ttc when someone you love has Cancer
Hi everyone I'm not really sure why I'm writing this, I found out yesterday someone very close to me has cancer again😪 Has anyone ttc when this has happened, was there anything that helped you to cope, to feel positive? I want more than anything to conceive a healthy baby and for my loved one to be here long enough to hold our next and last little baby in their arms. Holding onto my faith in God🙏

I'm so sorry - when I was TTC my daughter my father in law was in the process of dying from ALS. For me, trying to conceive was a godsend, it gave me a focus aside from my worry. My husband on the other hand took it very hard and was very stressed out and hard to live with, and refused to actively try, so we ended up not trying, not preventing. He eventually passed away when she was 4 months old and while it was a very hard time period for all of us we did come through it. I hope your family member is able to recover.

im so sorry racey, I havent been through this while ttc but i lost my parents to cancer, it's an evil disease. I truly hope that you are able to see your loved one hold your baby when s/he arrives, as Atomic says use it as a point of focus, something to hold on to through this.

Hi there. I'm just now seeing this, so hoping you're still active on the forums! We are currently TTC and my mother is battling stage 4 cancer. I believe it is one of the major reasons I suddenly wanted a 4th child. We have 3 boys and thought we were done. But the thought of losing my mother sparked something in me; I wanted to grow my family again. I wanted something positive for all of us to focus on. I hope your journey is going well! We are only 1 month in and I'm in the TWW.

Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
