If you are a
contributing member with a BFP this week, please share your success with us here.

How do you know if you're a contributing member?
1. Ask your heart if you have contributed positively here.
2. Do these people know you? Will they be happy about your pregnancy?
3. Have you offered support to others or have you just blasted your own info out there?
4. Really, if you're a 1/1 or a 2/2, maybe just move on. Even if you have participated daily for one month and offered tons of support. Sometimes the silence is kindest. Those of us who lurk BMBs will see your intro and PM/comment/love tit.
5. Again, take a moment and step away from your excitement and ask your heart if posting would be potentially hurtful.

Re: TTGP Grad Thread w/o 12/18
CD/DPO of first BFP? 26/10. I had a super faint line on a blue dye test but didn't believe it until I got a positive on a FRER and digital on 11dpo, since blue dyes are so notorious for false positives. I also think it's interesting to note that I still haven't been able to turn an easy@home HPT. I'm trying not to read too much into that.
How many months/cycles had you been TTGP? 7 months *TW* with 2 early losses in that time frame and 1 benched cycle following my most recent loss. *end TW* I lurked TTGP during that whole time, but started actively participating in August.
What did your chart look like? Chart in spoiler. (It's huge, sorry!)
What were you doing TGKU? Charting and using OPKs.
How was your timing? -4, -3, -1
What symptoms did you have, if any (CS & CD breakdowns welcome)? I had some weird cramping on 7dpo, I think. It felt almost like it was in the area of my cervix. I'm not sure if that can be attributed to anything though or if it was just my body being weird. On 9dpo I felt some cramping after sex which doesn't typically happen, so that caught me off guard. My breasts started feeling sore around 9 or 10dpo but it doesn't feel too much different from the typical PMS soreness.
How are you going to/did you tell your partner? Nothing too exciting. I showed him the positive digital test right after I took it. With my two previous loss cycles, he never believed the light pink lines on the FRER, so he was much more willing to believe the digital!
Anything else to add? You guys are amazing. Seriously. I'm going to miss you all so much. I've gotten to know a lot of you better than my IRL friends and for that reason I feel like I've made some really lasting friendships. I think it's amazing that you guys are willing and able to support everyone in their TTC journey, whether they're just starting out or have been here for years. I wish I hadn't waited until August to start participating here! I also wanted to give a shout out to the ladies on the TTCAL thread. You've all been through so much and I was so thankful to have a group of people who could give support after everyone's losses. It meant the world to me to have a place where we could all talk openly about our feelings and know that we could find support no matter what type of loss we had experienced.
Thank you to everyone for all the support you've provided over the past couple of months. I wish I could find better words to say it because a simple "thank you" doesn't really cut it. You all are seriously the best and I'm constantly thinking about you all and hoping that some way or another, you get your take home babies. I'll be stalking you all like crazy!
