2ww post first insemination with donor sperm

[littlekitten8]

Hi all. Quick background. H2B had cancer aged 29. He's been clear 8 years but it had a massive effect on his sperm count. We've tried for a baby for 3 years with no luck. So we finally made the decision to use a sperm donor. Had our first donation yesterday. Today I'm having lots of lower back pain. Is this normal? Anyone else on their 2ww?

Hello im am currently 3dpoiui and having mild cramping, I know that back pain is a normal sign as well, during the tww you will go through a lot of symptoms, some may feel like pms symptoms. ive learned to not symptom spot its not helpful to me anyway. wishing you the best this cycle

 

[littlekitten8]

Thanks hunni. I'm trying not to symptom spot. I'm aware of how unlikely it is to work first time but you can but hope! Best of luck to you xx

 

[ILoveme29]

thank you, yes lets just hope you are one of the lucky ones. it was the second that worked for me but unfortunately mc. im now on my third cycle since that. but everyone is different, when will you be testing?

 

[littlekitten8]

I'm going to be naughty and test Christmas morning in the hopes I might get a faint positive to give H2B as an extra Christmas present. Will be 10dpiui. But if that's negative I will wait til my period comes or cd35 if it doesn't!! You? Xx

I will be testing the day after (the 26th) if AF doesn't show first. I wont test any earlier because the hcg shot stays in my system for more than 10days, don't want to get a pos, then neg that really sucks.

 

[littlekitten8]

Aww good luck!! Fingers crossed we will both get Still got back pain. Feel like I'm gonna get AF even though it's way too early for that!

 

[ILoveme29]

yes I know the feeling, surprisingly not even the progesterone suppositories are bothering me this cycle. and very little symptoms at the moment its so odd for me.
