TTGP Grad Announcements October 2024

If you are a contributing member who has been active here for a full 3
months with a BFP this month, CONGRATULATIONS! Please share your success
with us here.ย
How do you know if you're a contributing member?ย
1. Ask your heart if you have contributed positively here.ย
2. Do these people know you? Will they be happy about your pregnancy?ย
3. Have you offered support to others or have you just blasted your own info out there?ย
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.ย
5. Again, take a moment and step away from your excitement and ask your heart if posting would be potentially hurtful.ย
ย -----------------------------------------------------------ย
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.ย
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.ย
CD/DPO of first BFP?ย
How many months/cycles had you been TTC?ย
How long have you been an active participant on the TTGP board? (minimum: 3 full months)
What did your chart look like?ย
What were you doing TGKU?ย
How was your timing? What symptoms did you have, if any? (CS & CD breakdowns welcome)
How are you going to/did you tell your partner?ย
Anything else to add?
Re: TTGP Grad Announcements October 2024
I had some symptoms, but itโs hard to tell whatโs from the pregnancy and whatโs from the progesterone. The only thing that was different than our unsuccessful FET was my boobs were hurting. That started at 7dp5dt. Iโve also been tired and nauseous, but I got that last time so itโs probably the progesterone.
I just canโt believe I finally get to post here. I thought Iโd never graduate from TTGP!
