BFP with Preseed

I got my BFP at 7DPO (I know, crazy early!) during our 4th month TTC. We used Pre-Seed for the first time this cycle...and it seemed to do the trick!

1DPO - Nothing
2DPO - Heavy bloating, light AF type cramping and heavy/painful breasts
3DPO - Noticing acne, which I never get until I'm very close to AF
4DPO - Had a dizzy spell which was my first clue that I might be pregnant and then went running and felt extremely tired (I'm an avid runner so this was unusual)
5DPO- Gums bleeding after brushing my teeth and my teeth hurt all day, felting pain/burning sensation in nipples
6DPO - Woke up in the middle of the night and felt sick to my stomach and could not fall back asleep (this is very rare for me, I ALWAYS sleep through the night), had AF type cramping all day, and light nausea
7DPO - Very faint pos on FRER in the AM and a bit of a darker pos on FRER in the afternoon (couldn't believe it showed so early!) Also, I was burping a lot all day, which was odd for me
8DPO - Positive on Clear Blue Digital!

I cannot believe I got a BFP so early! I am a twin, so maybe twins? Who knows!

Also something else we did differently this cycle (in addition to Pre-Seed) was start BDing earlier than 10 days after day one of AF, we started on day 8 and continued every other (day 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 and 18).

I am 40 years old (DH 49) and have been inspired daily by this site, I swore I will write my success story if I ever got one. So here it goes... My husband and I were diagonsed with unexplained infertilty, we've been married for 3 and a half years and tried everything! I had 2 IUI with negavive results and 3 IVF/ ICSI again with negative results - It has hard but I would try every month, when we could, because I knew there was supposedly nothing wrong with me or his sperm sample. And every month we tried, nothing! I recently saw a new doctor to do an HSG exma to make sure my tubes weren't blocked, it was the most agonizing thing I've ever done but luckily I had no blocked tubes! The doctor decided to put me on Clomid 50 mg BID (because I didn't want to pursue IVF now as we were not ready financially) from days 2-6 then trigger shot at CD 13. I went ahead and did that and BD CD days 13, 14 and 15 with Pre-Seed and Softcups and prayed and prayed and prayed.... Well at 13 DPO I took a FRER and got a very faint positive, I was worried because it was so faint I knew my HCG levels must be really low. I went to my doctor and did a Beta HCg level and it came up at 84!! WE are officially pregnant!!!!

Symptoms:

3-4 DPO - Tired and sleepy (could be due to the trigger shot)
5-12 DPO - Nothing unusual except low back pain which I never get and waking up in the middle of the night to pee from 8DPO another unusual thing for me and sore nipples
13 DPO - Faint postivite with FRER sore nipples, backache continues...
14 DPO - Beta HCG 84!!!! We are in shock and over the moon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For all the women out there who thought they are too old like I secretly did, please dont loose hope, God will give you your miracle in His time, He does listen and when he knows you are ready, your prayers will be granted. Keep praying and dont stop trying! God Bless all the women here and baby dust to you all!!!

Wanted to post as I have stalked this site EVERY month for reassurance! I don't chart, temp or use OPKs, I just go by CM, CP and the calendar and this is second month using Pre-Seed. Wasn't paying too much attention this month (having a fed up month!!) so all dates and symptoms are just recollections but they might help someone :-) This month only BD'd twice but I KNEW they were bang on the right time, I have a 26-28 cycle and we did it approx cd9 and cd11. Lots of lotiony CM in the week that followed, then about ten days prior to expected Af got REALLY sore boobs, like I could walk fast let alone run without agony and taking off my bra at night was torture! Last weekend (cd20ish) we were in car and I got cramps so told hubby that I thought we were out for this month. The cramps continued but were more fleeting and superficial somehow than normal af cramps. Then on cd25ish I had red watery spotting in undies (hadn't 'felt' it like with af so was shocked to see it) but immediately thought it was game over for this month. Wore sanitary towels for the next week waiting for the full flow to hit and it never did, spotting just went brown and stopped within a day, got faint positive with evening urine on cd30 and another with fmu today cd31!!! Had a few waves of nausea this week too :-) Good luck everyone!

