I'm knocked up! And not in January, silly Cherri22. Tested yesterday morning with a dollar store test and there was a faint line, then tested with a digital and it said:

DH and I are so excited! If you check out my chart, it wasn't the nicest looking chart in the world! I kinda knew it was coming even though my chart sucked.. I did an experiment with opks over the past few days, and here were the results:

Don't mind the dates, I know they are totally wrong just realized that as I was taking pictures lol! But you can see the line gradually got darker and darker. Interesting!
My EDD is Sept 2nd! And as far as symptoms, I've been very gasy, sore boobs, cramping very badly, they've hurt a lot! and my nose won't stop running for the life of me. My skin has cleared up beautifully! I hope this is a sign of no pregnancy acne. Also I can't be in a moving vehicle without getting nauseous. That is my least favorite symptom.
Things I did different: I used opks this cycle to help me figure my true ovulation date! That was about all. I had intentions of green tea and pom, but that never panned out.
Thank you so much ladies, I will still be lurking! Please come join me in 1st Tri soon!

it's that in each life some rain falls but you also get some sun.
