...

big big hug of comfort

Hi everyone

Thankyou for all your support, unfortunately it is a definite negative as my AF started on Friday night. Too be honest it is even more painful than usual. I decided to have acouple of days just to myself so that is why i havent been on the board since Friday.

We seem to have come to terms with it, we feel that obviously this time it wasnt meant to be and that is it. Our review appointment will be in 6-12 weeks so then we can go forward again after that.

I suppose over the next month as well as christmas we are also moving house so that will occupy us quite a bit.


Thanks for all your support. I will still be on the board. Good luck to all of you at your various stages.


Love

Orla

Hi Orla

Just wanted to say sorry for your -ve result :(

Unfortunately, mine was too :cry:

Mine was my second attempt. We have 2 frozen embies left, but to be honest, we're not sure how they'll do. We lost 3 to the defrosting process
this time.

I can't seem to cry. I don't know why. I'm just fed up with it all. Life is so unfair :x

Love Suz
