H and I were planning on trying for a baby this year, but then we discovered I had grave's decease and 9 days ago, I had the radi treatment.

Does anyone have any advice on how long it's 'safe' before trying to conceive? I have been told different periods of time by different specialists...3 months, 8 months and even 12 months!!!!! :roll:

how long did you wait until ttc??? (anyone who has been in or is in my situation??!)

thanks
sf xx :d
