Trying to Get Pregnant

I guess I can make it official now... (BFP)

When I got cramping at 7dpo as I have with both of my other BFPs and never at any other time that I can remember, I admit that I was hopeful about this cycle but also tried to convince myself that I had willed those cramps to come. Yesterday at 9dpo I POAS just for fun since I had ordered 50 Wondfos coming off of my m/c so I knew when my hcg was back to 0. There was the faintest of faint lines when I got out of the shower, but while were at church I kept telling myself that I had probably looked outside of the time frame and so it didn't count. When we got back home, I couldn't help but take another test, and there was definitely a faint line in the timeframe.

So this morning I tested again, and once again, very faint lines on the Wondfos. I haven't tested with the FRERs I have yet because I'm only 10dpo and don't want to see a BFN on those. I'll probably use one tomorrow, though, to confirm. But a line is a line, so I figured it was time to post this before someone looked at my chart and saw the positive tests.

This was our first TTCAL cycle. I feel incredibly lucky for it to have worked so quickly, but obviously also very cautious that this will end in another m/c.

What we did: I temped and used CBEFM.

Symptoms: Cramping at 7dpo. As I mentioned, I had that with both other BFPs I've had and otherwise never that I can remember.

Testing: I really wanted to hold off, but I couldn't resist yesterday morning and I have a million Wondfos, so I went ahead.

How I told DH: I haven't yet! With my other BFPs I went out and showed him the stick, but for some reason with this one I'm holding off. I'll probably tell him at some point today, although I don't think I'll do anything special.

Thanks to you all for your support while I've been here, especially after my m/c. I hope to see you soon on the Feb board and not back here!!
