my story

hey Ladies. I just wanted to share my story with you!

after being on bc for the majority of the years between 2003 & 2017, I finally ditched it for good in late June. I was on pills depo and then two nexplanon implants for the last 5 years.

I gave myself a few months before starting TTC. only because bc thins your lining so it's often hard to implant until things are back to normal according to my doc. the last 4 months were tough. we faced so many issues. seemed like something always came up in the fertile week. so I bought some cheap opks on Amazon so I could really make sure we were getting our bd on at the right time. this last cycle I also tried temping. just to confirm for myself that we got the right timing and to watch for the dip before af. I honestly thought i had months ahead of doing this. I got af on Christmas (it sucked!!) but I made the best of it. got my first ever blazing positive opk right as predicted on 1/6/18. so we got our bd on that night and the next day. I totally did the silly legs up in the air for a bit. even got my hips up a bit. around a week later I was super nauseous like non stop on Monday. so by Wednesday morning I caved and used my frer bfn. I was convinced I wasn't pg. Friday morning used some store brand blue dye and my line came right up!!! I'm so excited and nervous. but I just wanted to share because if I heard relax and don't track just let it happen one more time I'd scream. as long as you dont stress yourself out, tracking does help. not every couples can bd constantly. also all those years of bc didn't make it take forever like Id expected. baby dust to you all. 😘
