... cause I got my BFP this morning! OMG!!!
Today was my test day according to FF, but I wasn't planning on testing until Saturday because I felt it was too early (11 DPO) since I've been working on lengthening my LPs with B6.
(Sorry if this is TMI) but I sat on the toilet this morning and turned my BBT back on to see my temp as per my usual routine. As soon as I saw the temp jump, I freaked, stopped midstream, found the nearest clean cup and finished in there. I started with a IC and saw the faintest of faint lines, so I decided to bust out my expensive test. OMG! It was positive! I couldn't believe it.
Gave my dog a big kiss and congratulated him on being a big brother, and then went to wake up DH. I apologized for waking him up and told him I had something important to show him. He freaked!! We're both so excited, and pretty scared too.
I want to thank you ladies sincerely from the bottom of my heart. Had I not stumbled upon this site, had you not encouraged me to use FF and charting, I would have been completely in the dark. I would never have known about my short LP and how to fix it. This community is such a blessing.
Things I did differently this cycle:
1) Managed to have sex more than once in our fertile window. This had been a challenge for us in the past.
2) Upped my B6 from 50mg to 100mg per day.
3) Drank 200mg of Robitussin 3 times per day (leading up to O) to improve CM.
Symptoms:
None really. A bit of acne which is unusual for me. I was constipated over the weekend which is also unusual for me (fibre is my friend). A few twinges/cramps too, but nothing alarming. Had I not (knowingly) been in the 2WW wait I wouldn't have even noticed. Oh, and I signed back up for Weight Watchers a few weeks ago. Murphy's Law!
I will stay lurking here for a while if you don't mind. I leave for a work trip to Bangladesh on Saturday (won't that be fun!) so I probably won't get any blood work done until I'm back the following weekend.
YAY! Stick baby, stick!
