[fertility-journey-20s]

Feeling like a silly little girl.

I wonder who else my age feels like this. I'm 28 now and I feel like im at a weird age to be almost starring IVF and going through unexplained infertility.

I think its a bit of a mash between 2 different lives I have.

On one hand i have plenty of friends who had kids young, either in their late teens, their early twenties or now at the same time as me trying to get pregnant. These friends either aren't in employment or are in "lower paid" jobs as awful as that sounds its true in this case. These are the people I compare myself with the most, feeling like I'm falling behind, by the time I have kids of my own their kids will be in primary or high school and won't have a single thing in common with my kids. They won't be friends. As a woman (and even men think this I know my husband does!) You have this image in your head of your kids and your closest friends kids hanging out and being best friends too.

On the other hand, I work in a role (in which I feel is much bigger than I am and often feel out of my depth!) Where people are very career driven, these people went to uni, want to progress in their field and kids are not high on their agenda, or those who have kids they had them in their 30s once they got where they wanted in their job. I dont feel like these people understand my pain. Make it seem like I've got plenty of time to have kids.

But thays not how I wanted my timeline to go. I wanted 2 kids and I didn't want to be an older mum. I have reasons for both.

I wanted to have more than one as both me and my husband are only children, it's tough and it's really tough when you have to deal with the death of a parent.

I didnt want us to be older parents because I don't want my children to be in their 20s/30s when I die. As morbid as that sounds my husband lost his dad unexpectedly at the age of 26 from natural causes. His dad had just turned 60. I want our children to have as much time as possible with us and vice versa.

I just feel like when I told my manager about the IVF which is approaching I don't think she understood my pain very well. She understood the process as she had a friend who went through IVF but she was in her 30s.

Unexplained infertility is weird too because there's nothing wrong (allegedly) so it's like... Well.... it might still happen. Statistically I don't think it will, the older we get the smaller our chances are.

I'm just having a moment. Today is officially 2years since we started and I know that's not long compared to others but it's a significant milestone in the TTC world. I'm now just eagerly awaiting our next fertility appointment. I haven't ovulatd yet and I should have but I'm not having any symptoms. Even though I experienced some random spotting 2 days ago (I thought this was ovulation spotting) but then today I came across feeling unwell, I felt dizzy, my back was hurting, I felt sickly I thought I was going to pass out. Im glad I was able to get some fresh air. So obviously my first thoughts are "omg what If I'm actually pregnant! What if my weird period was actually implantation bleeding even though it had clots and actually resembled a period eventually" even though I did take a test after my period "just in case" and it was very negative.

I am not handling the miscarriages well. I feel pathetic for still being heartbroken since finding out I was pregnant with baby #1 and then again with baby #2. I should be moving on since it’s been a while but all I feel is sadness. Like a part of me is gone. Their due dates months were really hard and Baby #1 was conceived in august and it’s now august again and my heart hurts so much. I still catch myself touching my stomach when I get stressed or sad (just like I did when I was pregnant and would talk to babes). It’s like a subconscious move but once I realize it just makes me hurt again. I feel so pathetic for being sad. It was months ago. They were early losses. But Baby #2 was the hardest emotionally and physically. And I just don’t know how to feel better. A doesn’t understand. I can’t blame him. He didn’t have the same attachment as I did since it was my body ya know. But still I feel ashamed to still be struggling. I feel so alone

Everything has been so stressful

It’s been a year. A year of buying and taking prenatal vitamins, peeing on ovulation strips, seeing the positive test, tracking my cycle on multiple apps, doing all the things, reading all the things, and ending up disappointed month after month. Except for July, because I had Covid, and now not this month because I started Clomid, which worked exponentially better than anticipated, and instead of 2-3 follicles produced an astounding 9. That means, the likelihood of multiples (more than twins) was very possible and not worth the chances according to the doctor. This left me with taking all the meds and reaping the side effects, but nothing to show for it other than an uncomfortably bloated stomach and cancelled IUI treatment. I’ve never anticipated my next period more than this upcoming month, which usually is a day ruiner. Just a few days left…

Infertility Part 14: Money Stress

This was written during a period of financial stress and highlights a huge reality that most people don't consider, yet I hope can understand and relate to, as most people have some sort of financial stress in our lives. Ours is just different than most.

Warning: I do my fair share of venting in this one. I wrote this during a period of immense financial stress and frustration. This is part of the reality of infertility that many people just don’t even realize or think about. I will not apologize for the feelings I had/have, but please know that I hold no ill feelings towards those who have never dealt with this type of money stress. We all need…

Anyone else who’s TTC - did maca root help? I’ve been seeing it on my TikTok and wondered if it was legit or not.

I do have PCOS so not sure if it’s suitable. Just looking for other peoples experiences with it! 🥰

I'm tired...

Of putting on this facade every day.

Of being the happy, giddy, excitable woman.

Of faking how I feel every single day.

Of pushing down all the feelings I feel and to pretend everythings OK.

Of feeling like our life together isn't complete yet.

Of feeling shame, because I should be grateful for what I do have.

Of people complaining about a life I dream about.

I want to shout...

I'm not OK.

There's emptiness inside of me.

Why can't I have what everyone else has?

Life isn't fair.

What if I can never have my own children

What if I never experience pregnancy

Am I being punished?

me, when anyone’s go-to advice is “just pray”

please remember not everyone is religious, and some people don’t like to be “prayed for” or told to “just pray”.

assumption is one of the worst non violent things I can think of.

I miss my angel babies so bad. Some days I can handle the sadness but other days I feel a huge loss in my heart that no words can ever explain. I want to cry all the time. I want my babies back. I am jealous of those that got to carry theirs to term. I feel pathetic. I hate my body and I don’t understand why it cannot do what others can do. I can’t really talk about this with other people. When does the sadness go away? It feels like it never will

So Im currently ttc and I have been in the prepping phase for the last year. For the first time in my life my periods had become incredibly regular and predictable including ovulation for the entire last year, but NOW as soon as I am about to try a round of ICI in about a month and a half my period gets all weird and not predictable?????

So now Im stressing which is the last thing I need to be doing right now to get it regular again 🙃
