Cycle/Month: 9/9
CD/DPO: 27/12
EDD: Sept. 7th
What we did: Sex -2, O.
Symptoms: None at all, really. I have been feeling like my period was about to start for the last few days- just the general crampiness that I get for a few days before. I tested Saturday at 10DPO only because I planned on drinking a lot that night and wanted to make sure it was safe, but really thought I'd have my period in the next few days. I looked 20 minutes later and saw a faint line on a Wondfo but thought it was maybe just an evap line, so I tried two more Wondfos and saw very faint lines on both. I headed to CVS and got an FRER, and saw a definite line! Since then all tests have been positive, although faint. I am excited but trying to be realistic as well, since it is still so early and I still do feel exactly like my period is about to start.
How I told DH: We had a family Christmas Saturday afternoon and I didn't want to tell him right before that, and then he was leaving to spend time with his cousins until last night. I wanted to wait until we would have some time alone so I told him last night. He was very excited about our ugly Christmas sweaters this year and we had pictures in them, so I printed out a picture of us in them and put it in a card. On the card I wrote "Next year we are going to need 3 sweaters...
" I also picked out a Christmas sweater for a newborn at Target and put that in a gift bag to give with the card. He was so excited! He is already making lists of everything he wants to get done around the house before September.
The mushy stuff: I honestly don't know if I would be writing this without all the knowledge this board gave me. I started as a lurker on TD and followed the exodus to TCF, and started posting back in January. Before then I had no idea about temping, LPs, when or how long a fertile window is, or really anything about cycles. I learned SO MUCH from you all, and I will always be grateful for how supportive everyone here is. There are so many smart, funny, and truly caring people on GKU- thank you for letting me be a part of the board! You have all made me laugh so much and you can bet I will always be lurking I hope to see sooooo many of you on the September BMB!
With love to you all,
Pinkcat
