...because I got to see two lovely pink lines this morning after 8 cycles/9 months. I'll at least be a mommy-to-be on Sunday!
I'm 10dpo, so it's still early, and I'm cautious. I backed up this morning's positive IC test with another Answer brand test as well as a CBE digi.
What we did this month: nothing too different. I drank green tea from CD1 - O day (but I've always done that) and tried EPO, but fell off that wagon after a few days. I think that, at least for us, it came down to the right timing. My cycles have been crazy the last few months, so we aimed for EOD sex and I kept up with OPKs this month, too.
Symptoms: The only unusual thing for me was the frequency in which I had to pee! I'd seriously drink half a glass of water, and I'd be running to the bathroom. Other than that - a few AF-like cramps and some bloating, all signs that I would've attributed to AF anyway.
EDD: 1.13.2012 (the day before my baby nephew's birthday!)
I haven't been around much lately on here as I needed a bit of a Bump break after the last doozy of a cycle. However, I'm so thankful for all of the advice, laughs, and information I've gleaned since joining last August. A big thanks to anyone who ever responded to a crazy question of mine! Good luck to all, and I hope to see you on First Tri soon!