I just turned 40 in December, DH 38. I have a DS 13, got pregnant 2 months TTC. And DS 3 took 7 months TTC. Went off BC pills in September '12 and had a chemical pregnancy in November. I noticed that my cycles and luteal phase seemed to be getting shorter, just by a couple of days and that I was having lots of luteal phase spotting. Started to wonder if my progesterone might be a little low. My husband and I had already decided that we would not seek any type of fertility treatment and that if it didn't happen naturally, it wasn't meant to be for us. We both felt already very blessed with our two boys and number 3 would just be icing on the cake.

So to the Internet I went and for the last two cycles I have been taking 100 mg of B6 with 500 mcg of B 12. Also 1000 mg Vit C and a baby aspirin daily along with my regular prenatal. My cycle lengthened to my normal 28 days with a 14 day luteal phase. My spotting decreased last month, though I still had it for 2 days.

So on to this month. I O'd on CD 14. BD'd on CDs 9,11,13 and 14. Used Pre-Seed. I believe in it! I also used OPKs and charted my BBT. During the previous 5 months I have symptom spotted like crazy. Cramps, sore bbs, chills, nausea, dizziness. This month I had almost no symptoms. No sore bbs at all. I had a little bit of cramping 10 and 11 dpo along with the tiniest amount of light pink spotting.

I got my BFP today at 12dpo with a FRER. It was somewhat faint, but no doubt about it. I have never tested this early before so I expect it will get darker in a day or two. It is definitely darker than the line I had with my chemical pregnancy at 14dpo, so I am hopeful.

Good luck to everyone! Don't lose hope!

WOW...so excited to write here, although I'm hesitant b/c of my history, I have had such a long road to get my BFP that I'm still going to share my story, no matter how hesitant I am!!!!

I have 2 children who have been labeled miracle children. Due to the fact that it has been discovered that I'm pre-menopausal at 30 (whaaaat!!!) and I only ovulate maybe twice a year normally. All the other months I either don't ovulate or my eggs are released wayyyy too early and can never survive a pregnancy! So the fact that I have 2 other children, conceived ALL natural is huge miracle!!! Along with my crazy ovulation pattern I have also miscarried 5 times :( My RE is convinced that this is due to immature eggs trying to survive & just can't and also the quality of the eggs. Both DH and I have had our chromosomes tested and everything else under the sun!! All was good!

In July of 2012 I got pregnant and m/c'd (again) in August! I was heartbroken...I really had convinced myself that I couldn't possibly m/c this time.....:( We then actively tried for 5 months (Im talking obsessed trying) & nothing was happening, except in Dec. when I had yet another m/c (chemical pregnancy)! After that my OB referred me to a fertility specialist. I wasn't completely sold on this idea b/c my insurance didn't cover any of it...but looking back now, I WISH I would have done that sooner!!! During the month of January is when we figured out what was going on with my body and in February we started my regiment!

They put me on 100mg of Clomid from CD 3-7. I had a follicle check on CD 11 & had 4 awesome follicles!! 3 on right ovary (measuring 18mm, 18mm, 18mm & 21mm) and one on the left ovary (18mm). They trigger shot me that day and DH & I Bd'ed the day of trigger and then 3 days after!! After 4 days the TTW was already killing me so I decided to test out the trigger. My line got lighter and lighter until 11 DPT (10 DPO) when the line looked darker......hhmmmm......I continued to test and it continued to get darker...but I wasn't convinced! Yesterday I took another and there was no denying the line. So I called my OB and they got me right in for blood work!!

They called me back later in the day and said "YOUR PREGNANT"!!!! WHOOO HOOO!!! My HCG (at 12 DPO) was 50 and my progesterone is 79!!!!!!!!!!! I go back tomorrow to make sure my numbers are doubling (please lord...please lord...DOUBLE)!! Although I'm super excited, I'm super super SCARED!! 7 pregnancies and only 2 children puts a bad taste in my mouth :( But I'm going to try to stay positive! I'm hoping the clomid also enhanced my egg quality as well!!!

