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. We ask that you only post here if you have been participating meaningfully here for at least three months.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.

Re: TTGP Grad Announcement(s) w/o 7/22
CD/DPO of first BFP? 11dpIUI / 13dp trigger
How many months/cycles had you been TTC? 4 cycles AL.
How long have you been an active participant on the TTGP board? (minimum: 3 full months) May 2018
What did your chart look like? didn't temp this cycle
What were you doing TGKU? 5mg letrozole CD2-7, 5000 hcg trigger, IUI, prometrium
How was your timing? What symptoms did you have, if any? (CS & CD breakdowns welcome) -4,-2, IUI x2.
At 5dpIUI I had immense pain that lasted about 5 minutes on my right lower abdomen, which I believe was the beginning of implantation. My biggest symptom though was lack of CM in the TWW a long with tugging cramps. Now at 12dpIUI I feel like absolute trash - which is great imo!
How are you going to/did you tell your partner? Well he got to see the crazy come out with progression internet cheapies taped to a piece of paper starting at 5dpIUI. When I got one that was significantly darker than the rest at 11dpIUI, he finally started to believe me.
Anything else to add? You ladies will never know how much you have given me over the past year and change... honestly I feel like I know so many of you personally at this point and all I wish for is that all of us have success. I love you all and I will always visualize our group as one giant RHONY cast
