I'm Pregnant!
When you found out you were pregnant, how long did you wait until you told dad-to-be? How did you tell him and was he the first person you told? Did everyone react as you expected?
Finally a BFP!

I finally got a + pregnancy test after 8 months of trying! I did a whole lot of different things this cycle which I am thinking may have helped. Either that or I just got lucky.
I began taking the following herbs - Don Quai, Red Raspberry Leaf Tea and Vitex. I also cut out caffeine after O and dtd in the morning and afternoon rather than in the evening. I read somewhere that sperm are in better condition in the morning than the evening. I also started over the counter progesterone cream after O because I had been spotting in my LP since TTC in Sept 09'.
I had distinct pinching pains on 7DPO and then on 10DPO symptoms started appearing. When I test on 13DPO the symptoms had intensified and I got a faint positive on an internet test strip.
1-5DPO headache, mild cramping and bloating
6-7DPO AF like cramping that was pretty intense, three pinching sensations in quick succession on 7DPO, bloating and gas.
8-9DPO bloating, gas
10DPO sensitive nipples, headache, bloating, gas, fatigue
11DPO-12DPO sensitive nipples, increase breast size (slight), fatigue (yawning all day), hungry, headache on and off, slight nausea when hungry, thirsty, dizzy spells
13DPO BFP! Husband saw the line get darker. Same symptoms with some anxiety because I got pg!
14-16DPO same symptoms as before but had spotting on 14DPO (day AF should have arrived) and boobs are getting bigger and sorer and am very hungry with dizzy spells and night sweats.
