When they tell you to relax it will happen...

Emily

everywhere you look people are saying to relax, it'll happen, you'll get pregnant but it's pretty much impossible to relax.

hubby and I were trying for what felt like forever. using opks, checking cm, being every night, at least every other. testing too early. constantly getting negative tests.

last month I had it. the disappointment was too much. I was tired of feeling I had to have sex to get pregnant rather than enjoying it. tired of thinking every twinge was something.

we decided to take a break on trying. I deleted this app. I didn't use opks. I didn't track my cycle and only had sex when I was in the mood (which seemed to be a lot more often than when trying).

we had mind blowing sex multiple times a week. it was the most stress-free month I've had in awhile. I focused on my health, going to the gym, eating right and seeing my family.

we traveled for almost a week surrounding Thanksgiving and saw old friends and had a blast, i didn't even think about ttc.

two nights ago I had the strangest dream. it was like broken puzzle pieces but it felt so real. I woke up in a sweat and something told me to test. it was the first time it had even crossed my mind that af was due tomorrow.

I got a strong bfp.

I'm not sure if it was just coincidence or if it was the fact that I actually figured out how to relax but I can say... I'm pregnant!!!

I redownloaded this app specifically to post my story hoping that it will help one of you ladies.

baby dust to all ❤️
