My bfp experience and symptoms
So I just found out I’m
Pregnant. Only 4 weeks but i wanted to go over what i felt in hopes to help someone since the forums and this app was a huge help for me.
1. I have been using pullout method for 11 years and never got pregnant. This made me feel like i was infertile or something was wrong with me
WHAT I LEARNED: pull out method is actually very effective if done correctly.
2. I have a tilted uterus, doctors told me it would be hard to get pregnant.
WHAT I LEARNED: deep penetration is key. Doggy style, standing up etc. (clearly wasn’t that hard for me)
3. During fertile week we BD 3 times 2 times early in the week and once around ovulation. (Either day of or day before)
WHAT I LEARNED: i was so caught up in reading what my chances are and it’s true what they say all it takes is ONE time.
What i did: I started prenatals a couple weeks before. And this month i drank raspberry leave tea from after AF up until ovulation (not sure if this helped)
I did not temp (i tried but it wasn’t for me) and i did not use opks. I listened to my body (doesn’t work for everyone) and tracked my CM to pinpoint when i was fertile.
ALSO, this app lined up perfectly for me with my fertile week. Next was Fertility friend, and Ovia was completely off.
There’s a lot of people having a hard time to get pregnant but just know when it’s your time it’s your time. I was so caught up thinking i was going to have a hard time and it happened in the first month. I am praying for a stickey bean but just wanted to give you guys that there’s always hope regardless of what doctors say.
Symptoms: two random waves of nausea about 2 dpo. Twinges, pressure and light cramps around 6dpo - 11 dpo. Then HOLY BOOBS. I always get sore boobs but these are different. My nipples are always hard and they were actually painful for some days so much i didnt wear a bra. I tested about 12/13 dpo.
Hope this helps everyone.
BABY DUST TO ALL!!!
