Pregnancy Info HOME

Hopeful, I had to look up BFP (forgot the terminology).....I don't have alot of time but wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS I couldn't be happier for you..what a blessing!!!!!!!! OMG I am freaking out for you that is the best news I have heard!!! I wish you ALL THE BEST in your pregnancy!!! XO Kristin

Kristin - great to hear from you. Thanks for your congratulations. I'm still feeling ecstatic - I'm much more positive about this one! Let us all know some good news from your side soon. Hugs!

I'm feeling good because ... I got my bfp. My hopes for an "April Baby" ... looks like it's going to come true for us : ) : ) : ) Best of all well wishes to everyone : ) : ) : )

Good News all around...I am so happy for you too Sann. What great news!! I just remember the feelings I had when I found out just two months post D&C that I was pregnant again!! Pregnancy is such a miracle and miracles happen everyday we just have to be patient. All the Best!!!..and take care of yourself! I am now in my 27th week!!! 13 to go!!
Take Care, Kristin

I am feeling good because I had a healthy and HUNGRY child at 42 years of age. After worrying for months during my pregnancy, it is wonderful to finally be able to hold my daughter and tell her how much she is loved!

What a great thread! I'm so happy for you Hopeful and excited, and, as the timing of my story seems to be mirroring your own (from April on), I'm hoping that mine will work out as well as yours seems to be - although there's one big difference: I am too terrified to test, so am waiting to see if I miss my next AF (bled a smidge at last one but am so tired of BFNs that I want something more compelling than a skanty "period", crabbiness, drooliness, and tender nips to go by - all of which could have other causes!) ... I will avoid getting into the psychological implications of that, though - even though SO much is pointing to "we did it right this time!", nothing is so completely textbook that I haven't stopped telling myself it's all in my head! Even if I do get my BFN (AF would come next week), I'll still be checking in here for all your happy stories, with the hope of posting my own before long!!! Did anybody else feel the same trepidation about testing? ... Like they'd rather NOT test and still have HOPE than test and get another BFN? On a positive note (only a wannabe preggo would call it that!), I've had to start coupling the button of my pants with a rubber band for comfort (sexy!) - but they still fit just fine everywhere else!!! Best wishes to all!

HappyMe: Congratulations!!!! You sound very happy and sounds like your baby is going to get a lot of love--lucky baby! Bimko: I remember the feeling. Even though my cyles were very regular and I was really hoping for a BFP, I still waited for 5 days after my AF was due to even test because I wanted to enjoy the moment of excitement & possibility that I was pregnant. Sure enough I did see a BFP. ****I'm happy because I was so afraid I'd never make it this far along but it's now 27w 2d for me which means I'm officially in 3rd trimester!!!! How quickly time has gone by!

A pleasure to meet you Perl! Congratulations on reaching your third trimester! You must be so relieved to have the end in sight - before you know it you'll be cuddling that beautiful, healthy baby!!! You know why I'm feeling good today? Because, despite my concerns that I'm not feeling any of the same textbook early preggo stuff that I felt the first time (at least not consistently enough to be convincing), I keep chipping away at new and different things! The only tangible thing I've experienced so far has been a notably elevated temp for the last 6 weeks (never went down after my last known O - have I mentioned I'd be at 7w, 4d, assuming I've figured correctly?), but last night, getting dressed for bed I had to do a double-take in the mirror -- my bbs looked like a streetmap with all these blue superhighways running all over - some even bulging out from the under the skin! ... Well THAT's new! ...And, even better, I'm not sure what other condition I might be able to chalk something like that up to, which just narrows the pregnancy possibility down that much further! A smidge of relief - the more symptoms I feel, the fewer concerns I have about getting the BFN! (Although I'm still gonna wait the extra week!) ... I guess I'll be watching my bbs carefully all weekend - something I haven't done in a good 25 years!!! My Mr. should get a chuckle out of that...!

Yaaay, Bimko--for the blue veins on the bbs--very good sign. So you'll be testing in one week? Good luck to you and please give an update if you're up to it.

I am just happy that I have reached 200 days of pregnancy..what a milestone..also my birthday is on Monday, Sept 4th. What a blessing pregnancy is despite a lingering headache I have had. Wishing you all a Happy Labour Day weekend!! Kristin :)

This is the sweetest thread I've seen so far! Reading through all the posts has been wonderfully uplifting for me. I feel great because I have the most considerate dh ever and we have been blessed with a son and are trying for one more child. TTC for 2 years in January, but I know that God does things in his own time so I try to wait graciously. Super congrats to all those who have received their BFP and prayers and happiness to those who are anxiously awaiting their little miracles. Thanks to all for the joy you spread and for all the happy thoughts, you can really feel them when you come on this thread! Baby dust!!

"Baby dust" ... that is the sweetest wish! Right back at you Frances! Well, no BFP for me this time, but hey, I get to look forward to a whole new month of BDing! (Still just starting out, it's not too much like work for me yet!) Plus I know it's going to happen soon enough, so I'm still able to enjoy the anticipation and wonder of "gee, if it worked this time, our baby-bits should be doing this today or should be this big today"... I'm going to just keep looking for those signs beyond the shadow of a doubt (although I can't explain the crazy blue veins still present on the bubbs) - I never thought I would ever look so forward to a face-first go at the toilet! Best of luck to all!

Because I'm 8 weeks today!! Hooray! So pleased to have got this far and still have "lovely" (LOL!!) symptoms to keep up my confidence. Looking forward every day - especially to food and the 2nd Trimester!!! (LOL!!) Yipppppppeeeeeeeee! Where are all you happy thinkers?

I'm feeling good because I only have about a month and a half left until I can finally get comfortable wherever I sit or lie down again! The pains in my hips, legs, and back with finally be gone. The agony of acid reflux will finally halt! And my husband can finally get a full nights rest without hearing me snore. (Instead he'll be awoken by a crying baby) haha. Anyways, I look forward to being able to walk instead of waddle. To not crave cherry Twizzlers would be nice too. I am happy because I have all these things to look forward to soon...and of course the best thing is to hold my wee one and make her smile. =)

Because today is the day I have given up dwelling and obsessing over when to bd etc. gave back my friend her fertility monitor and placed it all in Gods hands. Finally dawned on me, its in His timing and not in my control.....what a relief I feel.

Lovemy3: someone I know personally did exactly what you've just done--she threw away all the predictor equipment and left it up to God & nature. She became pregnant soon after that. But the most important thing is that she and her husband were willing to accept whatever happened next and both of them were very much at peace with whatever the future held for them. She explained her feeling of relief and peace too--sounds like that's a good place to be. Whatever happens I hope you'll be very blessed! Stay in touch.
