frankie_bug's Journal, 13 Mar 20

So, my appointment, which should have been early Feb, is now mid-april and likely to be changed again because of corvid-19. At which point I won't have enough between the appointment and my 35th birthday to jump through all the hoops and work my way up the waiting list. So, if I don't get seen in April, we've pretty much decided there's no point in going forward, we'd just be tying up appointments that would be better given to someone with a chance of actually getting treatment. I'm not dealing well with the idea of saying goodbye to my last chance of being a mother. Coming on top of the stress I'm already dealing with this has sent me into a depressed and anxious mess. So I'm writing off this weekend. Balls to whatever weight I put on, seeing as it isn't at all likely to matter anymore, and I'll see if I can drag myself out of this funk next week

Don’t give up on the treatment or getting healthier. I can’t imagine how frustrating it must be, or how you must be feeling. Have hope 💕

Oh darling my heart goes out to you😢keep strong they might give lee way so don’t give up hope. I never had the chance to get help as I was to old by the time I found out there were problems.. life can still be great without children. We fostered for 10 yrs I know it’s not for everyone but I had loads of fun

Hi love sending hugs to you. life can sometimes feel so unfair, I'm sure it's NOT too late for you . It's easy to say I know but the constant stress and worry doesn't help Please don't give up . I had my youngest son age 39 only when I gave up stress of full time working for a while.

My friend lost 10% of her body weight in a month and got pregnant. Being at a healthy weight increases fertility. (Disclaimer: I didn’t read anything besides this post and know nothing else about you)

Please don't give up. My now late wife miscarried serveral times following fertility treatment and was told to the have hysterectomy so couldn't have baby. We adopted 2 beautiful babies. My kids are 19 and 22 now and they are the best thing ever to me. Keep strong lass x

Just reading this has put a big lump in my throat my heart goes out to you but don’t give up hope because Deep down you know you’ve put too much in to just give up and throw in the towel, at the moment your going to feel mad and bitter and upset all into one but in time it’ll just make you stronger for when you are a parent you will get there it’s just another one of life’s problems you will get past and overcome so don’t give up on what you deserve X

This made me sad. One thing to keep in mind, the person that you would be going to see for your appointment will not be dealing with Corona (unless they are infected) as would not be the same department. Your appointment could well go ahead. Never NEVER give up. Have your blow out this weekend then move on to positivity x

Thanks everyone, but non essential out patients appointments are being postponed and, because this is my first meeting with the specialist, that's what my appointment is. And, at nearly 34, with the NHS cutting fertility treatment at 35, a waiting list of over 6 months for IVF, and many months of hoops to jump through before you get on the waiting list, another delay means I literally don't have any time left. It's so selfish and petty in the face of the things other people are going through with this virus, but I can't help but think that all the other issues will eventually be sorted, leaving me childless for the rest of my life. I've done everything right, and I have nothing at all to show for it.

☹️ and is there no chance of this happening without IVF? You may not have a child at the moment but you have a loving partner and you don’t have a 100lbs of fat anymore. If things don’t work out like Dave said adopting is a very rewarding option where you literally change a life for the better.

I'm so sorry to hear this. Please don't feel that everything you've done is for nothing, you never know where life will take you and your determination so far and the incredible changes you've made won't be for nothing

I have sever PCOS. Multiple 21st day tests have shown in not ovulating (in fact my symptoms have gotten steadily worse with my deceased weight, go figure) IVF is it. And even that would be a hail mary. But at least with that as a possibility I still had some hope