Other things I did was: Baby aspirin, Pre-Seed, Clomid, Trigger Shot, dye test (make sure tubes are clear)

Symptoms: Not a lot. Except tired, hungry, coffee started to taste YUCK (and I loooove coffee) & my bathroom visits increased

I will update on tomorrow's blood draw and anyone going through a struggle HANG IN THERE!!! I have had so many heartbreaks and FINALLY a BFP (although that's only half my battle)

We found out yesterday at 11dpo that I am pregnant (4 days before af was due). This was our 3rd cycle trying, and we also for the first time used Pre-Seed this month, I have also been taking vitamin B6 daily.

0-3dpo - Nothing out of the ordinary.
4dpo - Tender boobs, headache, stuffy nose, sore throat, extremely tired, increased cm.
5dpo - Felt like I had the start of a uti, dry mouth, awful cold, tender boobs.
6dpo - Cramps, gas, Tender boobs, chills / hot flashes, increased white cm.
7dpo - Cramps / stabbing pains in ovary area, tender boobs, bleeding gums, watery cm.
8dpo - Tender boobs, headache, stuffy nose, fatigue, increased appetite.
9dpo - Tender boobs, boobs seem bigger, cramps, gas, stuffy nose, fatigue (fell asleep twice during the day), chills / hot flashes.
10dpo - Tender boobs, gas, cramps, stuffy nose, fatigue, watery cm, nauseous.
11dpo - Tender boobs, cramps, backache, very nauseous in the morning, watery cm, I just felt different = BFP.

I took 4 tests (I couldn't believe it) 2 Asda own brand, and 2 clearblue digital which advised I am 2-3 weeks pregnant!!

Good luck and baby dust to everyone :-D XXX

Hi Everyone,

I am so excited to post on here!

Every month I was a chronic symptom spotter.... and every month I had convinced myself I was pregnant, only to be disappointed when AF showed up.

This month, I was so disappointed...because I didn't have ANY symptoms. NOTHING.

The only thing that happened to me is I got a terrible cold about 7 dpo, I had a fever, running nose, sore throat... the whole bit. I was convinced that this would ruin my chances of getting pregnant.

I counted myself out. I thought surely I would have some sort of symptom before a HPT.

I decided to take a hpt before going away for the weekend with some friends... just in case. (I didn't want to be drinking if I was)

To my astonishment it was positive. It was so faint, I then convinced myself it was an EVAP line. I decided id test again in the morning..... Another BFP.

Just goes to show, that sometimes there are no symptoms or signs.

Today I got my bfp! I am still In shock. I was truly not expecting it. I am almost 36 years old, have been trying for 5 months, and this will be our second child. My son is 6 years old. I am on cycle day 29 and my cycles are between 28-30 days. We have been using Pre-Seed and ovulation predictor tests each month. This month we bd the day before my positive ovulation test, the day of, skipped a day then did it one last time. I did elevate my hips after each time for about 15 minutes.
I decided that this month I was not going to stress over it and get my hopes up like I have all of the other months. I did not track symptoms because I have had so many symptoms in the past that led to disappointment. Anytime my mind would start to think about pregnancy I would think about something else and keep myself busy. I wasn't noticing any symptoms at all so I was really able to just let it go. For the last 2 days I have been having my typical PMS symptoms. The only thing a tiny bit different has been more moodiness then my usual pms. I also never drink soda and have been craving it a ton! Other than that nothing!! I thought I was out because of no symptoms. People have so many symptoms on here so I figured I would have some too. So hopefully That will encourage some of you. Don't lose hope if you don't feel pregnant. My advice would be to do your "trying" then get on with life, keep busy, and don't let your mind take over! It is torture. I really didn't stress this month. It was a nice break. I wish you all the best as you TTC. Blessings !

