Shes fairly inarticulate but good that she addressed it
So true. She never expressed any true regret at the pain she's clearly caused.I watched the stories and really admire the person who messaged her. I felt her response was totally incoherent at times and honestly I just there was a serious under current of rage throughout it. She was clearly very annoyed that someone said it to her because I think in her view she is the oracle of IVF and has appointed herself leader of that community of people. Props to her for addressing it but not convinced that the motivation was to acknowledge the hurt so much as labour the point that she knows what it’s like to go through IVF. It reminded me of when someone says I’m sorry you feel that way instead of I’m sorry for what I did.
Exactly! She didn’t even mention the baby really to me this manifestation stuff has only been very noticeable since she got pregnant and announced it!! No doubt she’s had huge success and she got another chance to let us all knowshe never actually said "i didnt manifest jude and i am sorry for saying i did"
Exactly! She had to keep cutting her stories because she kept making it all about herself. She wasn’t even apologetic just defensive. She has a God complex and thinks she this IVF guru. I’d say she’s disgusted someone pulled her up.I watched the stories and really admire the person who messaged her.

Awful but not surprising that she showed no empathy. Did she literally just tell you no-one rkse minded?I thought I replied but didn’t - first time poster. I’ve done 12 rounds of ivf and had 4 miscarriages and we’re starting another round as we want to be parents so badly. All the psychological books and manifesting and thinking as if I’m pregnant will not make this work. I did. It lose my babies because I didn’t want them enough. I messaged Denise twice now about the manifesting talk and how it is toxic. I asked her to use her platform to share that not everyone has the ending the dream of and that there is no blame for this and no reason. She told me I am the o lay other negative comment she got to that lady. She said loads of women called their child Beth as an ode to her and her support. She’s a glory hunter. I remember watching the ivf documentary and she was so rude the nurse was talking to her and she was doing Snapchat so so rude.

I'm so sorry she made you feel like that. I'm glad your consultant made more sense and had more compassion. Luck with infertility is nothing more than getting that lucky sperm and lucky egg. I am so so hoping it happens for you. My friends just had their miracle after 12 years of trying. They had multiple rounds of ivf, eventually moving to egg donation and surrogacy. Positive attitude didn't work miracles but an absolute refusal to give up did in the end. XxxYes she told me to unfollow and focus on things that help me. She said apart from the lady she shared yesterday she never had any negative feedback. I appealed that she would consider her platform and use it to educate what helps to say to people - she’s so deaf though and fixated on herself that she won’t. I realise that Denise is only interested in anything that brings her customers, followers and glory. She did the sile seoige podcast to share how wonderful she is not to share what the reality of infertiltiy is. It’s gross I actually rang my consultant to ask should I do more visualisations and if that is why I still have no kids - thankfully he’s very understanding and spoke so nicely to me.
“She said loads of women called their child Beth as an ode to her and her support.” How bleeping self absorbed is this woman? IVF is down to science and luck as previous posters have said and she’s no more an authority on the subject than a fruit fly. Trained Fertility consultants can’t tell you why some IVF cycles work and some don’t, why people miscarry repeatedly, or why some people no matter how much treatment they have will never ever have children. A lot of people fully believe they’re pregnant every single month and are devastated every single month when their period shows up so she’s talking utter BS. She’s an authority on her own fertility journey and that’s it!. Making other woman feel like tit with her toxic positivity makes me livid. Yes we did want it badly enough, we did do everything in our power to make a dream a reality but it didn’t work out. It certainly wasn’t for lack of trying or desire and the absolute audacity of her to publicly say it was. That’s like saying people die of cancer and other diseases cos they didn’t fight to live hard enough. What an arrogant, ignorant A-hole!!!.I thought I replied but didn’t - first time poster.

God no you’re absolutely no on your own in that feeling. You already feel like you’re a tit person and don’t deserve it because you can’t do what seems to be so easy for other people. But you’re not, you’re just one of many who are struggling. People who preach that positivity shite have never been through years and years of treatments and heartbreak so they shouldn’t be spouting their opinions all over social media. I know only too well how hard 8 years has been as I’m on 11 but have stopped all treatments because I mentally couldn’t handle another broken heart.I’m 8 years into TTC 5 rounds of IVF the whole process is difficult beyond words - mentally and physically. It’s hard to be positive when all you’ve ever seen at the end of the horrible IVF road is heartbreak, frustration and sadness. I dreaded when I first watched her announcement that she was banging on about she got pregnant because she had so much gratitude for her life. I knew it would end up in people sending me the link so you automatically feel well I must have such misfortune cause I’m a tit person. Why can’t I just be grateful with what I have instead of wanting a baby so bad - that’s why it’s not working. You feel like people will listen to that and then judge you. So glad to see I wasn’t on my own feeling like that.
Sorry to hear this ..it’s such a tough decision to make ..we have two more embryos then will probably have to make that call. That’s exactly it it takes such a mental toll . I’m a totally different person when doing IVF versus when I’m not it just takes me to such a bad place . Every pregnancy/birth announcement is crushing. I get so annoyed when new mums complain although I know it’s tough, I’d do anything to have that complaint rather then the loneliness , disappointment and frustration at another failed round. I have to listen to people who know our situation complain about hard it is being a new mum“She said loads of women called their child Beth as an ode to her and her support.” How bleeping self absorbed is this woman?
