I got a BFP this afternoon! My birthday was last week so this makes a great belated B-day present.
I know people usually post tips but I don't really have any. I'm not naive enough to think that anything that I did isn't something you ladies aren't already doing. The only thing that I can offer is for those TTC #2. Don't assume that things will be like they were before. I've been so down and disheartened for the past week because I didn't get a BFP earlier like I did with DS.
I would like to thank all of you for your helpful advice and encouraging words. I do have one further question though...I am very excited and ready to tell everyone except for one person. My cousin and I have been talking about getting pregnant together since she got engaged. She has been trying since Oct 2009. She knows that I got pregnant with DS on cycle #1 and knows that we started trying this cycle for this child. I feel like this will be an extra slap in her face. How the heck do I tell her?
Thank you and I hope that I will see you all soon on the tri boards!
Re: A belated birthday present!
Woohoo! Congrats!
In regards to your cousin, just be sensitive, as I'm sure you will be. She will probably be upset about it, but there is nothing you can do. Just continue to encourage and support her!

Congrats! What a great birthday present!
I think you should just be honest with your cousin, and share the same encouraging words that you found helpful here. It will probably be hard for her at first, but I would bet in the end she will just be happy for you.
Congrants! There is no better b-day present
