BFP au Naturale

For over a year I stalked this site and your stories have given me hope. My and DH have been trying for over a year and a half. This month was different because due to life's stressors Bding was the not on our list of priorities with that stated God's timing is perfect. We had prayer for fertility about two months ago I also have pcos. Since then I have had a sense of peace about the whole thing and knew it would happen but when was the ultimate question. Well this month I had no real symptoms and in fact I waited until I was late before I tested because I keep feeling my period but it was only clear discharge. Needless to say after months of disappointments, tears and feeling like my prayers were not being heard we finally got our BFP and I'm screaming to the top of my lungs keep the faith because God is Awesome!!!!

I loved reading everyones symptoms so thought I would post my own. I've been ttc #3 since May 2013 so this was my second cycle trying.

BD every day from CD 9-15. I think I O'd on CD15 or 16

1-3dpo
- No symptoms

4dpo
- Pressure down low in pelvic area, really uncomfortable to cross legs, increased urination, sore bbs, can't stop eating - I will eat a meal and then have a packet of crisps or an apple and still be hungry

5dpo
- Pressure down low in pelvic area, really uncomfortable to cross legs, increased urination, sore bbs, still really hungry

6dpo
- Sore throat, pressure down low in pelvic area, really uncomfortable to cross legs, increased urination, sore bbs, still really hungry - ate a steak slice and I don't eat meat normally. Hpt -BFN

7dpo
- Still uncomfortable to cross legs, sore bbs, itchy bbs, indigestion, sore throat, heavy feelin in uterus, achy lower back -HPT-BFN

8-10dpo
- AF type cramping n lower back and stomach. Thought maybe af was coming early but I never get cramping until the day it arrives normally. Not due till 14dpo so do a hpt, BFN, gutted and lose heart. Still really hungry and literally can not stop eating!!!

11dpo (today)
- Woke with af type cramps again and was sure af was coming early. Took an Internet cheapie hpt got a bfn, felt down but had the urge to do another test do use a £ store hpt, very faint bfp. Then did a clearblue digital that I had in the house and got a 'not pregnant'. But, I couldn't stop looking at the very faint positive I had on the £ store hpt, ended up running out to the shops to get a frer, did the test at midday and got a fit but very clear BFP.

Can't believe It and I'm so excited. Hubby is overseas in America until next weekend so I'm going to try not to tell him until he's home as I'd rather do it face to face.

Good luck to all you waiting of your bfp x x

So I suffered a missed abortion in January 2012. It was a shock and devastating to say the least. I had heard you were extremely fertile after a d&c but ob told me to wait three cycles before trying again. Of course I did not listen. Month after month dh and I would bd on the days I thought I was ovulating. Month after month bfn. Finaly dh said it was time to stop and go on bc. Well I made my apt... but didn't need it. I started a new job that week and with my first pay check I was buying shampoo, soap etc. And noticed first response was on sale for 3.50 for one test. Hell yeah! Bought it and went home and of course I peed on it imediately. It looked like a line was coming up before I even sat the stick down. That can't be right. So I waited a minute or two... defiantly there! So I flew down to his work and showed him.. all he has to say was oh...cool. lol! I was in shock but so happy now. I'm at 8 weeks today praying everything goes well. Already had us. Already found a hb :) Good luck ladies. It will happen!!!

I'm older, DH and I thought we would try again last year. After six months and nothing, we resigned ourselves to the fact that we were past our fertility prime and accepted it.
I can't tell you how shocked I was when af was late, then bfp on cd 32!
The only real symptoms I had was one day of feeling super tired (around cycle day 26), two days of pink on the toilet paper after wiping (cycle days 26 & 28), and serious mood swings. I'm almost five weeks and just now getting sore bbs, and frequent urination.
Wasn't trying, but feel so happy and blessed. I wish all of you lovely ladies the best of luck, and keep the faith!

Okay I know everyone always says this but I really have been stalking this site for a long while, and promised myself I would write my story when my time came :)

Around a week ago I was posting in the am I pregnant section, only to get lots of 'no' votes. This is because the only day I could have conceived on is the day before I was due AF (crazy right). But NOT impossible! Don't know how it happened but I just knew I was pregnant despite the fact it makes no sense.

So below you will see I am putting days past conception, not ovulation-no idea what day that would have been!

