Congrats to any TTGP grads this week, our fingers are crossed!

Re: TTGP Weekly Grad Thread - Nov 21st
CD/DPO of first BFP? 23/9 - very faint line but it’s definitely there on several tests!
How many months/cycles had you been TTGP? 7 months/7 cycles
What did your chart look like? It looks like all of my other charts, no real difference (yet anyways).
What were you doing TGKU? Charting temps&cm, OPKs, PNV, Mucinex during FW (mainly because I was sick but it could have helped cm) and HIO.
How was your timing? -2, Ox2. Way less than previous cycles!
What symptoms did you have, if any (CS & CD breakdowns welcome)?
On 2dpo and 3dpo I had sore nipples which I’ve never had previously so I thought it might be worth noting. On 6dpo, I has frequent urination all day. Then yesterday on 8dpo I woke up nauseous but that only lasted for a few minutes and I was fine.
How are you going to/did you tell your partner?
I bought a onesie that says “Guess What?” when we first started trying. I tested this morning before he woke up, not expecting anything. When I saw the line I took several more tests and he woke up during that time. He told me he was going to take a shower so that was my cue to get things set up. So while he was showering, I tidied up the living room, put the onesie on the coffee table and set up the camera. He came out, saw the onesie and asked “is this real?” Then we just hugged and cried and it was the best ever. What a great Thanksgiving.
Anything else to add?
You guys, I can't even believe this is happening!!! It is so surreal. We are so excited and we just can’t stop smiling over here. My husband literally just went for a semen analysis yesterday and I had started blood work on Tuesday. So we're in shock! I want to thank all of you for your support over these last 7 months. I didn’t expect to be here this long but I am so appreciative of you ladies for being there for me along the way. I’m so glad I decided to join this group. I wish nothing but the best for each of you. I’ll miss you all and I will be lurking!

I know most if you don't know me, but I'm a regular from the weekly IF thread and have been for months.
CD/DPO of first BFP? 26/ 14dp IUI
How many months/cycles had you been TTGP? 14/12
What did your chart look like? on mobile, sorry if it's giant
What were you doing TGKU? follistim, ovidrel, IUI #2
How was your timing? -2, IUI on O, 1, 2
What symptoms did you have, if any (CS & CD breakdowns welcome)? Nothing really different than what I usually get with AF. Only difference is that my nipples were more sensitive the last 2 days.
How are you going to/did you tell your partner? He was there when I tested. Dealing with infertility and a year of negatives, I stopped testing without him.
Anything else to add? A big thank you to the women on the IF thread!!! You ladies are amazing. Without all of the help, information, and support from you, I would have given up hope a long time ago. I'll be stalking that thread until the rest of you join me!
CD/DPO of first BFP? 27/11
How many months/cycles had you been TTGP? 3/3
What did your chart look like? Didn't chart but did use FF to track FW
What were you doing TGKU? Tracking ovulation, taking prenatals, DTD
How was your timing? -3, -2, O
What symptoms did you have, if any (CS & CD breakdowns welcome)? I said I was going to wait until today to test or until I missed my period. I just came back from visiting a friend of mine and her dog jumped on me and the smell almost made me throw up. My sense of smell is ridiculous right now.
How are you going to/did you tell your partner? I'm home visiting my parents and he is back at our house in TX so I don't want to tell him until I go home. I have no idea how I'm going to do it.
Anything else to add? Had I never stopped lurking and actually joined in with you wonderful ladies I do not believe this would have happened. Thank you all for your wealth of knowledge. Before I had no idea how to track ovulation or what a fertile week was because with my son it was not planned at all.
*I am very shocked I got a BFP this early because with DS I didn't get one until way after I missed AF. I'm literally shaking right now. Thank you ladies so much and I wish you all the best!! I will still be around.
