Kirsten's journey to Glow

Kirsten • Im Kirsten, & I'm a mommy to Jazmyne

Hi, my name is Kirsten.

My partner and I have been trying for 13 months to get pregnant, we've been together 26 months, I'd like to learn more about Glow as I meet you wonderful ladies who've been ttc or have had a baby.

I had a loss on 4/24/2013, I didn't even know I was pregnant until 4/21/2013 because I had my period all throughout my pregnancy and I was on birth control as well.

I got pregnant around the end of January 2013 when I missed a night of birth control. I noticed subtle changes in my body, especially my emotions. I had numerous mood swings, I was very tired, etc., well, I took a test with fmu on April 21, 2013 and it was a BFP, well, my bleeding got heavier and my cramps got worse. I didn't think anything of it. Three days later, I went to family planning where my miscarriage was confirmed. No scan, just a feel of the cervix.

In June of 2013, my partner came back from north carolina (he's in the military) and we were ttc, I had lots of ewcm, didn't know I was ovulating, so I did an ovulation home test, which did confirm I was ovulating. After he went back to his duty station, I took numerous hpts because I felt many symptoms.. All were bfn's. I was so heartbroken. Then in Dec 2013, he came home for 10 days and we were ttc then also, had some ewcm (not a lot though, maybe early start of ovulation) and after we did the dew I took an hpt which was bfn, another disappointment.

I went to California March 28-April 4th, we thought I was pregnant, so we did a digital test, said "not pregnant" I couldn't believe it. I was soo torn.

Now, we are on our journey of ttc.

Please say a prayer for us that we can get pregnant.
