Huge hugs. I'm really so sorry. I hate it when they wait. I think sometimes when it's bad news, they wait because they don't want to make the call. Can't say I blame them, but still, it's shitty.

That is just such bullshit - the whole thing. I'm so sorry for your bad news. ((HUGS))
I'm really sorry. I had nearly 10 years of the same experience, getting that negative test. I know it's a horrible, heartbreaking feeling, and I'm sorry you're going through it. Many hugs...
I am really sorry.
Damn it! I'm so sorry. Especially for that mind fuck prometrium.

I'm sorry to say we can both drink away our sorrows tonight.
Here's to next month, and our long awaited, sticky BFP's.
Hang in there.
Damn infertility to hell !!!! So sorry!
