Okay, so I really hope I'm not tempting fate by writing my success story so early but I wanted to give others I bit of hope!
We've been trying for 4 years and finally saw fs in June 2012. After a year of tests and trying to lose weight (I lost 2 and a half stone) I finally started clomid in June this year.
The first cycle I was totally baby brained and had every symptom related to pregnancy. I was obsessed!! Of course tho it was BFN.
2nd cycle was the complete opposite. I ate and ate and ate a little more (gained 1.5 stone in 3 weeks). Also started smoking again which I had stopped before going to the fs. Enjoyed a few boozy nights out and concentrated on my wedding plans instead of baby making. Didn't track o or temp, just bd every other day for 10 days. Had absolutely no pregnancy symptoms at all and BOOM BFP. Don't even know what dpo I was when I tested.
For 4 whole years every time someone said "relax and it'll happen" I really wanted to slap them but when I tried it myself it actually worked.
So far things are going well. I've had 2 scans which showed 1 healthy beating blob and I couldn't be happier (or more worried).
I have stopped smoking and eating healthily again. Guess I just needed a month of being the unhealthiest and least stressed I've been in 4 years to get my BFP.
Hope this helps someone. I used to love reading success stories thinking that could be me one day (although I'll admit, I used to bypass the ones that said to relax, maybe I should have read those sooner)
Hugs and baby dust to all xxx
