I'm still trying to believe it, but all the sex has finally worked! I'm pregnant!
Cycle/Month: 8CD/DPO: 40/13 EDD: August 8th, 2015What We Did: Temping, OPKs, and sex every 2 or 3 days (hit -4 and -1).Symptoms: A bunch, but I suspect some are all in my head. Sore boobs, cramps, nausea. Also, really really thirsty, which I didn't even realize was a pregnancy symptom until I experienced it and looked it up here on the Bump. Also (possibly related to the thirst), having to pee every 30 minutes.How I told DH and others: On Wednesday, my temp shot up to its highest point since I began temping in June, so I took a test even though I hadn't planned to until AF was late. I got a squinter on a wondfo and drove myself nuts looking at it all day trying to decide if it was or it wasn't. When DH got home from work, I think I really scared him because I guess I stared at him very intensely and said, "I need to tell you something....(long pause)...I think I am pregnant." I took a FRER (and another Wondfo) on Thanksgiving morning to confirm. The timing was a little awkward because Thanksgiving AM, I flew to my sister's (without my husband) to help her care for her newborn for a week. My mom and I overlapped our visits by a few days so we could all spend Thanksgiving together, so I got to tell my mom and sister in person right away even though we all live in different states and rarely are all together. And now I get a week of hands-on instruction with a newborn. But I hate that DH and I got barely an hour together between BFP and me having to go to the airport, so we haven't been able to celebrate or even talk about it much.The Mushy Stuff: Ladies, thanks for the education! When I came here, I had no clue what I was doing. I lurked much more than I posted, but I really appreciate all of the honest and helpful answers (even when I wasn't the one asking the questions). Thank you so much, and I hope to see everybody in August 15.
