BFP with Preseed

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to write on here cos I know it helped me through some frustrating times. We had been TTC for about 1 year. We got our first BFP back in November 2012 but then sadly it was a blighted ovum and I had to have a D&C. I finally got my AF back in February so we jumped back on the wagon. I usually get brown spotting anywhere from 4-7 days prior to AF, however I did get this the first time we conceived too. This time was completely different. I can feel when I ovulate so its a bit hard to be spontaneous. We did relax a lot more this time and didn't stress so much about doing the deed every day. here's what my symtoms where

CD17 - Ov (had 1 OPK left so tested when I got the pain)
CD23 - Felt really faint in the evening and felt like an anxiety attack
CD24-31 - Feeling really anxious each day with very high heart rate, dreaming heaps, had very very very light pink when wiping (if I wasn't looking there's no way you would ever notice) around CD27

The only thing we did differently this month was chill out a bit (easier said than done I know) I think I was just a bit over the process. Also my acupuncturist gave me some herbs to stop the brown spotting before AF so not sure if it was just our time or if that helped too.

1 dpo Nothing
2 dpo Nothing new
3 dpo Still nothing
4 dpo TMI a lot of creamy cm
5 dpo Kinda tired and moody still creamy cm
6 dpo CM is now like ewcm back pain
7 dpo opk positive got exited maybe oed really late so we bded still back pain
8 dpo Nothing thought it was 1 dpo so i started counting again
9-11dpo Was not thinking about it at all a lil stuffy
12 dpo Nauseous and very anointed in am so just for kicks did a test and there it was my BFP after 20 months or trying we did it thank you preseed :) I'm so excited good luck to all you ttcing never give up

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.

Hi everyone!

I came across this site in March and it has been SUCH a source of inspiration to me, and I can't believe I'm posting my own BFP story on here now. Some background - tried with my first husband from 2003 till early 2012, had 6 M/C's in that time. Long unexplained gaps in between pregnancies, tests revealed nothing at all wrong with me and no reasons for the M/C's. Found issues with ex DH, a very abnormal sperm morphology issue (85% abnormal with 15% normal). Told our only hope was to try ICSI, was offered 2 cycles of this on the NHS. In February 2012, literally ten days before I was due to start injections, ex DH left me after 16 years of marriage. He was having an affair with my best friend, totally devastated, thought my chance to become a Mum was over at age 38.

Then got together with a close friend who I'd known for ten years, married him on April 6th but started to try last March. DH had a test and count etc all came back fine. NHS said if I needed it I was still entitled to 2 rounds of IVF/ICSI but I must access this before my 40th birthday this coming October. Hoped we would catch naturally without having to do this.

Started temping and charting again in March, BFN in March and April, convinced I was pregnant in April but the witch arrived a few days later than normal for me. So this month, this is what we did and my symptoms:

