TTGP grad announcements w/o Apr 17

maggiemadeit · April 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.

I want all of you to know how much I appreciate you and have enjoyed getting to know you and your stories. I will be lurking. I hope this graduation is a sticky one. The best to each and every one of you.

CD/DPO of first BFP? I got a shadow on 12DPO on a cheapie (CD23/25). 13DPO/CD24 I got a positive FRER and digital.

How many months/cycles had you been TTC? 13 Months, Unknown number of cycles due to irregular cycles

How long have you been an active participant on the TTGP board? (minimum: 3 full months) Since Aug/Sep 2022

What did your chart look like? I did not chart

What were you doing TGKU? OPKs and TI (I had done many things prior, but after being told I likely wouldn't conceive in January I had all but given up. It was definitely a shock and still is.

How was your timing? What symptoms did you have, if any? (CS & CD breakdowns welcome) O-2 and O, Sore breasts and a little bit of naseau. I also had very light brown spotting that I believe was implantation bleeding. luckily, it stopped now. (This was the spotting I mentioned in TWW board on Friday.)

How are you going to/did you tell your partner? I showed him the light positive and he says "that's very light," A few hours later I showed him the Digital and he said "Oh, cool." Very dramatic lol We are both still very, very cautious
