Cautiously optomistic

shouldbworkinshouldbworkin
in TTC after 35

Got a faint BFP this am.  Big Smile  I don't think I've ever tested this early (10 DPO), so I am just hoping and praying this is the real deal and it sticks.  I'm excited, but not ready to toot my horn too loud just yet.  Hopefully I will be able to after a 6.5 week u/s.  So, for now, it looks like we're adding another December bday to the family (DH is a December baby too).  Yay! 

In case anyone is interested, things I did different this cycle:  used an OPK and had sex the night the OPK came back + (tested that mid-AM).  Stayed in bed after sex vs. getting up and getting on with my day (with 2 kids in the house, we rarely have energy for that sort of thing in the evening LOL).  Sounds crazy, but that is what I did with #1 and #2 and hadn't done it yet wiht TTC #3.  Also been taking extra folic acid this cycle, in addition to my PNV. 

I'd really like to think that this board is turning to magic and I caught some of it this cycle.  ;-)  GL to all on the journey, I hope yours is short. 

DS1 age 7, DD age 5 and DS2 born 4/3/12

    Congratulations!
    I give up trying to get a ticker.  I have a DD that is 2.5 years old and is awesome.  Maybe I'll add a quote to distinguish myself.  Hmmm.  How about...
