8 DPO and hoping!!

Kendra

I waited a long time to finally try and get pregnant. I have four siblings that are young enough to be my kids, so I put it off thinking I had time. Then I had a terrible abusive marriage. And then a string of bad luck relationships since. I recently started trying for my first baby and I'm doing it on my own. I just turned 37 last month, and I just got sick of waiting for a man to tell me when it was okay for me to be a mom. I had spotting three DPO, and I am not the kind of person that spots. So that was hopeful sign number one.I have been ridiculously insanely bloated for a week now, it's almost embarrassing. I've started being more and more tired over the last few days, but that could simply be because of the state of the world. This morning I woke up to painful heavy breasts. They usually don't pull that stunt until I'm 2 days away from seeing AF. Pregnancy test says no, but it's still early days. Fingers crossed though, I'm hoping I didn't miss my shot at this.
