BFP Stories

Early Pregnancy Symptoms and Big Fat Positives

My First Ever BFP!

I have been reading this site religiously for two weeks, and today I get to contribute my own story!

WHAT WE DID:
Used OPKs
Used Pre-seed (small amount) for dry days
BD'd every day for about 8 days ;)
Elevated my hips on a pillow for 20 minutes after sex
Prayed A LOT!

SYMPTOMS:
I really did not have many symptoms until close to the end.
1-8 DPO: Off and on cramping and extra gas
6 DPO: Shooting pain in my lower left abdomen that lasted for several hours and then disappeared.
9 DPO: Feeling tired, but nothing unusual. Already accepting the fact that I am probably not pregnant, and anxious to get started for the next month.
10 DPO: BFN with FMU. Extremely tired and hungry. That night, my breasts started feeling very tender after I took off my bra. I decided to test again. Looked like another BFN, so I left it on the counter and walked off. 3 hours later, I went to the bathroom again, and I realized a tiny faint line had formed on the test! I freaked out (of course), took another test (faint positive again), and make my DH take one (wondfo strips) to make sure I wasn't seeing things. :)
11 DPO: 2 more faint positives with FMU. Bought a FRER test before work and took it at lunch time. A very clear (though still light) line popped up in no time.

Today is 12 DPO, and I have now gotten positives on 4 different brands! The digital is still negative, but I think I should wait to take one after my actual missed period. I am so excited!

Praying for all of you! God is faithful!

This is great news!! I just thought it was funny that you had your dh pee on the stick! My guy would've freaked out and asked me if I were crazy hahaha. Best wishes to you lovely and I pray that you have a sticky bean!

Thank you so much for the sweet and encouraging words! As far as DH, he already knows I'm crazy, so it was just business as usual! ;)
