TTGP grad announcement w/o 1/9

anniemarie887 · January 2023

If you are a contributing member who has been active here for a full 3 months with a BFP this week, CONGRATULATIONS! 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.

wanderlustsoul · January 2023

CD/DPO of first BFP? I got a little shadow at 7DPO but didn’t believe it. Morning of 8DPO was nothing identifiable but the night of 8DPO was clear. I saw the line and immediately started sobbing. It’s been getting darker every day.

How many months/cycles had you been TTC? 8 but have had 2 losses.

How long have you been an active participant on the TTGP board? (minimum: 3 full months) Sept 22-Jan 23

What did your chart look like? Didn’t chart.

What were you doing TGKU? OPKs, monitoring, HIO, CM

How was your timing? What symptoms did you have, if any? (CS & CD breakdowns welcome) We got O-4, O-1, and O. No real symptoms that I could tell as I was just suffering terribly from the flu. I guess some insomnia and back pain. Now I’m super emotional and burst into tears randomly. Sorry blood work lab lady this morning. 😅

How are you going to/did you tell your partner? After this being the 3rd time I tell him I’m pregnant in such few months, I have no creativity. I told him “I think I might be pregnant” at night and then the next morning after testing “definitely pregnant” and showed him the line. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Anything else to add? I am so, so nervous. This is it for us. Good or otherwise. I am hoping third time is the charm.

I am crossing it all for all of you and I have loved being a part of this board. Thank you for being so wonderful. I’ll be lurking and stalking all of you and cheering you on!

Hello Its me again - Hello Adele - Meme Generator

This is the fourth time I’ve attempted to depart from here. I've been sitting on this since last Tuesday, waiting to have all three betas confirm doubling (did the 3rd one yesterday) and good progesterone levels. I am still super early, 4W1D today. Between having the stomach flu ravage our home and my prior losses I am vacillating between calm and anxiety.

CD/DPO of first BFP? 23/9

How many months/cycles had you been TTC? 25 months/no idea how many cycles at this point

How long have you been an active participant on the TTGP board? (minimum: 3 full months) Feb 2021 to now, with a little breaks for being benched.

What did your chart look like?

What were you doing TGKU? well, not to be crass, but I feel like my uterus got a gut renovation last year between the two D&Cs, then the hysteroscopy removing retained tissue, and two rounds of insane antibiotics for endometritis. since working with the RE and being cleared in Nov I was taking baby aspirin, extra folic acid, and progesterone after ovulation in addition to regular prenatal vitamins. Also, my regular chiropractor and acupuncture visits.

How was your timing? What symptoms did you have, if any? (CS & CD breakdowns welcome) well starting roughly CD4 I had the stomach flu, so that was not fun. I took a test on 1/1 at 7DPO knowing that was probably too early, but also that I was going to be drinking. Booze did not sit well with me at all, but I wasn’t sure if that was recovering from the flu or what. The other times I’ve been pregnant I have an aversion to alcohol leading up to testing positive. I also was having some crazy insomnia, I posted on here at like 1am last week for my update, wound up not testing until lunch time that day and being like are my eyes playing tricks on me? Lastly, timing, the weekend of Christmas we were busy. -3, -2, -1, O.

How are you going to/did you tell your partner? it’s so anticlimactic now, MH was getting over the stomach flu and I was like, hi I think I have something to put a smile on your face and waved a pee stick at him.

Anything else to add? my RE is happy with my numbers, albeit as she says “they’re early”. Waiting to see if she wants more betas done. I will go in for a first appt on 1/26 which will be 6w4d.

9DPO
HCG - 22
Progesterone - 13.6

11DPO
HCG - 69
Progesterone - 19.5

14 DPO
HCG - 236
Progesterone - 23.4

We’ve told no one this time (well except @acleverusername did get a holy sh*t is this what I think it is text from me) and fully intend to keep this under wraps for as long as possible. I’ve got some new work stress this week that I’m trying to take in stride and not allow to consume me. But also, it will hopefully keep me busy.

I am hoping for babies for everyone here so hard. The last year has been excruciating for me and I don’t know what I would’ve done without this little corner of the internet. Thank you for listening and advice. I’ll be lurking and cheering you all on so hard.
