Infertility

FET Tomorrow

I'm excited, nervous and completely scared!  This may well be the end of my TTC journey if this frosty doesn't stick.  I have 2IF due to the fact that chemo left DH infertile.  I don't know that we'll be able to afford another fresh round.  I'm just praying this one works out.  If you can spare some positive vibes, good thoughts or prayers to whatever god you worship I would be thankful!

    Everything crossed for you! 2IF is a special pain in the arse.
    ETA: I just noticed that we had our FETs on the same day.

    Will you test at home? If so, when will you start? 

    I ordered my tests carefully so that they would arrive tomorrow afternoon. It is so hard to behave.
  • Good luck to you. Sending good thoughts your way.
  • Thanks ladies!

    @BostonGayGal‌ - I will definitely be testing at home - I'm too obsessive to wait until my beta draw on Friday! :\">

    I will try to hold out until Wednesday but will probably start Tuesday at 5dp5dt!
  • Pookster1020! I took my first test this morning as I got my last two positives on 4dp5dt, but I have 6 tests so I'll do two tests a day until my blood draw on Friday if that is what it takes. I'm not having great feelings about this transfer though. We shall see.
  • Last time I didn't get a positive until 6dp5dt so I would be surprised to see anything tomorrow.  I will be testing twice a day as well - just to torture myself a little more!  I have zero symptoms so I'm not too hopeful for this cycle either.  Here's hoping we're both wrong! 

    I'll be looking for updates from you!
  • FXed for you! My DH also had chemo, haven't gone back to get his sperm tested yet. I'm hoping there's still plenty left! We have a check up tomorrow with his oncologists to make sure nothing spread!
    28 yo, married this past July. DH is 29 yo and a 2 time cancer survivor. TTC for 2 months now

  • @Shirley712 - Good luck to you!  My DH is older than yours which from what I understand is definitely a factor.  We were also told that it can take up to two years for it to return to normal levels.  He finished chemo just over a year ago so will be retested again but I'm not getting any younger and didn't want to wait
