First month TTC
My husband and I did genetic testing because my cousin passed away from cystic fibrosis at 21 after having a double lung transplant at 9 years old. We both watched him slowly die over a few years and it was beyond torturous and we could never watch our child go through that. We decided if we were both carriers, we would not have biological children. I tested positive as a cystic fibrosis carrier and he tested negative. My test was done before his because it's expensive so when I tested positive, we were heart broken at the thought of not having our own children. My test took three nail-biting weeks to process and we got the bad news while on our belated honeymoon in Hawaii in August. We returned and my husband went for testing. After two tense weeks, we got results the last week if August and he's not a carrier.
I just ovulated and am officially on my first TWW ever. We are very excited to start our family. This past week, my husband has been telling me goodnight and then rubs my belly and says goodnight to the baby he is convinced is in there :) Thank you for being such a great group of ladies and for supporting everyone here. Good luck and baby dust!
Af is expected 10/2.
