I've been not protecting for over 4 years. I started to actively ttc in September. I have just gotten a BFP at 9dpo. I am in absolute shock! I want to post a public service announcement here like so many of you did for me. I did a lot of things different this month. Deep tissue massage of my uterus and ovaries and tubes to break up potential scar tissue/adhesions from my c-section (for first 2 weeks only), agnus castus (vitex) and b12, 6, +folic all month, EPO first 2 weeks of cycle, BD for 4 days leading up to and 3 days after pos. OPK, worked out every 2 days (lifting weights mostly), and pineapple core around implantation. I am an RN and a skeptic at heart and I kept thinking all of these things were bogus but this month I went all out. Lo and behold something worked ;) I am right here with you all. The sorrows, the heartache, and the hope! Keep that hope. Before you know it you'll be where I am!! My luteal phase is usually 11 days and I used Softcups like always again this month.
7 dpo is when anything unusual happened…. Sore sides and bottoms of breasts (HUGE sign--usually it is the whole breasts in LP) and pain in uterus..a little like period cramps and a little bit of digging and a kind of fullness. I remember now I was peeing often, thirsty, and yawning a lot. Neg on HPT haha! I couldn’t wait.
8 dpo- heartburn and reflux (huge sign only get this when PG), creamy green-yellow-whitish stretchy CM, peeing, thirst, and pain in breasts and uterus persist.
9 dpo- only thing new is nausea in waves. Very very pale pos on $ store test. Husband brought home FRER—def pos but pale. OMG!! I am in shock. I thought I was broken and infertile.
