Found out two days ago that we are expecting our first baby!!! Im wanting to share what led up to it to hopefully help anyone who may be experiencing similar symptoms! Normally i have a 30 day cycle. I had EWCM for 8 days, use OPKs and finally got a positive on CD20, so ovulated later than normal! Some ovulation spotting on CD22. Got my clear faint line on CD30! My symptpms: very very very dizzy.... felt extremely off and thought there was something seriously wrong (guess now I know!). Insomnia.. I've been waking up at about 3am every night WIDE AWAKE. No spotting. Cramping off and on, and they do feel like AF cramps but they dont last very long. Nausea started yesterday and comes in waves. VERY THIRSTY. And I swear my boobs are bigger and feel heavier already.

I've been off birth control since August 2017 and my heart sunk every single month that I got those stark white negatives and AF spotting. BUT.... biggest difference this month was I stopped obsessing as much! I stopped symptom spotting, stopped documenting every little thing, and I just enjoyed the journey with my husband! I swear it made the biggest difference! I took the pregnancy test when I got home from work on Tuesday (after I had been peeing ALL day and drinking lots of water), NOT expecting it to be positive at all... and there it was! BABY DUST to all of you ladies still trying for your BFP.... trust me, some days I thought it would never ever come...... but it will!!! Stay positive! 🖤 and thanks for reading!
