Early Signs & Advice

Colleen7777

Good Evening Ladies- Congrats to all of you!!

My husband and I are TTC baby #3.  I was wondering for those of you that have been charting, TTC and were successful with the BFP; what are the early signs or symptoms that you have experienced right away? In addition, any advice you can give to help achieve BFP??  Did anyone achieve on their first or second month trying? I have had 2 successful pregnancies my children are (11 & 7 - both unplanned) so it has been awhile!

Thanks

I noticed one incident of spotting 7 dpo that I believe was implantation bleeding.  I also had creamy CM which I never had in any other cycle.  Around the time AF was due, I began experiencing tender breasts which, again, I never had in any other cycle.  DH and I were successful during our first cycle trying.  I don't have much advice since this was the only time we tried.  I have heard that taking Mucinex (plain only) can help with increasing fertile CM.  If you google it, you will find some helpful pointers with the Mucinex.  HTH!

My symptoms are all in my chart linked in my siggy (BFP chart).  Take a look if you'd like! 

GL to you!

thank you for the advice. I am so happy for you & your DH success!  That is awesome; the next 5 days I will be busy.  Hopefully I will give some give news in just a few weeks!  fingers crossed!!

I will definately look up the mucinex, that i was not aware.  Did you use it too? Please keep me updated on your pregnancy

There is nothing "special" you can do to become pregnant right away.  If there was I would have done that a year ago.

Here's my story... I took my last active birth control pill August 7th.  I was traveling for work in August... In september I had egg white cervical mucus on the 22nd and we went at it like bunnies (I was not tracking CM, i just noticed it was there), 18 dpo (day of expected AF), I tested with a clear blue easy digital test and got "pregnant" in the window. 

Early symptoms were gas, heavy full feeling in my breasts, changes in bowel movements/constipation, sleepiness, a couple zits on my chin (NEVER HAPPENS TO ME!!), and when I laid on the floor my stomach felt different in the uterus area (I just happened to notice while laying on the floor at work, i work in a daycare as a substitute).

 

Good luck!
