1 year and 2 months ago when we embarked on this journey I thought I would get pregnant right away. Everyone else I knew with children had them by accident and we were actually trying. After so many disappointing months I finally got a VVF positive. The line never gotten any darker, it faded until it disappeared completely and AF came. The chemical pregnancy was really disappointing. The next few months I became more aggressive. I bought a fancy digital ovulation monitor (used from eBay),preseed,liquid geritol (Yuck)and tons of cheap opk and hpt strips online. I also through in some raspberry leaf and Chinese fertility tea (boil dried longon, gogi,and juju berries) I gave up caffeine and liquor and started working out. I ate fresh pineapple after ovulation to encourage implantation and I drank grapefruit juice and took mucinex to increase cervical fluid. It was exhausting! I gave up on the Chinese tea, drank coffee and some liquor last cycle. I also got back in to crossfit. I had quit because I thought working out too hard was bad but then the doctor told me as long as I'm getting a period in not working out too hard. She also said that about my weight, as long as I'm getting a period I'm not too fat. Well I finally got a real BFP I couldn't accept it until I actually saw the lines getting darker and darker. My husband's been really stressed about this and he internalized his feelings and stays positive for me. My plan was to surprise him face to face with the digital pregnancy test and these little crocheted nike booties I had made to look exactly like his favorite shoes. While on the phone with him on my lunch break he told me he was on his was to the doctor to check his reproductive parts because it was really bothering him that he couldn't get me pregnant. I couldn't let him stress out about it any longer. I blurted out "I'm Pregnant!"