So symptoms:
1dpc - Had a very strange stomach gurgling and felt like I knew I was pregnant.
2dpc - No AF and lots of gassiness
3dpc - Gassiness again and had some light headedness
4dpc-9dpc: Increased sense of smell, fatigue, still no AF, lots of weird feelings in my stomach, felt hungry but full very fast.
10dpc - Textbook implantation; light pink on wiping then brown about 30 mins later, more brown on one occasion the next day. BFN cheapie fmu
11dpc - Still no AF, woke up feeling majorly rough with a sore throat and nauseaous. BFN from day before had now developed a second line- definitely not evap. So as soon as I got home from work took a FRER and got a line! Not faint, not dark but definitely there!

Next day was confirmed by a digital and 3 days later I am still poas cause its addictive!

I don't know how it happened but am very happy! Last LMP was May 4, day of conception May 30. If anyone has any clue to how on earth my EDD would be worked out then would love some advice!

GL to all TTC xxx

Just to give all of you impatiently waiting something to cheer you. I had cramping, light headedness, migraine, tingling breasts and in twinges in my tummy by Monday when our unprotected sex was on Saturday! I tested today Friday and got a light but very positive urine test!!!

So I've been stalking this site for about a year now, looked for every sign I could. Month by month all I saw was negatives. Both my sister's got pregnant first month so I was sure I was gonna be the same, was I wrong. I finally decided to schedule a fertility apt to get tested, was scheduled for the 27th.. guess I won't be going there anymore :) I had a few solid signs but I didn't want to get to excited. Since I had my apt already scheduled, I decided why not and ordered FertiliTea, FertilAid and FertileCM. I'm guessing this worked :) I only drank the tea for 1 week around ovulation and took the pills for 3 weeks until I got my positive. I never got a positive ovulation test this cycle which was unlike other cycles. I didn't keep much symptoms but around 7-8 DPO my nipples were really sore.. just nipples though, but I didn't think of this much cuz that happens every month b4 my period. On 9 DPO I did have 2 drops of blood on my underwear..I assumed implementation bleeding, but still didn't believe it..lol..The day after my period was do we BD and it really hurt my cervix, I assumed cervix was dropped and was really disappointed, for sure thought period was coming. Decided to test the next morning, POAS and both DH and I watched as it turned dark automatically, then took a digital.. great father's day present :) I would really recommend FertilAid, not sure if that was it but that was the only thing I did different this month.. hope it sticks! Baby dust to all :)

I noticed this month that my cramps were all low behind my pelvic bone and they didn't last very long. My bb's were mildly sore mainly nipples. I didn't have any usual p.m.s symptoms other than moodiness. That's what made me suspect I may be pregnant. I usually always get cramps and spotting at least three days before my period. I tested at 8 dpo (by the calendar) and it was negative. So I was disappointed and decided to wait and see if I miss my period to test again. So one day after missed period I got bfp at 14 dpo. Dh and I bedded almost everyday the whole month. Other months we only tried around when the calendar predicted ovulation and it didn't work. I hope this helps others waiting to find out! :)

I've spent the last 13 months stalking these pages and now I am delighted to post my symptoms before my BFP.

The biggest sign now looking back was extremely bad skin around the area between my cheeks and chin on both sides. It was like a really bad rash.
I had spotting (tiniest amount) when I wiped after peeing one day. I started getting my hopes up then.
My bbs felt swollen and tender but nothing like before some of my periods.
I got a sore throat and found it hard to sleep. It was a dry tickley sensation.
My thirst increased hugely (although that may have been due to the sudden improvement in weather)
Really tired, bed by 9 some nights.
Tested in the evening of 13dpo and got a faint positive.
Tested again at 6 the following morning. Much stronger BFP.

Tried for 3 months last year and took a break to 'find myself'... cheese I know but I needed to make sure I was trying for #3 for the right reasons. Plus I was getting a bit stressed about it all :-/ I started college, volunteering, swimming..art.. Writing you name it. I still wanted it. So we started trying again in March, my cycles are so irregular it's unreal but we got there!! Well here's my symptoms, little nausea and spots and a little heartburn.. Identical to cycles ending in af sooo yeah. I am soo happy but will be a lot more at ease when my test gets darker!! Gl to you all, I'm obese but fit and have the wonky cycles but me and dh got there in the end. Wishing you all luck xxx
