anyone over 35 going for fertility treatments this year? IUI, IVF etc

[crystal443]

That's what I would think Sarah.

Hey, maybe the people that entered the result, were the same compentent staff that refused to handle the jizz.

I was thinking this

Sara- I had a good go at someone on here awhile ago over unexplained infertility...she had a poll going about reasons for unexplained infertilty and I think her top reasons were age, being overwieght and a few other ridiculous reasons. She had been trying for a few months I think Anyway I had a go at her I didn't really care if I got told off because #1 I'm not a child and #2 why would baby and bump let someone post false information?? The hope thread I'd like to completley eliminate those from ever being typed again...as Ready said it only makes me feel more broken, you have a right to type a thread in response

I think so too, although the others have made good points too in that this section is for people who havent been LTTC and so they like to hear that stuff, so good for them. I think the point I was trying to make has been lost in that someone being able to conceive within 3 months is not really giving hope to those over 35. its the whole hope thing I have a problem with, not that someone is sharing their success.

God, it feels like forever since we had hope.

It pisses me off that they post in the ttc section. Isn't there a success story section, or pregnancy/birth announcement area where those that 'want' hope can go and look for it?
It's not a ttc post that she started. So, it really is not in the right forum.

Frankly, I want to tell them all to GFY!!

 

[GreenFingers]

God I totally missed that post, I'm going to try and find it now though! Why would anyone do that, to me it comes across at gloating!!!

Dmon I am so sorry about your Dr, try and put it out of your mind as there is nothing you can do, if you hadn't been told you would be none the wiser...I have everything crossed it will be ok x x

LL 12 follicles is wonderful, you must be thrilled x x

Should I start a thread?

 

[dachsundmom]

GFY always works! LOL

 

[readyformore]

GFY always works! LOL

Well, then I would come across as 'bitter', 'negative', and 'self absorbed'.

 

[dachsundmom]

Would that be the opposite of hope?

 

[readyformore]

I actually started a thread in the ltttc forum. I asked women if they disliked the messages of hope, or if they found them encouraging.

It turned into a debate about how many children I have.
Those chicks over there are MEAN. I actually had to request that my own thread be removed.

We should copy her post and send it over to ltttc! They'd chew her up and spit her out. They can be scary.

 

[crystal443]

Sarah- Some ladies do like the hope posts I wish those posts gave me hope but there are stories like Brooke's that honestly do give me hope and those are the ones that make me want to keep going We'll get there

Ready- I think for me and yourself and a few other ladies the hope posts make us feel even more "broken" because we've been 20 something ladies that have turned into 35+ ladies with infertility and for me I think that's where it stings. Some ladies try 1 month at 39 or 40 and are able to get pregnant and I've been trying for 15 years and I can't do it. I don't begrudge anyone a BFP but it does feel like I always get passed by for a BFP so yeah it does hurt and it does sting. That's why Brooke's BFP is so important to us because she's tried so long and I think we all cherish her success...hope that made some sense

Made sense to me.

You know, I actually do like some of the hope messages. Specifically those that have been ttc longer than me or had much more difficult circumstances. It's those, "I ttc 8 months and gave up all hope," that makes me want to vomit.

And honestly, when you've been ttc for as long as you have, I don't know how you can even tolerate those that whine after ttc for a few months, (like me ).

You're a good person.

Your not a whiner Your brutally honest which I love

I am getting a new one, after he scans me next week. Can't do this anymore.

I agree...be done with him!

Yes but not counting victory yet, far from it. Last cycle 8 made it to day 5 and only one of the 5 was supposedly good ...yet it wasn't. So not a numbers game for me unfortunately hehehe
