1st Trimester

Did anyone else find out at an inopportune time?

I just got my BFP this past Saturday and I had to leave for a business trip to Mexico the next day... I'll be here until Friday. Talk about anxiety!  I'm taking prenatals and trying to take every precaution possible on this trip, but it's just hard being away from home right after getting news like that.

Did anyone else get their BFP at an inopportune time?

  • We'll mine is on the flip end. With delivery. We were really shooting for early June but said whatever happens happens the first month and sure enough bfp! We are super excited of course but I'm a teacher and this is my first year at a new school so it's king of awkward to not finish out the year.
  • Us too. We are happy and excited and we REALLY didn't think it would happen so quickly. The thing is we apparently conceived in mid July and my insurance kicked in Aug 1st. The health insurance is fine because they can't consider pregnancy a pre-exsisting condition but I signed up for short term disability (knowing we were going to seriously start TTC) and THEY can deny coverage if I conceived prior to Aug 1st. I am hoping that they will not make a huge fuss out of a couple of weeks but I am worried they might. So yes, you can say we found out at an inopportune time. Either way, what happens happens and we will love our little munchkin when he/she comes, we might just have to scrounge some pennies while I am on maternity leave.

  • I guess I'm in the same boat with you guys with being super fertile then! We weren't expecting it to happen right away either. I'm going to have to pinch pennies on maternity leave too, but we'll survive.

  • I got a BFP last Thursday. I'm getting married on Saturday. Nervous, scared, overwhelmed but starting to get excited. Timing is awful... but is there ever a right time? 6 weeks today.

  • I just changed jobs too and asked the same questions about coverage to my disability rep. They told me as long as I don't go to the dr and get diagnosed as pregnant before my coverage starts then I'm good. Might look into it. Cause I'm in the same boat. Conceived mid august and coverage started September 1.
  • We found out the thursday a week before our wedding as well! I was only a little over 4 weeks when we found out and 5.5 weeks for the wedding day (bloated and somewhat nauseous already which was fantastic) and we were not expecting it at all! I track and everything and I ended up ovulating a day earlier and somehow a sperm survived 4 days (on a DRY day) to make it up there. Plus we are leaving our seasonal job in 1 month, moving to another state, and trying to start a new business we had to move back the start up date for due to peanut. So yeah a little bit of inconvenience but worth it for peanut!!

  • Yep! We decided to stop BC in may and nothin was really happening so i just assumed it would take me a while to get pregnant which at the time was no biggie. My husband and i talked about it and we decided for me to quit my job because i wanted to go back to school. Plus i had just bought a new horse on august 1st. My last day at work was august 9th. I found out i was 4 weeks preg on august 7th. And it was just funny because the day before i found out i told my hubby i want yo go back on BC lol. Then surprise! But it all worked out :) i am almost 12 weeks and we couldnt be more happy :)
  • I found out the week before my Disney vacation! So, we still went but I was just limited to what I could do/ride. It was totally fine, and skipping rides is worth it for this baby since we have been trying a while, but as a joke we bought a plush Mickey for the baby so one day I can be like "And this is the reason why mommy couldn't go on any rides!" :P
