I downloaded and followed an ovulation calender and my husband and I stuck to it.  We officially started trying in February. I wasn't even sure I could get pregnant so the fact that it happened by month 2 is amazing!  I was ovulating on April fools day and we joked that would be the day we conceived. However I really think it was.  After intercourse I never got up to use the bathroom. In fact I fell asleep and did not get up til the next morning. I think that did the trick.  My period was due on April 14 and when I did not get it come Friday and boobs were killing me and I was always hot. I knew something must be up  I took a test Saturday am and it was a faint line.  Took another Sunday and the faint line was slightly darker.  I recommended for sanity do not purchase the line tests. The faint lines drove me nuts.  I went to the store and got a digital test that's states the word pregnant. Clear blue easy.  When that confirmed I went to the DR and behold I was prego!   Soo happy.  And scary at the same time.  The first trimester is very nerve racking with all the things that could go wrong.   Good luck to all you ladies.  Keep positve thoughts for the early weeks for me:)

soo exciting!! Lucky you!!!! Now we all. Now we all come in this forum for tips and advice on conceiving so if you could tell us:
-how long did you try to conceive before the bfp?
- was this done naturally or did you need iui or ivf?
- did you try something special to conceive just for extra chances such as legs in the air etc?
- and finally did you have any noticeable symptoms before testing positive and if so which ones?
Again l, congrats!