BD 3 days before OV and the day before OV. DH was then away with work on the day itself so we couldn't BD, and I was convinced I was out this time.
1-3 DPO - No symptoms.
4-9 DPO - Really tired, was in my office on a web training course and couldn't help closing my eyes and nodding off a bit, very unlike me. Sore BBS towards 7-8 DPO but usually get that anyway before AF due.
9 DPO - Creamy CM, again unusual for me, woke up twice in the night needing the loo - never usually do that.
10 DPO - Had two pink spots of blood when I wiped after going to the loo - thought that's it, I'm definitely out because I usually spot before AF appears, but AF can take up to 2 days or so to arrive from when I start to spot
11 DPO - Brown spotting, sore bbs, very tired, cramp like pains in my lower back and sides.
12 DPO - Sore bbs, cramp like pains in my lower back and sides.
13 DPO - Really tired, decided to have a glass of white wine to relax after getting back from my office and it went straight to my head, only had half - again unusual for me.
14 DPO - AF due, been a few days since the spotting, convinced that AF was still on the way.
15 DPO - Still convinced that AF was on the way but just a bit later than normal, sore BBS (very sore in fact), cramp like pains in my lower back and sides. Exhausted.
16 DPO - Went into town and bought 2 x packs HPT's, 1 digital pack and one normal pack. Said to myself I would NOT test until 18 DPO if AF doesn't show, but couldn't resist testing that evening at approximately 8.15pm, so I thought it would be completely the wrong time to test, but did it anyway. Used one of the digital tests, within seconds a BFP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A minute or so later it says "2-3 weeks". Woke up DH to tell him as he wasn't very well in bed with a flu virus, he thought he was dreaming!
17 DPO - Used second digital test first thing when I got up to get a second opinion - BFP again within seconds!! Booked doctors appointment and been referred to the EPU for initial consultation and scan next Tuesday due to my history of miscarriages, even though they were likely down to the issue my ex DH had.
18 DPO - Still can't believe it so use one of the normal tests, Superdrug own brand - strong pink BFP line within seconds again!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Definitely pregnant!!
What I did differently this last month - I bought and used Pre-Seed without letting my DH know (ran into the bathroom before BD and used the inserting tube with it) and tried to relax although difficult knowing I only had till October to try and get pregnant naturally. I cut out alcohol for the most part from March 10th onwards this year and only had a bit at my wedding to DH, and the one the other night.

Don't ever give up ladies, I'm living proof it CAN happen!!!!!!! Obviously I have a long way to go yet, but praying that this one sticks!!!

Here's to happy and healthy BFP's and baby dust to all!!!

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!!!

I finally got my bfp back in March, I am almost 15 weeks :) This was our 16th cycle trying. We had all the testing done and nothing was wrong so my doctor put me on clomid 50mg days 3-7. I was originally pregnant with twins but we had a disappearing twin around 6 weeks, other baby is doing great though :)
Here are my symptoms:
-nothing, really absolutely nothing out of the ordinary. I was absolutely convinced that this was not my month, I even cried to my hubby about how it was never going to happen just a few days before my bfp
-I did have increased cm the entire month, not just in my tww but I'm pretty sure it was the clomid. In my tww it was this weird stretchy, creamy stuff I've never really had before and I do still get it but I distinctly remember my cm drying up around 9 dpo.
-my boobs were very sore from around 8 or 9 dpo which is also completely normal
-very tired and hungry during entire tww, again completely normal
-I had a very small amount of spotting for a few hours on the day af was due, I was sure she was here but it stopped completely so I tested the next morning at 15 dpo and got a very dark bfp!

So the moral of the story? You can be pregnant with no unusual symptoms :)

I just got my test results back from the doctor, so barring any unforeseen issues between now and Monday when I get another beta taken, I am officially preggers! I wanted to share my story with you because this site has helped me through so many ups and downs, and I want to pay it forward. After a year of being off birth control, "trying but not trying" then "trying" then having some issues with my cycles, I've realized anything can happen. Whether you're taking a break, actively checking every single possible symptom, or just letting it happen naturally, anything is possible.

This month was our first month using Pre-Seed, my third month temping. We bd'd 3 days leading up to O. DH and I had both been under a ton of stress at our jobs, so I really wasn't thinking this would be the month. My most noticeable symptom that was not normal for me was fatigue. I was so.tired.

1-3 DPO - sore bbs (this happens slightly before and after ovulation regularly)
4-9 DPO - creamy CM, sore bbs
9 DPO - negative HPT; didn't think it would be positive, was just curious
10 DPO - streak of blood on panties, creamy CM, sore bbs
11 DPO - brown spotting mixed with creamy CM, sore bbs, fatigue
12 DPO - brown spotting mixed with creamy CM continues, sore bbs, fatigue, think I'm out
13 DPO - brown spotting continues (less than previous and only in AM), creamy CM continues, cramps, fatigue, waiting for AF
14 DPO - brown spotting lightens up a LOT - only noticed it in the AM, cramping, creamy CM, fatigue. Get incredibly tipsy off of one, small drink, this is when I thought something was definitely up.
15 DPO - same as previous, hubs notices my fatigue, decide to test in AM
16 DPO - BFP FMU
20 DPO - BFP confirmed with blood test

Hang in there, ladies!

