Finally got my BFP! Here’s what I did:
Hi ladies. Thought I’d give a little run down of what happened for me since I’ve loved reading discussions here on my TTC journey. We tried for 7 months before we got ours so stay positive, your time is coming! As you can see on the tests I got my first vvvfl on 11 DPO on a first response test and a darker line on 12 with a confirmation from a digital clear blue. The clear blue said not pregnant the day before with FMU.
Things I did differently my last cycle: started taking 200 mg of Coq10 and Evening Primrose. I can’t even explain how much of a difference the evening primrose made to my CM. It quadrupled in amount, and I had a decent amount to begin with. I highly recommend! But just be sure to stop using the day before you ovulate. Another thing I did on top of tracking is I made sure we BD at least every other day from CD 7 to CD21 (a suggestion from my OB). I also ate a lot of pineapple around 7 DPO.
Things I did every cycle: tracked with OPKs, took a prenatal, sex every day in window, and put my DH on coq10 the last month and a multivitamin around month 4.
Symptoms for me to KNOW I was pregnant before I tested is that my period symptoms just weren’t showing up. Normally I got pretty bad cramps feeling like AF was about to show around 8 DPO and then again around 10 DPO with some light spotting. I had literally no symptoms this time. I’m now 13 DPO and my only symptom I would say is I’m a little more tired and I’ve got some back pain this morning.
Just wanted to post this in the hopes in encourages or helps someone. Baby dust!!!
