After 16 months TTC, this is it! š
After coming off BC in June last year, because I couldnāt be on the combined pill anymore and the mini pill didnāt agree with me, it wasnāt until August, just before my 27th birthday, that we decided weād start TTC.
I hate the word fiancƩe, but my fiancƩe and I had originally planned to wait until we got married before TTC, but a throw away comment from my GP about not putting off TTC until too late made us realise we were ready for a baby now.
Little did we know it would take 16 months!
We are both healthy, Iām now 28 my fiancĆ©e 31. No medical conditions, donāt drink, donāt smoke.
After 12 months TTC with no luck, We had initial fertility tests which confirmed I was ovulating and sperm analysis was good. Weād been referred for <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">fertility treatment</a> on the NHS but there was a long waiting list to be seen.
This month we started to consider private <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a>. And then this happened!
I honestly thought Iād never see a second line on a pregnancy test! And now Iāve got digital confirmation too š.
Iām about 3w6d today. I really hope this little poppy seed stays safe and healthy š¤š»the full 9 months.
They should be arriving in August 2021, on the 2 year anniversary of us starting this journey. Just before I turn 29.
I know what a rollercoaster TTC can be, and Iām sending baby dust and wishing luck to everybody š§
