BFP by Prayer

Even though we finally got our positive test after three months of finally seeing the reproductive specialist/endocrinologist! Before that it was a total of 2 yrs trying after our first child turned one! So thankful and give all glory to God! I took metformin 850 mg twice a day, parlodel to lower prolactin, synthroid to lower thyroid levels, prenatal and a baby aspirin. Thankfully all these combined leveled out hormones and I was able to ovulate! Got a positive pregnancy test 10 days after ovulation which I followed with answer 20 day ovulation kit. I used this same kit while trying with my first and it works awesome and is just under 20 bucks! It's good for women as myself who have longer cycles or ovulate at all different times! I highly recommend! Good luck and God bless all you sweet women out there still waiting. It is the hardest part I know. But one day the wait will be over in a flash!

What worked for me. Almost one year trying..My mom suggested I do a 30 day prayer fast. Every night I got on my knees & prayed to God. Not only for a baby but thanking him for everything I already have and being appreciative of the now and to give me the tools to be a good mom. I also heard about Pre-Seed and tried it that month as well. Pre-Seed & Prayer!! With Pre-Seed my husband & I tried it about 4 times around ovulation. I was hoping it worked because hubby was not a fan. Made things too slippery down there. First symptom was food/meat adversion. Was making dinner & the smell if the chicken made me gag. Took a test right away. BFP!

Writing this at 40 weeks. My due date is today & I'm waiting on my girl to make her appearance hopefully soon. No sign of labor yet.

Good luck to you all. It gets hard but keep at it.

This is my 4th cycle TTC since AF returned in January after having my son a year ago. I was still nursing up till a week ago until I weaned so thought it would take a while longer. I will be 33 next month and DH is 36. We have a 13 month old son that was a provera and clomid baby after getting off BC and AF not returning. No medical issues just been dealing with low progesterone after having blood drawn last month and it was only 3.4 so I thought it would take a while. I am shocked to get my BFP this morning at 10 dpo. Here are my symptoms or lack there of. Looking back I did have them but didn't know better.
O day: cramping but that is normal, I had a pos opk the day before
1-8 dpo: constipation and that is not normal for me, very runny nose and sneezing (thought allergies) and stringy/lotiony/sticky CM which is not normal bc I have never even seem EWCM
8-10 dpo: red/brownish blood showed up that night and was determined it was AF, my lp has only been 9-10 days so didn't think twice it being IB (only had a few dots with son). Bleeding comes and goes still when I wipe but hoping for the best. Today I started have loose bowel. I started getting cramps and sore breasts (in armpit area) also. Tested this morning with FRER and BFP right away with faint line! I almost died!! Didn't expect it
Things I have been doing before O is Pre-Seed (Love It), robitussin, opks and ate pineapple after O. I prayed a lot to God for a baby and he delivered! I didn't raise my hips or anything, just didn't go to the bathroom afterwards. I have no CM ever so I needed Pre-Seed and will continue to use it as our new lube!! Good luck ladies and I pray this is a sticky bean!!!

Finally after years of trying I can say "I'm PREGNANT" Can't believe it! I have stalked this site for years and always dreamed of contributing my story. I started trying in April 2009. Have gone through many rounds of clomid and was told by the doctor that the only way I will probably get pregnant is through IUI or IVF. Since I don't have the finances for those I pretty much just gave up until I became rich in the future (If that would ever happen). This cycle I had one prescription left of my prometrium and I started taking Vitex (which did wonders, it took my pain away) I also lost 70 pounds. So here are my symptoms even though this month I stopped stressing and calculating every little thing.

CD 18 - Ovulation
3dpo-12dpo- Hungry and very tired, I slept and ate a lot this week... I am known to binge so I never thought it could be that.
12-13dpo- Cramping low down in the pubic bone on and off
14dpo- BFP in the PM, before I drank wine just to see. I was exhausted and had nausea on and off. Very tired but sleepless, still have cramps
15-17dpo- Cramping, hot flashes, nausea, exhausted (like can't keep my eyes open at all) LARGE breasts and very sore nipples. Broken Cappilaries on my arm too (never seen these before)

Due Date is January, 16 2014... Can't wait... This only happened by power of prayer, God has listened to me over and over and he now is giving me my time, I love him so much... this would have never happened without him!

