BFP :-)
So I posted a couple weeks ago about some weird symptoms I was having. I am now pretty sure that that was ovulation. We BD'd a few times and then my temp rose for sure. I have been holding off testing for awhile (today is 16dpo if I am correct and CD48), but tonight an old friend announced she was PG and I was like maybe that's a sign that tonight is the night I should test. I got two dark postives on the FRER and then a postive on the EPT digital. Also, since it's been a source of discussion lately I took two Wondofos that came with my OPKs that I ordered about 8 weeks ago and they were positive. They were the ones with the pink handle.
I hope this doesn't look like a drive by. This was my first (albeit long) cycle off the pill, but I know I would not have humped it out those days if I had not lurked on this board for so long bc I really just felt bloated and gross. I can't really say what we did differently but I was trying to drink more water, we BD ~O-2 and O-1, and then a few times in the prior week but I don't remember exactly which days.
Symptoms:
AF like cramps, like bad enough that they woke my up last night
Sore, erect nipples
I lost a couple pounds despite eating like a pig (I am on WW, but obv stopping now). Not sure if this is a symptom but it seemed a little fishy to me.
I feel slightly wet down there.
Anyways, I just wanted to thank you all again from the bottom of my heart. I hope to see you all on 1st Tri very soon.
