9DPO and BFP and what I did differently

Sooooo my little boy for the past few weeks has been mentioning twins in all of his conversations....even if it isn't twins, I am praying for 1 healthy baby!

BFP ON JANUARY 1ST 🧡

Here are my symptoms and what I did differently in the month of December.7DPO I started having cramping (not normal, not even in periods) my lower back was hurting super bad, boobs hurt a little, insomnia, and tired...all of those were the same with 8DPO(I woke up with my boobs hurting so bad that it stretched into my armpits--so bad that it woke me from sleep lol and 9DPO (Jan. 1st) same symtoms, plus I had a strange hotflash with nausea feeling which lasted like 10 minutes, peeing more, and at 11pm I was like, "you know what I'm just gonna go for it." So I snuck in the bathroom thinking I was going to waste another test. Postive popped up so fast! We have been trying for 8 months and the 8th month we kind of relaxed and did not stress. I even was planning on taking a break and getting a tattoo to keep mind off TTC.

So this is what I did differently. I stopped being on this app so much! I use to just read all the hot and new posts, I would symptom spot and look at all the tests--which just stressed me out. So all I did was log the shit I needed to update and only looked at engagements and stuff like that! Congrats btw!

I did add new medicine on December 18th, which I believed has helped! I already was taking a fish oil and a pill on amazon called CONCEPTION (prenatal) I added FERTILITY BLEND and Maca Root (both from GNC). We also have been using PRESEED! I just applied on my man and put some on myself (did not use application this cycle).

And last, but not least, I kept busy! I did fun stuff to keep my mind off of TTC.....I use to just stress about it all the time, but this time I really let go and enjoyed the moments. Alot of outside time--where I live is 24/7 summer, so lots of beach time. Me time. Baby dust to you all!!! I hope this is your year!!! Posting annon due to not wanting family and friends to know yet :)

Update: 3 BFP at home and doctor said negative....told me to come back Friday to retake and if it is still negative, blood tests will be done.....first 2 positives were before doctor and 3rd was done after doctors office! Stomach is feeling bloated today (10DPO with all previous symptoms as above) 11DPO same symptoms, a lot more peeing, actually feeling energized...12DPO took test and BFP....tomorrow I'll go to doctors again (Friday here) and take urine sample, If its negative I'll do blood work

SECOND UPDATE: my urine test on that Friday was postive and had to wait till Feb 19th for ultrasound! I am now almost 12 weeks with just one little baby :) I do believe the maca root did wonders!
