@Sparty18 Congratulations sweetheart! I am so thrilled for you. You advocated so well for yourself during all of that and I know that your kid is blessed to have a mama like you It's so cute that you gies hugged and cried together. I'll bet you were damn glad to cancel that other RE appointment Have a happy and healthy 9 months!
@literatureandink Congrats!! I'm so glad that nothing needed to go beyond one RE appointment. Now you can rest up from all of that HIO exhaustion.
People think we become mothers when we give birth but the truth is we become mothers the moment we start calling our babies to us in our thoughts, dreams and prayers. Some paths are short and some are so long that you can easily forget where you were headed.

TTC #1 since 2011. Tried for 5 years before we knew there was a one year rule. Diag w/MS 2016; w/PCOS & IF 2017 New RE 2018; PCOS diagnosis taken away, IF due to ovary adhesions, but prev. RE insists PCOS IF
IUI IUI #1 July 2017 w/100mg Clo+trigger; BFN; benched w/big cysts IUI #2 October 2017 w/50mg Clo+trigger; BFN; benched w/big cysts IUI #3 February 2018 w/5mg Femara+trigger; low P BFP February; mc March; Subclinical hypothyroid started Levothyroxine IUI #4 March 2018 w/7.5mg Femara+trigger; BFN Medicated cycle & TI April 2018 w/7.5mg Femara+trigger; BFN Tried several cycles on our own; all BFN
What were you doing TGKU? OPKs, temping, fertility tea. Tried emerita pro-gest cream from 1 dpo to 4 dpo. Stopped using it bc I didn't see a change in my temps.
How was your timing? - 3,-1,0
What symptoms did you have, if any (CS & CD breakdowns welcome)? Nothing aside from Tmi horrible gas which I just thought was from the chili I ate at a pumpkin patch. These past few days I've been extremely tired (like I need a nap right now can't keep my eyes open) which I also thought was from baby sitting.
How are you going to/did you tell your partner? He works until 5 so I'm not sure yet. Probably just tell him he has to clean the litter box for a while.
Anything else to add? I was really reluctant to test bc that means I will have to leave this awesome supportive group. I will miss this and Im keeping my fingerd crossed to see you ladies in the bmb soon.

What did your chart look like? What were you doing TGKU? CM, CP, BBT, CoQ10, B6, PNV, acupuncture
How was your timing? -3, -1 (I think I O’d overnight and we did it late evening -1).
What symptoms did you have, if any (CS & CD breakdowns welcome)? I highly suspected implantation cramps 5-6 DPO, then my chart went triphasic for the first time ever so that gave me more suspicion. Had some nausea the past 3 days but not sure if that’s related bc I was also having some GI upset in general. Increased creamy CM the past few days. Some light cramping today. I feel like I kind of knew but also my mind has played tricks on me other cycles so I didn’t want to fall into that trap!
How are you going to/did you tell your partner? I texted him! Haha! He is the type that NEEDS to know things immediately so I knew he’d want to know even though he wasn’t home.
Anything else to add? Checking the TTGP board everyday has been so incredibly helpful and supportive during this journey. Thank you all so much for being here. Sending positive thoughts to everyone!

Hi @lilyan1522 I'm not sure if you were ever a reg on this board, but it looks like you just came to TTGP a couple of cycles ago. We are really glad that you are pregnant, but I think in this instance, your announcement is hurtful and silence is really kindest.
For reference from the OP:
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.
