Hi everyone! I'm Danielle, and I'm posting today feeling very cautiously excited. My fiancé and I have been together for two years, and we both want children. I've been off the pill for a year now, and for "birth control" we were just casually keeping an eye on my cycles. We were both okay with the idea of me getting pregnant.
A couple months ago I had a very faint positive FRER at 10 dpo, I was having horrible evening nausea by 6-10 dpo, but the test came out negative at 12 dpo and AF arrived the next day.
Yesterday, I tested at 10 dpo because we threw all caution to the wind this month. The positive line was WAY more obvious than it was a couple months ago. I tested again this morning (11 dpo) and the test line was darker still.

I would love for this to really happen, but I can't help but feel like it won't. I want to get excited and jump up and down and plan names and start a Pinterest board and shop for gender-neutral baby clothes and generally go crazy, but I can't. Not yet. In fact, I'm not sure when I'll make that transition from cautiously excited to unreservedly excited.
When did that happen for you? Any advice? I look forward to exploring these forums and getting to know everyone.
