Trying to Get Pregnant

Good thing I enjoyed my vacation last week... (BFP)

I thought I pretty much missed my O last cycle because it was 6 days earlier than my last 5 cycles. We did hit O but that's it. I had already counted myself out and was ready to start over next cycle.  We went to the beach last week and I thoroughly enjoyed myself drinking and eating really badly. I've had some crazy heartburn for the last week but it started at 3DPO so I figured it was just from my crappy eating habits the last week or so. I've also been absolutely exhausted this week but I chalked that up to being back on my normal wake up at 4:30am schedule after being on vacation and not having to go to bed or wake up at any particular time. I was so sick of the heartburn, I was going to stop and get some Zantac at the pharmacy because nothin else was working. I figured I should test just in case and was floored when it was positive!

What we did: I charted my temps and monitored CM when I could find some. This was also our first cycle using preseed.  I took PNVs and used OPKs as well

How I told DH: I was in such shock and the line was so faint I called him (he was working in the basement) to come upstairs I had something for him to see. He came up and I was still sitting on the toilet when I showed it to him. I retested with a FRER this morning and the line is super dark. He is out of town for the night/day so I text him a picture of confirmation.

Mushy stuff: I know I'm still a newbie but the support here was amazing.  I found answers to every question I ever had and have learned so much more than I did coming in to this.  Thanks for being supportive of the newbies! 

For those of you that love pee stick pics haha:
