Hey ladies. I've spent countless hours on this site, and I finally get to post my success story here. My fiance and I have been TTC for 3 cycles now and I got my BFP 3 days ago. This is our third cycle trying, but it was our first cyle using soft cups. These things really work! I was using the clear blue ovulation kit and got my smiley face on Sunday June 5th so I likely O'd on Monday June 6th. We used soft cups after BD that Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday just to be safe. I would put one in that night after BD and would keep it in until morning. After BD I would also prop myself up on a pillow and stay lying down for at least 30 minutes before getting up to use the restroom and get ready for bed. I also drank 1 cup of pineapple juice every day after O because I read somewhere that it was supposed to help with implantation. Probably just an old wives tale, but I was desperate and willing to try just about anything. So, here are my symptoms leading up to my BFP:
1-3 DPO: Nothing out of the ordinary.
4 DPO: Started having minor cramping. Broke down in tears at work and even cried in front of my boss. I couldn't make it stop!! It was like there was no off switch. I knew something was up. Feeling SUPER bloated and OMG the gas! Also, lotion like CM...lots of it.
6 DPO: Had a sharp pain in the morning and something told me that that may have been implantation. I told my fiance this and he looked at me like I was crazy. I told him I think we did it...I think this is going to be our month. He was skeptical as he didn't want to get his hopes up like we had the previous 2 months only to be disappointed. Later that evening I noticed that I could smell everything. My fiance ate a pizza at the movie theater and when he leaned in to kiss me I could smell the milk from the cheese on his lips! Also, more lotion like CM...lots of it.
7 DPO: More cramping, head ache, and craving Ketchup and tomatoes. NEVER EVER eat ketchup on my eggs because I think it's DISGUSTING, but went to IHOP with the fiance and put ketchup on my eggs. Also, got emotional when the fiance made a joke about my weight. I wouldn't talk to him and started feeling HUGE even though I was in a size XS dress that day...I knew I was being ridiculous!
8 DPO: I wasn't going to test until 10 DPO, but that morning I broke down and took a First Response HPT. I saw a very very very faint line. I had taken dozens of these tests the past 2 months and there was never a second line...not even a faint one. I wasn't going to tell the fiance yet, but just couldn't help myself. Brought the test into work and showed one of my girlfriends. She said it was faint, but she definitely saw a line. I went home after work and couldn't resist taking another one at 4 pm. The line was darker!! I could even take a picture of it (my camera phone wouldn't pick up the faint line on the first test) and sent it to everyone asking if they saw the line. I went out and bought a digital test to take the next morning.
9 DPO: When I woke up in the morning I knew I was pregnant! Had a pounding headache and nausea. Took the digital test first thing in the morning and got a YES+. Went in and got blood work that same day and the test results confirmed it. BFP!!!!
The only thing we did differently was using the softcups and drinking pineapple juice. I swore I would share my story as soon as I got my BFP. GOOD LUCK LADIES!!!!
