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.

This thread has mild restrictions - thread is primarily BFP announcements but doesn't allow for direct questions or lengthy/personalized congrats in the comments. Use the "Love It" button or "congrats!", "H&H 9 months!", "I was hoping this was your month!" and other short & sweet notes.

Regular board rules apply - this is not the place to ask if you are pregnant based off your symptoms or for second opinions on your tests. We do invite you to contribute in the daily TWW and WTO threads and discussions. This community gives back tenfold what you put into it!

When you see somebody who has possibly violated a guideline of this thread, please quote the section of these guidelines and include a callout to the poster, but keep snark to a minimum. If you have a post called out, please edit your offending post to add a note that you've been made aware of the rule and will keep it in mind in the future (if you are being asked to change wording due to unintentionally offensive phrasing, please remove that part of your post with a note of "EDIT: Removed offensive phrasing"). Remember: this thread is not a tribunal. Continued arguments and defenses about a post have no place here and are considered off-topic. If you would like to make an argument for or against a rule, please create or update a META thread to discuss.

Tentatively posting in this thread as it’s been a rough road, but feeling somewhat optimistic after good beta results.

CD/DPO of first BFP?
24/9, BFP on Easter.

How many months/cycles had you been TTGP?
Sort of hard to answer since *TW we had 3 losses since we started TTC *end TW* but we started trying 7 months ago

What did your chart look like?
Didn't temp so nothing to see really.

What were you doing TGKU?
Timed sex, OPK, PNV, CoQ10

How was your timing?
-4, -2, -1

What symptoms did you have, if any (CS & CD breakdowns welcome)?
No real symptoms in the TWW other than CP being high again a few days after O and crazy dreams starting a couple days before my BFP.

How are you going to/did you tell your partner?
It’s kind of anti-climactic after everything we’ve been through, so I just told him right after testing.

Anything else to add?
I just want to thank my TTCAL ladies for everything these past 5 months. You are all an incredibly strong group of women and there’s no way I could have gotten through this without you guys. Your ability to give support to others even when you’re hurting is incredible, and I’m so grateful to have “met” you all. I’m rooting so hard for all of you to get your rainbows, (and of course also hoping everyone here gets take home babies) and I’ll be lurking and cheering you on from afar. It’s bittersweet to say goodbye as I will miss you and I wish you were all coming with me. Hopefully I won’t have reason to be back here though. I’m glad we have the Chit Chat board now so that I can still keep in touch with everyone.
