Longest cycle update... BFP!!!!

Mattel · June 2011

I am so excited to be writing this!!! I'm KTFU!! I posted a few days ago about how this is my longest cycle in 8 months and I wasn't charting to know when I O'd. I had been POAS frequently with BFNs. Yesterday morning I POAS and it was a BFN. I looked at it several hours later and I saw the faintest of faint lines... I know it was several hours later, but I use the $ store tests all the time and I've never had anything show up later so it gave me a glimmer of hope. Last night at midnight I tested again on a whim, and I didn't have much hope since my pee was pretty diluted thanks to a few glasses of water at dinner just a couple hours before. I looked after about a minute and it was negative, I checked close to the max 10 minute mark and there was a 2nd line!!! I called DH right into the bathroom and showed him. We hugged and cried for so long. I tested again today, both $ store tests were positive, the digi was positive and the FRER was a very faint positive.

We're both nervous because of the m/c in January and because I'm really sick. I went to the Dr yesterday and found out I have a really bad sinus infection that goes down to the bronchial tubes in my lungs, bronchitis, and strep throat. She asked if I could be pregnant and I told her I took a test and it was negative, but she still gave me an antibiotic considered safe for pregnancy. Good thing! Now I have to work with my endocrinologist and I will be followed by a high risk OB at Children's Hospital because I'm diabetic.

Symptoms: Not a lot so far. Yesterday I was dry heaving in the shower, but I can't say if it was PG related or sickness related. I did notice a lot of creamy discharge a couple days ago at work. That's it so far, no breast tenderness, no nausea, no gas, no bloating.

What I did different: I can't say anything really. We BD EOD plus a couple extra times starting a few days after AF ended until about a week and a half ago. I still took my PNV's and that was really it. This was my second month of a charting break and if I did chart, I would have had a better idea what my body was doing.

EDD: Based on when I think I O'd, March 6 (the day before my 28th birthday). If I go by my LMP, it's February 25, but I didn't O until around CD26, so I don't think that's too accurate. I'll be interested to see what the Dr says.

So ladies, I'm cautiously moving on to March 2012. Please keep me in your T&P's that this is our sticky baby!!!!! Hope to see you all with BFP's soon. XOXO