I know it would probably sound silly to some people that am sooooo excited to be pregnant again being that its my fifth pregnancy and I have two children already... but God has been faithful as my last MC was at 20 weeks and almost cost me my life and womb... but today I am pregnant... so Praise God!....
Well down to the juicy bit of what I did or didn't do this cycle after trying for a few cycles (apart from lots of prayer)....
I have a 28 day average cycle,
cd1-9..... had my period and tried monitoring my cm
cd10... started doing opks
cd16... I got what seemed like a close enough positive on an IC (Internet cheapie)
cd17... bought a different brand of opk from the local superdrug store, got a good looking positive opk (but got positives for several days after that got worried and got clearblue opk and got a negative at about cd 18 or cd19, which meant that maybe the superdrug one was too sensitive and could not be relied on)
This made me wonder if the 'almost positive' I got with the IC was the real deal or if I didn't O at all. Plus I usually get abdo pains to the side where the egg is coming from, this cycle the abdo pains where almost not there as if it only happened when I imagine it, as for my cm they haven't been a very reliable marker so I used preseed this cycle from around cd11.
So being that I had slight abdo pains around the time when I should but got a positive opk about two days later, I assumed that I O'ed after the first positive opk with the IC.
1dpo-9dpo nothing different or special happened. I only had a few twinges on my left abdo side and boobs off and on. I almost always thought I imagined it anyway.
10dpo... I came down with a very bad flu, high fevers, nausea, but a bit hungrier, runny and blocked nose. I began to count my self out. just stuck to taking paracetamol as a part of me kept the hope alive that I might be pregnant.
11dpo.... did a hpt test (clearblue) with fmu, bfn... felt bad....... later that day using an IC hpt got a very very very faint, squint-to-see positive.
got confused...
12 dpo.... bought different tests and OMG! it was bfp... Praise God!
about 14dpo -16dpo when my period was supposed to come I have the implantation bleed, brown spotting for two days, it came with some membrane like discharge (sorry tmi). then it stopped.

So what did I do different this cycle, I prayed more, did more exercise and lost some weight, improved my diet to be healthier, no alcohol except the glass I had with DH on valentines day, absolutely no caffeine swapped tea for twinnings fruity teas, used preseed.
DH and I are soooo excited, may our joy bless as many homes that rejoice with us, opening the doors to your heart desires! baby dust and Gods grace to you all!....

Me 36 and my fiance 41 decided last Nov. to try for a baby.... well I got my BFP let me break down my symptoms (I'm typing on a smartphone so please excuse any errors)

I have a normal 28-31 day cycle, the last 3 months we didn't try anything other then BD around the time I think I O'd. I've never noticed any EWCM and read that sperm doesn't do well w/out it. So this month i brought an OpK and some Pre-Seed. We baby danced the morning of positive OPK and the day after.

Cd 14 bd...positive opk
Cd 15 bd... O'd I especially felt this one
1-4 dpo nothing really
5 dpo crampy
6dpo crampy
7 dpo crampy ....boobs getting sore
8 dpo crampy, sore boobs
9 dpo bfn crampy, sore boobs
10 dpo bfn crampy, sore boobs
11 dpo bfn with first response with fmu. Very very faint bfp with cheap blue dye family dollar test. I had another dollar tree test and took it a few hours later, a stronger but still very faint positive. I preceded to spend hours on the computer reading about how bad these test where. So I didn't get my hopes up. I bought two digital test, bfn that night and bfn 12 dpo fmu. After all of the studying about blue dye test... I came to the conclusion that I was pg but the digital didn't pick it up yet.

12 DPO hungry! Not pms cravings, but straight up HUNGRY. Peeing every hour on the hour, my boobs are killing me! Picked up a FRER test after work and got a very nice positive... no squinting!

I really thought i was out this month... I have been battling a bad tooth infection all month and taking tons of antibiotics. Two days ago I developed a bad abscess on that tooth. I thought no way I could conceive through all that! But sure enough.... I did.

To everyone on this site...you have all touched me in so many ways. I'm praying for your BFP's
