Hi ladies. I was on a bump break for the last month, although I did a TON of lurking, both here and my home for the last 9+ months - TTCAL. Kind of like this:
(MMmmmmm....I can't decide if this is cute or creepy. We'll go with cute, ok?)
The bump break was really good. I was able to get a lot of personal things taken care of that were kind of adding up quickly. But I miss my community and am ready to come back and give you all the support you deserve.
While I was on my break, I was so happy to get a BFP at 9DPO (test early, much?). I tracked my progress with pregnancy tests every day, and bw every 48 hours, to see how things were moving along since the most recent BFP I got before this one ended in a CP. All signs pointed to things being off to a great start.
I started to get more excited as the days moved on and I moved past my anticipated "CD1" on FF. (I hope I don't see that again for a really long time

).
So, here I am! 4 weeks and 2 days today. First u/s is scheduled for April 29th. Eek! Hold me close, prettyprettyplease???!!
TTCAL ladies:
I'll do my best to articulate my thanks to you all, but how can I put into words the immense gratitude I have? I've typed this out a few times already and my words seem lacking. You welcomed me into your community and offered me the greatest source of support during my darkest days. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I wish I could give each of you a big, huge, Carlson bear hug IRL. Big ((((hugs)))) to you all.
