Starting 2ww once again! Who's with me?

[alicepol]

Looks like another 2ww for me, anyone else just Starting? I'm only 2DPO so still 12 days to get through!

Age - 25
TTC #2
Cycle 5
CD 16 on a 27 day cycle (usually)
Only 2 DPO
AF due 25th July

I done one yesterday as I gave blood so wanted to check before I went and it was a BFN. So gonna wait until Sunday I think 12 dpo to do another. Getting less and less confident!

Thanks halfblood. I think I’m gonna get some of those seven seas trying for a baby pills which have B6 in plus the vitD folic acid etc. Only £5.50 for a month and people keep telling me they got pregnant straight away after starting them.

It’s not the not being pregnant this month that bothers me though, it’s only really our second proper cycle. It’s the thought that something might stop me getting pregnant but it still being an unknown.

Will give it till the end of the year and see what’s what.

Looking at the positive, I can book the 1 month hot yoga course I’ve been wanting to do and lose a bit of the fat I’ve acquired recently in the next 4 weeks.

Im jealous @basin that actually sounds fun! Might have to have a Google Haha!

@basinhaircut check boots before you buy them - a lot of their vitamins are on a 3 for 2 at the minute so you might get a better deal.

@alicepol I’ve got a good feeling for you, 🤞it’s your month!

I really hope so! My boobs don't hurt as much today and I've some thick creamy cm. Don't really know what it means (took a picture to put on a fb ttc page) but won't put it on here to gross you all out 😂

Thanks halfblood yeah they were 3 for 2 in Boots. Only got 1 pack though in case they don’t agree with me.

@alicepol 👀👀👀 any news??🤞

No news here yet. Boobs are still hurting but not as much. Took an IC yesterday morning which was BFN. Not due on til Friday.
Had some potentially very bad news with health issues with hubby so been a by distracted

Oh no I hope you’re both ok. How worrying. Sending hugs

Hope everything’s is ok alice

Thanks guys. How are you both getting on?

It's looking like I'm out this month and depending on how things go with DH mught be completely out with any chance on DC #2

Yep CD1 here we come again a day early just to annoy me more!
Will be concerntrating on DH now so no more trying for a while

Good luck with your pregnancies and every one else on their next cycles! Baby dust to all!

Sorry to hear she arrived Alice, and it sounds like you've got a lot on your plate right now. All the best for the future and I hope everything turns out ok with your DH xxx

So sorry @alicepol. Best wishes to you and your dh, and remember we’re all here if you need somewhere to offload xxx

Oh alice big hugs. Take care x

So sorry @alicepol and hope all is ok with DH, thoughts with you both x

Thanks everyone.
DH is having surgery next week. Looking like testicular cancer (wont know how bad until after) so they are taking the 1 testicle out. No idea how that and possible chemo will do to our chances of ever having our #2.
Obviously not the thing I'm worrying about at the moment but wondering if that has had something to do with why we haven't managed to concieve yet.

Hope the pregnancies are going okay!?

Oh no alice that’s awful.

Fingers crossed for your DH

Oh @alicepol I never imagined it was something as bad as that! What a fucking horrible thing to be dealing with. Your poor DH. And poor you, you must be out of your mind with worry!

Will they give him the option of freezing sperm for future use? Is it something you could afford to do if it’s not available on the NHS (even though it bloody well should be)

Thinking of you x

Not going to lie I have no idea! I briefly looked at it and it's saying some areas do it on the nhs and some do. If not it cab be up to £400 to freeze them and £300 a year to store.
They haven't said anything about fertility from the surgery but I've researched and it may possibly lower the chances but he will still has 1 testicle so it's not impossible. It's just if he has to have treatment afterward which could effect it.
Just hoping for the best but preparing for the worst. Hoping it's only in the testicle and having it removed is all that needs to be done!

@alicepol god I'm so sorry to hear you and your family are going through this!

I remember when DH was diagnosed with leukaemia 4 years ago they never offered him to freeze his sperm, and it transpired later that they should have and lots of men on his particular treatment are offered it before they started. Basically it's a relatively new treatment so the effects on fertility haven't been tested yet. His doc didn't think there was a need to freeze sperm, but other docs do. Thankfully it hasn't cause us issues in the end.

Anyway, my point is, it's definitely worth asking even if they've never mentioned it, and considering DH was eligible for it on the NHS for a drug with unknown fertility effects, I would imagine for something related to the sexual organs they would be eligible.

Xx

@alicepol so sorry to hear about your DH and thinking of you with his surgery this week x

Is anyone else experiencing 2ww symptoms, I feel nauseous in the morning and bloated with big boobs! I'm due on Thursday but am getting weirdly superstitious about testing early...anyone else like that?

@alicepol how are you? Hope your husband surgery went ok and he’s recovering well.

@basinhaircut any news?

Hey @halfbloodprincess he's recovered well and fast, been 2 weeks now and he's pretty much back to normal just less 1 nut 😂 we haven't heard any news on the results of the biopsy yet but his CT scan came back clear so if it was malignant then at least it hasn't spread!

How are you getting on @halfbloodprincess?
