Keep the Faith

Post by wantarugrat »

Denise M, Jag, Kagome and all the rest of us who have not received positive results these past few weeks:

I am truly sorry to everyone (myself included) facing a challenging and dissapointing outcome. It is so difficult to know why things don't happen they way we want them to. It seems unfair but we know that "life isn't about fairness" and sometimes, it just means that we have to be that much stronger to wake up and face a new day with a new plan, to move forward and realize the dreams we can't let go of. The simple dream of having a child will be ours, it just may take a little longer than we thought or may come wrapped in a different package than we envisioned. Just know and believe IT WILL happen!

"Success is often achieved by those who don't know that failure is inevitable" - Coco Chanel.

With love and blessings for a brighter tomorrow,

Wanda.

Thank-you. As you well know, this can be very disappointing and frustrating.

Thank God for the women on this site. Who can truly know where I am, except those who are walking the same path.

Love you all

Hello All,
Despite my great pleasure in getting my +ive result I also feel very sad for those of you who have not been successful. This was our 3rd (and final) IVF so I truly know how disappointed all of you feel. Following my 2nd -ive I was sooo sure that I would never be in this positiion but look, it has happened. I'm sure it will happen for many of you too. I know it's hard to keep positive (goodness knows I'm the last person to preach about keeping up a PMA) but good things can and do happen. I truly believe that things happen for a reason so if things haven't worked for you this time then this is meant to be but who knows on your next cycle.

Try not to lose hope and I hope that you all get what you want.

Take care all

Love
Debbie

Debbieed, it's replies like yours that give us the strength and motivation to move forward, I know it has for me. This is certainly not a game for the faint of heart nor a lack of positive thinking.

Niki, I'm sorry to learn of your recent dissapointment. Yup, sometimes life sucks and bites the big one. Well, we're all just gonna bite right back and take a big chunk out of Mother Nature's Ass! :D

Love to you all.

We are in this together ladies - we WILL do it!

Probably late Oct. for me. I have to take 1 cycle off, then after that I can start on a Day 1 again.

Although, when you want her, AF is always late!!

Nicki, how are you doing today? Feeling worried for you.

Wanda,
I admire your strength during this time. I know how you're feeling because my first IVF failed. I went through such a depression, but had faith that it WOULD happend when the time was right. With this second IVF, it was positive. I am still nervous because my center takes a few blood tests just to make sure the pregnancy is progressing. So far so good, but it's not as high as it should be.
Well, we'll keep our fingers crossed!
Wanda & all the other gals on this message board...Thank you so much for being so helpful & positive. I wish all of us futures filled with babies!!!
:D
