Ladies of GKU,
I'm so excited to say this:
Baby adorebel is coming to a theater near you in March of 2016!
Fun fact, I chose adorebel as my username because MH and I love the names Theodore and Isabel, so we've always thought of our baby as
a Theodore or an Isabel ==> adorebel (andplusalso, s/he's gonna be adorable - we just know it!)
There's a sweetness to getting this BFP just 2 weeks after MH and I marked our loss baby's EDD. I love that this child will be born into a country that's just a little better than before, where love is love.
I've had quite a few symptoms, but some were similar to other months since my loss (including before we even started TTCAL!), so I tried not to get too excited. For example, I've had lots of pulling-type cramps and have started waking up before 5am this week, which happened last time I was KU, but we've been going to 6am boot camp at the gym, so I thought maybe I was just adjusting to the schedule. Then yesterday on the way home from the beach, I felt nauseated and started dry heaving, and when MH touched my boob in the shower last night it felt like flames and I yelped. When I was up again at 5am today, I decided to test (CD1 would have been tomorrow anyway, as I have shortish LPs). I got what I thought was a squinter/hallucination on a wondfo, got back in bed, and woke up an hour later to see it had dried into a very solid line!
Cycle/Month: 4AL/6AL
CD/DPO: 31/10
Timing: -5, -3, O
What we did: BBT, the seks. Also, I had a mild cold during FW, which I also had last time I got KU. Apparently it can improve CM?
EDD: March 10!
Symptoms: Waking up early with fast heartbeat, very sore nips, pricking/pulling in my ute, nausea while driving
How I Told DH: I crawled into bed and showed him the wondfo. Then we agreed I should take a digi. He saw the result come up first and shouted, "Pregnant!" We hugged. We kissed. We had sex. It was awesome. We are elated.
The Mushy Stuff:
When I came here 6 months ago, I was mourning the loss of my son, which was a traumatic and difficult experience. I was depressed and I was scared about TTC again. You ladies have welcomed me in. You have supported me. You have taught me a lot about TTC. Most of all, you've made me smile and laugh every day, during a dark period of my life when I needed that joy and laughter more than ever. I'll miss you and I'll be stopping in to see you often.
Oh, and I hope a whole mess of you end up in March '16.
@sluttybigb00bz {& ETA: @pineappleoranges}, I'm comin' for your BMB!
