FET is a big ole negative
We're just returning from our holiday weekend up north in Michigan from at my parent's cottage on Lake Huron. Despite having a great time, I woke up Saturday morning to my period. I wasn't terribly surprised since I had cheated and taken a few home tests prior to my beta at the RE's. All of which were negative. Hmmm. But it was still a blow to any last minute hopes, or any Hail Mary's I was hoping might make their appearance. In fact we decided to stay up north one more day and we returned today on Labor Day. I didn't feel like there was any point in cutting our trip short to get lab work drawn when I would know the result. So tomorrow morning I'll get up early and head down to the office for the last of the formality that will end our cycle. So a twin miscarriage and now a FET that didn't have a positive ending...I guess it's back to the drawing board. Right now I'm not sure what we'll do next. We've talked that this may be it for now - but to be honest I'm not sure what looms in the near future. We're out of embryos, and the thought of forking over $17,000 out of pocket for another fresh IVF cycle seems a bit daunting at this point in our lives. So we'll see. Thanks for the good wishes and checking in. Infertility bites sometimes, huh? It just plain sucks.

So sorry, Sara, thinking of you with <3.
Infertility totally bites...
Sorry to hear that.
I did three IVF - all failed... Infertility sucks (morally and financially)
Give a big hug to your daughter, it will make you feel much better...
I'm so sorry! This is all so unfair and I wish I had something to say beyond "i'm sorry". I'll be thinking of you all as you heal from this
Ah, Sara, that really sucks. I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry :-(
Oh crap! Hugs to you!
Giant hugs! I hate the financial burden of IF. Sending you you peace...
I'm so sorry Sara. This sucks big time. (((hugs)))
it SUCKS. infertility is brutal. i hate it. i try not to be bitter, but it's hard.
i'm sorry for y'all.
Oh, I'm so, so sorry. That really sucks.
I'm so sorry to hear it didn't work. Infertility is hard in every way. I don't look forward to when we decide to start trying again. God will have to tell me when it's time because the thought of it makes me feel ill. :(
((hugs))
I'm so sorry Sarah, you still have time you are very young and give yourself little time to recover and try again. Don't give up your dreams and hopes. Life is full of surprises. Infertility sucks I have been there, but like I said before don't give up hope. I'll be thinking of you and your family.
I am so sorry honey.
I'm so sorry, Sara.
I am so sorry! This totally sucks. Praying for you.
I'm so sorry the cycle didn't end with a better outcome.
Big, huge ((HUGS))!
All I can say is I'm sorry and will be praying for you guys :(
I was hoping that things would be different. Infertility does suck! My thoughts and prayers will be with you as you decide where to go from here.
Damn. I'm so sorry. I'm sorry that money plays a part in deciding family size but I'm right there too so I know what you mean. Thinking of you and sending hugs.
HUGS. I am so sorry
Oh Sara, I'm sorry! You've been on my mind a lot and I was really praying hard you'd have a different outcome. (((hugs)))
Aw, babe, I am so sorry to hear this. The financial part of this stuff is a bitch. There is no other way to say it. Thinking of you...
I'm so sorry this cycle didn't work. You sound like you are in an okay place...I am impressed. Don't stress yourself out trying to make a plan now, there's time for that later.
And infertility definitely does suck.
I'm so sorry, love.
I am so, so sorry. Thinking of you and praying for what's to come.
xoxo
Aw crap! Crap, crap, crap...I am so sorry sweetie. Sending great big, squishy ((hugs))
Oh Sara, I am so sorry. It does suck :(
I am sorry. I was really praying for a positive. Infertility is a very hard pill to swallow.
Sara, I've been following your blog since the beginning but never left a comment. I am so so SO sorry for the outcome of this cycle! I've been hoping and hoping to read happy news from you! Like someone else here said earlier, hug your beautiful daughter, she'll help! Peace to you!
I am sorry. You are right ... infertility sucks!!!
i'm so sorry.
Oh Sara ... I'm so sorry. Sending big HUGS your way.
Infertility bites waaaay too often to all the wrong people. Big ole hugs, hun!
So sorry Sara. I'm thinking of you and your husband during this time.
so sorry your FET didn't work out. Was wondering if you've considered Frozen Embryo Adoption. It's cheaper sometimes and I've read that it sometimes works better for some reason.
I'm so sorry sweetie. Please know I'm thinking of you and sending you a huge hug from Oregon.
*HUGS*
Oh no! I'm so, so sorry.
I'm so sorry Sara. Infertility DOES suck, so this is me, sending virtual chocolate and lots of wine your direction.
Thinking of you this week!
Sara, so sorry.. I agree with everyone else it sucks..
I'm sorry Sara, truly. I know the heartbreak the negative brings. Please allow yourself to feel and decide what is your next best step, but don't give up hope. (hugs)

I'm so sorry to hear the bad news. Thinking of you. <3
I'm really sorry Sara, that f***ing sucks. Hope you are doing okay.
Sara I'm SO sorry to read your news. BFNs are so hard and BFNs from your last frozen embryos are even harder. It's that feeling of being back at square one all over again. Its cruel, and I'm so sorry. x
I am so very sorry, Sara.
Hoping both of us do better, soon.
It gets hard to keep summoning up the resources, though, huh?
much love,
g