I am now 5 weeks pregnant and still exhausted and have cramps on and off

Can't believe I am finally posting this after 24 months of trying without any medical condition or ailment from either me or hubby. It was really frustrating. After doing hsg and confirmed to be ok. I was placed on clomid (100mg) for about 6 cycles and nothing happened. I had to change my doctor and he still confirmed I was ok and said we should try clomid (50mg) for another 3 cycles. I told him I ovulate on my own because I normally feel the ovulation cramps whenever I ovulate but he insisted. We tried for 3 cycles and it didn't work. I was tired of the whole stuff and began to feel hopeless. Then the doctor suggested hydrotubation which I objected. That very cycle I didn't take clomid and there was no hydrotubation. I just took vitamin e for 2 two weeks and folic acid and of course prayers was offered to me by Pastor Enoch Adeboye (RCCG general overseer) when he came to makurdi on May 7, 2013. I just tested and for the very first time, I got a positive. I am so excited. To anyone reading this post and feeling hopeless, I will like to say to you that it is possible. Don't give up. It could just be this cycle for you.

For my symptoms, I will say it wasn't anything different from the pains I feel in the other months except that despite the cramps, there was no af. Terrible cramps about 4 - 5 dpo. Major af cramps around 11 - 17 dpo along with sore nipples. Honestly I had given up for this month because it is the same way I feel in the past months with pains at my lower back and my ovaries. Only God knows how it happened because with him there is no impossibilty.

Because of his travel schedule, DH and I decided to officially try for the first time in May, but we got an early surprise this Mother's Day! Hubbie got back from a boy's trip on 4/29, just after 1am, the day I O'd. Luckily (?) I was so sick from an Oyster & Craft Beer (my last of both for awhile!) Festival that I ended up working from home. We BD'd twice.

Ovulation was CD12-13, and we BD'd on Day 12.

1-6 DPO I was queasy- I thought it was the residual effects of the Oysters and Craft beer at first, but it kept going.
During this time I also experienced no appetite off and on.

7-14 DPO I started feeling extremely gassy. I also experienced off and on dry mouth and twinges on my lower right side.

Days 10 & 11 I lost it- had two emotional break downs. One because DH planned a business trip during the time we were suposed to "try for the first time" and the other because of something silly. I was so irrationally upset (vs. a normal annoyance).

Days 11-13 Vivid Dreams.

Mother's Day, 13 dpo-- Fatigue, tender bb's, frequent urination, random acne and a BFP! It was really faint on my FRER on Sunday AM so I bought a digi Test. I couldn't hold my bladder long enough so I tested this AM. A BFP in black & white!!

Right after my O I started tracking temps just to have a baseline and get an idea what to expect when I did it for the full cycle. Temps Post O were up and down. A steady 97.5 for three days then up and down between 97.7's and 97.9's. Today I hit 98.11!

We couldn't ask for a better time to receive some good news and can't wait till July (on DH's birthday) to share with our families!!!

Me: 28, BC since 21 (stopped January, cycle normalized pretty quickly)
DH: 31

I'm still in shock! I have an almost two year old and have been officially trying for 9 months. I couldn't be more excited!

Dpo 5-10 Back pain continues, start getting slightly nauseous, sore Bbs

We are so excited to grow our family!
What I did different this month.....
Planned and looked forward to a vacation, helped take my mind off "Waiting" and hanging on to every symptom.

Cut down on processed sugar, ate a lot of spinach, sweet potatoes, and all other fruits and vegetables.

Prayed a lot!!

Good luck everyone, baby dust and prayers!

HOLY WOW! I cannot believe this is happening and I got a BFP this evening! I started following this site about 3 months ago and I am so thankful I found it! We started TTC #1 in January after two years of being on birth control. Each month was a learning experience for me trying to figure out my body and ovulation. At first, I was no drinking alcohol, caffeine, eating healthy, working out, and taking pre-natals. And after only 3 months of being upset with no BFP yet (which is pathetic by the way!) I decided April I was going to relax and not worry about TTC. Doing all those things made me think about it more and made me a crazy person! So I drank my DP, a glass of wine and margarita and ate whatever I felt I needed. Also, I think I finally decided to give it all to God, that I trust Him 100% for whatever He had planned for us. Baby or no baby!

This month I could have sworn I was out for the month. We only BD'ed one day during my fertile period. My CD was April 14th, we BD'ed on April 26th (predicted ovulation was either the 26th or 27th!) and AF was due today the 10th. After no spotting the past few days and a no show today, I decided I would POS this evening. Well, low and behold! BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!! We cannot believe it and are praying fervently for a healthy and smooth pregnancy. It is such a blessing, truly.

I had very few symptoms, if even any symptoms at all.

1-10 DPO Nothing except creamy CM
11-12 DPO Creamy CM, tired, sore bbs
13-14 DPO AF no show! creamy CM, tired, very sore bbs, slight cramps and twinges, my lower back is hurting alot today also
evening of 14 DPO BFP!!!

I still cannot believe I am typing this and this is real! I encourage you all to be patient, use the community here to help you and be there for you! I am praying for you all daily and for this to be a sticky little pea!
