DH and I had been trying to conceive baby #2 since November. After three months of just "seeing what happens" I was greatly discouraged.
After three BFN's I thought I should probably start upping this TTC to the next level. I signed up with Fertility Friend and picked up a BBT Thermometer. The first month was tough. I barely knew what I was doing, wondering if I was taking my temps right. My cycles ranged from 28 days to 33 days....or so I thought. My fourth cycle was nuts. I tested on day 30. BFN. Day 31. BFN. Day 33. BFN. Day 39. Took a blood test at OB office. BFN. Day 40. AF showed up. I suspect that I had a cyst which burst after AF showed. I was in terrible pain and had that same pulling sensation I had months ago when my OB found a cyst. Not sure if that had anything to do with my super long cycle or if it was just stress.
Round #5, I grabbed some Clear Blue Easy OPK's and got a + on both CD 21 and CD 22. I was thrilled! I thought for a few minutes that maybe this was our month. We timed it all right.
On April 27th CD 33-11 DPO (The day I was expected to get AF) I decided to take a Pregnancy Test. I only had digital tests left and was a little nervous because I read that digitals were less sensitive than line tests. I did my thing and left the bathroom. I couldn't get my heart to stop trying to pound out of my chest. I came back two minutes later expecting to see "Not Pregnant". Boy was I surprised to see "Pregnant". I ran into the bedroom and jumped on the bed and whispered into DH's ear "I'm pregnant!" He was so excited. We laid in bed for a minute or two hugging and crying. This was it!!
Here is my chart Positive Pregnancy Chart.
We plan on telling our families this Mother's day. I will be 5 weeks when we tell. Our plan is to have Emily run in wearing this shirt.
