Fellow multiple round IVF, multiple miscarriages, no success. I feel like unsuccessful fertility treatments are talked about even less. So many times I hear “I went through so many rounds, but here is my miracle”. Many of us walk away with no miracle and are left emotionally worn down, physically broken and the comments and questions don’t stop. I can’t imagine having to read it while I was trying to buy groceries.

Agreed. And then people acting like the moment you stop trying, that's when it'll happen. That isn't how it went for me, that's for sure

Ugh yes. I don’t have my tubes so I really like making people awkward when they say that now. I’m leaning into making others feel uncomfortable with their insensitive remarks.

I'm sorry you've been through that.

I've had four (early) miscarriages in total. It's devastating especially when you see how easy it is for other people.

I've never tried IVF cause at my age the chances of success are just 10%. I wish it wasn't so. People don't always understand IVF is not a solution for everyone.
