BFP 6/27 w#1
Guest
For all those TTC! May God bless you all and may he bring all those TTC loads of sticky baby dust!
Just to share a little, DH and I have been together for 8 1/2 years and although we haven't been TTC that long, we never used protection since we started being sexually active. We got married in February of this year yet we started actively TTC#1 since October of 2008, so this month was month #9 TTC!
Thankfully this was our month!
I got a BFP this past Saturday (6/27) and DH and I are overjoyed. We cried together of happyness and we are hoping that all goes well and I have a healthy pregnancy!
I just want to tell all of you TTC that it'll happen, I thought I'd never get a BFP!
These are some of the things I did, some are goofy, but I was getting desperate and trying anything.
Had intercourse every day during my fertile period and the day of ovulation, I charted my basal body temperature everyday and used ovulation prediction strips from (early-pregnancy-tests.com) When I got a positive we BD'ed once a day.
Kept my hips elevated after intercourse for about 10 to 15 minutes. I orgasmed every time we did the deed, right after DH did, hoping I'd suck the swimmers into my cervix.
I also heard about an old wives tail about putting a wooden spoon under the bed when TTC - - - crazy I know... but I did it! LOL
I'd rub baby lotion every night before BD just on my hands, arms and neck.
Obviously I kept eating healthy, and had no caffeine, nor alcohol, lots of water, etc
I took 400 mg of Folic Acid Daily since the first day of my period.
Oh yes! DH also is very supersticious and he told me to go to this lady he's heard about that does abdominal massages for fertility, so I went to her. It's somewhat a holistic approach to fertility. (I think these are called Maya Abdominal Massage
Believers in this massage consider that some women may have a block and they consider that block often to be physical. They believe that the uterus can get prolapsed and that their form of massage can help realign it and promote fertility.
This was fairly simple, and it relaxed me and helped me feel good. It DID NOT HURT! I did wear a lumbar support ( I bought at Home Depot) for 2 days and that was a tad bit uncomfortable.
So there you go, that's pretty much what I did!
Ladies, don't lose hope! You too will be blessed with your baby. Just pray, hope, and believe.
Good luck and baby dust!
OH ALSO! I ALREADY HAVE A BOY NAME AND PART OF A GIRL'S NAME PICKED OUT. I NEED HELP WITH THE MIDDLE NAME FOR A GIRL.
I LIKE THE NAME HAILEY, WHAT IS A GOOD MIDDLE NAME THAT WILL FLOW WELL WITH HAILEY?
THANK YOU!
