Aloha from Hawaii Ladies
My husband and I made the decision to throw out my BC in August of 2013. By September I received my first cycle and in October, after realizing I missed my AF, I found out I was pregnant. I was supposed to start on 18 Oct but it wasn't until the 25th that I finally got a positive HPT. My pregnancy lines were very faint however, so hard to see I thought I was imagining them. But as the days went on, the lines finally got darker and I was beyond happy considering we weren't exactly charting or anything. On 10 November I miscarried...I guess in hindsight, I remember my symptoms suddenly began slowing down. I even recall waking up one morning feeling empty. I can't say how far along I was because based on my last period it would have been 8 weeks. At the time though, my HCG levels were halted at 40 and when I had blood work done at the starting point of pregnancy I had levels of 28. Maybe a Chemical Pregnancy? I MC quickly and naturally, with no complications and got my AF in December like clockwork. We were given the "ok" to try again whenever we felt ready.
This will be our first cycle TTC since the miscarriage and I have been charting everything except BBT. I also don't use OPKs since I know when I ovulate thanks to Mittelschmerz. I O'd on 30 Dec and we did the BD once a night on 25, 26, 28 & 29 Dec. I am currently 7 DPO with no symptoms other than breast tenderness which has been off and on since ovulation so I don't really count that. Not sure of what my chances are but I'm hoping for a good BPF this time
Symptoms from my first pregnancy were: Dull contraction-like cramping, extreme hunger, sore nipples and breasts, bloating, increased restless leg syndrome and occasional acne.
