A little later than expected, it's over once again. What's impending bad news if it's not dragged out a little for extra punch and dramatic effect, eh?
Twenty three over and done with, this is getting impressive, no?
Even the dumbest animals walking the planet wouldn't be coming back for more after twenty three kicks up the hole.
Roll the dice, move along, roll again, up the ladder.
Roll the dice, move along, roll again, down the snake.
Start over again and again. In a game that's rigged.
Tell me, what is worse, not being able to help the person you want to help the most, or having the person you need help from the most not able to help you?

Oh, crap. I am so very, very sorry.
No-one can say that you guys haven't given this your absolute best shot, no pun intended. Rounds of IUI and IVF are gruelling, but surely no worse than these endless months of disappointment.
Bugger. I'm so sorry. Will the medical world finally get it's arse into gear now? About your dilemma in the last paragraph - I would imagine that both feel equally shitty.
Maybe you need to kick over the board and try a different game?
Monogamy Monopoly?
Operation?
Twister?
Life?
Go To The Head Of The Class?
Sorry - stay away from this one
Don't Spill The Seed - ditto
Any other game suggestions?
I know, it sucks.
not being able to help the person you want to help most is worse cos with the alternative you can kinda blame them for not helping and blame yourself for expecting too much from them
the whole things after getting muddled in my mind, but my explanation was there and it was solid.
are there masochistic animals?
It sucks doesn't it? I think its worse to have an unexplained infertility, because you don;t know what problem to deal with....shish! AF is round the corner for me too, but then we didnt really try this month, but old habiots die hard
Ah NO NO NO!!! It wasn't supposed to end like this... so sorry.... :(
Ah shit!
I think it's destined for us to have IUI around the same time....
I'm really sorry....
THING IN A NUT SHELL IS.......YOU ARE GOING TO TRY AGAIN.....YOU ARE GOINg to try again....you are going to try again
Hellfire.
Life isn't even close to being fair.
I was where you were at one point, only I was 12 months in and ready to throw my hands up. I suppose you keep on until you just can't anymore. I know it's not a consolation, but all it takes is once and then you look back and it's all worth it. Sorry this wasn't your month, hang in there for each other.
oh shit
It just all sucks.
Sorry this wasn't the one.
Thinking of you.
Dammit
Shit, very sorry. I know how terribly this sucks ass. In regard to the last - neither is worse. You are completely together in this; you don't go 23 rounds if you're not. But, I know words don't help.
Bloody hell.
Seems AF is building up the frequent flier miles this month. I'll kick her in the nuts for you when she arrives tomorrow.
I wish I had something comforting to say, but I know there's not much anyone can do or say to lessen this blow. My heart is still full of hope for you two.
It all fucking blows.
WEll. 23 cycles had made it pretty clear that this thing was going to need some intervention to happen. I'm not so sure why the doctors can't see it that way. But as your stats told you, chances were decreasing all the time. At least now you can do something more than hope.
I posted, and the internets ate my comment to punish it for not being GOOD enough, not that there is anything GOOD enough to say at this point. I am just so sorry. I was really hoping you could be the bloody infuriating 'and then, the month before they went to the specialist...' couple.
Wish I could say something other than that I'm really pissed off for you.
This is shitty news...I guess now the doctor's will help, yes? Better late than never I suppose, my good friend just found out she is pregnant after 4 years of trying so keep the faith! On a side note, apparently my cycle has linked up with ET's, although we too were keeping our fingers crossed that AF would miss our house I guess I just needed her to start and then I would. Here's to trying again next month...and hopefully it's more fun and a lot more productive!
I'm so sorry. I can't remember, did you guys have plans for some ART coming up?
Bugger bollocks arses!
At what point do you get moved up a gear and given other options?
Le Sigh...
Sorry. So very very sorry.
Cripes.
Well, trying to look on the bright side (or not so crappy side as the case may be). Say you had become pregnant without medical intervention. When/if you decided to go for child #2, would your health system have made you wait for 2 years before giving any assistance? And now, since you will be most likely be getting assistance, when/if you try for #2 will you be able to jump to the head of the line, so to speak, and not have to wait for help?
I'm sorry. The disappointment just gets so freaking old, doesn't it?
fuck shit damn.
i'm so sorry.
:*(
I don't know how you keep coming up with things to say when this happens. I've run out so I'll just trot out the same old line...I'm so so sorry. In a week where a woman gave birth to 8 babies I was really hoping the universe would send you just one this month. And now I'm really hoping somebody in the medical establishment gets their fucking finger out and gives you guys some help.
Aww, fuck. I'm so sorry X.
So sorry. Hope you can move ahead with treatment now.
*Sigh* Keep the faith and press on with treatment.
Gah!
Ready to notch it up a gear with cycle 24?
That hurts me. I can only imagine...
Sorry man.
Fuck it.
I think it is FUCKING TIME to kick and scream and BLOW the FRIGGIN HOUSE DOWN at the health professionals in your town. I'm MAD AS HELL AND NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE...
Ahem, jeez, I'm trying to take some of your pain away or internalize it or do something to help you unload....I know that all of us who follow you just cannot believe this continues for the two of you....
Maybe if I started believing in God again that would make a difference...dunno...
WISHING you and ET relief from this agony any way that you can get it 'X'...I really truly am....
Am really sorry to hear that and I know words can't help your frustration, pain and distress but like everyone else here, am thinking of you both.
Lorna
I'm so sorry. again.
Stupid croc doc better get her game on.
So very sorry, I understand your pain.
Well that just fuckin sucks.
(Love the Snakes and Ladders analogy btw, can totally relate to that)
Well...
I am so sorry. There are no words.
Actually just one;
bugger.
I think it's time you moved on to play 'Frustration'.
I wish I had something more intelligent to say, but I don't so you'll have to continue to put up with stupid comments.
Besides, it could be worse, you could be a Newcastle supporter too!
Damn, I'm so sorry.
I never liked the number 23.
I don't like odd numbers.
They are odd.
oh and fuck it. But you already knew that.
You haven't killed each other yet. After this hell, that proves love more than anything.
However sweet that may be, I don't want to be that one person on the train that finally pisses you off at just the right time. And you couldn't pay me to say the wrong thing to ET right now. No.freaking.way.
Wha the fuh. Man, I'm so sorry, Xbox. It just sucks, sucks, sucks...and then sucks some more.
@Everyone - Thanks for the shits and fucks. I appreciate a good excremental exclamation of disappointment.
Next steps? next entry....
This was not quite the post I was looking for... or forward to for that matter.
Fertility issues suck. Period. No crappy pun intended.