Hello Two Week Waiters!

I can't tell you how many times I visited this site during my TWW and how much it helped to read about people who I could relate to and now it's my turn to contribute!!!

I had a chemical pregnancy 2 cycles ago. I had some early symptoms: increased smell, face break out, nausea, but not too many. It was our first month trying and really sad when AF showed up a week after BFP.

The next cycle we used Pre-Seed and OPK. I was noticing sooo many symptoms (acne, headaches, smells?, vivid dreams, nausea). I could have sworn I was prego. I was noticing every little thing happening with my body and reading into everything.

So that brings us to the 3rd cycle. We used Pre-Seed and OPK again. I had all the same symptoms as last month but realized they were just happening (not necessarily a sign of pregnancy). I started testing around 10 DPO and was getting BFN for days. I thought we were out for sure. I was testing everyday and saving each test. I was expecting AF any minute. Before bed on 13 DPO I just happened to go and look at the tests. Was there a line? No? Yes? Was I seeing things? I could BARELY see something. 14 DPO - same thing. I had been using Wondfo so decided to try a FRER and yes! BFP!!!!! Lines didn't start to get darker until 17DPO.

We are sooo excited. We are crossing our fingers this pregnancy works and for a healthy little one in January!

Good Luck Ladies!!!

Me and my husband have been ttc for 3 cycles. Used Pre-Seed 3rd cycle and BFP first time using it!!! If you haven't tried it I definitely recommend it!! Friend of mine also used it for the first time this cycle and got her BFP too!! Good luck to all ttc and to those who have gotten their BFPs!!
1 dpo- Nothing
2 dpo- Nothing
3 dpo- Breasts began to be sore at sides and acid reflux.
4-7 dpo- Same as above. Sore breasts, acid reflux and gassy. Just felt like a lot of "activity" in my stomach.
8 dpo- same as 4-7 plus this night I felt a throbbing/pulsation feeling around my left ovary. It was like throbbing mild pains every 10-15 seconds for a few minutes then stopped. BFN on $ store test with fmu.
9 dpo- Few cramps throughout the day and breasts sore on sides. Other than that my symptoms had kinda gone away. BFN on $ store test with fmu.
10 dpo- Clear BFP with FRER and fmu!!! No better time to get that much wanted BFP than on Mothers Day!!! BFP later on during the day with EPT digital and $ store tests.
11 dpo- today... Super tired. Light cramps in lower abdomen and light back pain. My breasts are still sore. Not my nipples. Started with the sides of my breasts on 3 dpo and now they are sensitive all over. Not too painful for clothes or a shower like some people describe so don't get discouraged if yours are not that sore. Just painful to the touch and sometimes achy.

A little about myself... I'm 28 and DH is 31. We have been TTC since Dec. (used CBFM) I was getting discourage month after month of BFN!! I stocked this website and told myself I would help others if I would to ever get my BFP!! Here where my symptoms:
Ovulated 4/28- BD every other day after period ended on 4/11.
Cd1- Normal ovulation cramps
Cd2-cd8 - No real symptoms
Cd9- Cramping
Cd-10- Stronger cramping and some CM
Cd11- Bad side pain on my left side and cramping
Cd12- Cramping and sharp pains throughout the day in both breast. Took a test very light line
Cd13- Cramping sharp pains in breast still took a digital test first response-NEGATIVE- I thought I was out by new all these new feelings meant I was PG didn't believe the test- later that afternoon took another test dollar store and sure enough a slight line popped up!!!
Cd14- BFP!!!! Took a digital test with Clear Blue and sure enough Pregant!!! Took 3 other dollar store ones and sure enough a beautiful second line clear as day!!! Trust your body!!

Things I did different- ate pineapple from cd1-5. Used pre-seed on day of O.

Made my doctor appointment for 5/29! So happy!!!!
Baby dust to you all!!! Never give up!!!! Wish for a sticky bean for me!!!!!!!
