Now I know why I was barely makin' it...WOW!
SO I recently posted about feeling so tired I could hardly move. Well, I came home yesterday and said hey why not. I'll go ahead and take the test, what can it hurt? I turned my back for a second and when I turned back around the test already had 2 lines. I said this cant be right, it's too soon to test positive. Our ovulation days were Sept 21 & 22 and we're only 11 DPO. So needless to say I pulled the other test out of the box and took it, low and behold I had another positive result. A chill ran down my spine and I was speechless. Half of it was excitement and the other have was pure FEAR. Then I stopped and thought about all of the ladies on this forum that I've been reading about and chatting with and suddenly I didn't feel worthy. Some of you ladies have been trying for a long time and here I am the 1st time out the gate and got exactly what I asked for. It's truly a humbling experience. After I talked to the hubby he was so happy it made all of my fears subside, and I was able to cherish the moment.
So to all of you ladies trying, especially you with the early symptoms NO your mind isn't playing tricks on you, I'm a living witness that God is still in the blessing business. Now I just need to put aside the fear of my 1st doctor's visit and him telling me something is wrong like in the past. I'll continue to pray for you guys and I ask you to pray for me, b/c I will definitely need pray to get thru these next "9 MONTHS"!!!! I'll keep you updated!

Hey girls! Shannon125 I know exatly how you feel about this forum. I don't have a lot of friends in the area we live in. I never knew coming on the website would be such a good thing! It hurts me to see so many other womem struggling with problems, but it has also showed me I'm not alone. You women have been such wonderful support & great people to talk to. I don't get along with a lot of girls in my area (I'll be 23 in early Nov) & girls my age are into partying & stuff I got over at 19. I'm very thankful I've met all of you on here. I know prayerful wife is going to be wonderful mom to this new baby! Shannon don't give up hope, your time will come(I think I'm preaching to myself also)! If any of you are ever in Florida, make sure you visit West Palm Beach (I we to highschool there & it is so beautiful) & also Destin Beach,that's where we live now & it's so pretty here!
Thank you ladies! I just made my 1st appointment but it wont be until Oct 15th, hopefully they can squeeze me in before then. I just want some blood work done to be sure the numbers are where they should be. I went to family planning when I got off work yesterday just to have them reconfirm the test. I told myself I will not spend another dime on HPT...I know the people at Walgreens think I'm a damn maniac! As soon as I took the test about 60secs later the nurse popped her head in the door and said yes ma'am you are pregnant as soon as the urine hit the stick it started to show up. So that gave me a little relief. Now that man is fussing at me about my stilettos I told him one day at a time. You just dont snatch the pacifier from the baby you have to ween him off. :)
But yes ma'am I do know how those vaginal ultrasounds can be...I'm normally thinking to myself this tech is all in my pudding and I dont even know his last name, now I know my mama taught me better then that. :) The good thing about her not feeling any large cysts is that if you do have any small ones normally they'll dissolve when you have a period and not have a healthy blood flow to keep them thriving. So see, he's working it out for you already. I was just telling AngelF that when she gets her BFP that her 1st pack of pampers is on me...So I'll tell you the same thing. Start picking out your names and thinking about how you'll decorate the nursery, b/c your blessing is right around the corner! I know it'll be hard to use a OPK b/c your cycles are so long, but invest in some anyway just to gage when ovulation occurs for you. I cant wait to see the post that says you got your BFP!

Thank you so much for the kind words of encouragement. It honestly means more to me than you could imagine. I think finding this forum was one of the best things about this whole process. It helped me realize that I am not alone and that there are women out there that genuinely care about the well being of another woman whom they've never even met. It's actually been a humbling experience to read about all of the struggles that women have been through and to read about how strong these women are to have overcome them. I know that it will happen when the time is right and I know this because I have faith; and I thank you for helping me realize that as well.
I just wanted to give you some words of encouragement. Don't lose hope or faith. Our Lord is good & he WILL provide. With God NOTHING is impossible. If you want a baby, ask Jesus for it in faith. He is the MIRACLE man. He can do ANYTHING he wants just because He is God & he is good. Just keep trying, hold your head up, cling to your faith. It will happen when the time is right & it will be worth it. I'll keep you in my prayers. I wish you the best of luck.
I actually went to the doctor's on Monday and have to go again this Tuesday for another transvaginal U/S. (This will be my 6th in 3 months). I'm sure you are aware of how unpleasant those are!!! Anyhow, when the doc did the exam she said she did not feel any large cysts inside but wanted the U/S to make certain. She told me that all of the symptoms I had this month that were all very similar to pregnancy symptoms were probably just the Endo and the fact that I was just having a bad cycle. I was sad because for me the symptoms are so similar that it's impossible not to get your hopes up each time. But she did say that she doesn't think I will have a problem conceving and because of my diagnosis and my cycles being so damn long (42 days); that she said if I don't become pregnant after 6 months than she will start running the appropriate tests and see what to do from there. I was happy about that because most women have to try for a year before they can even be looked at for fertility issues. So I will just keep at it and hopefully I will have some exciting news to post soon. Again congrats and you are in my prayers.
I praying for you. In the name of Jesus your fear will be gone. Fear is not of the Lord, the enemy is trying to attack you. I pray that you have a very healthy, wonderful pregnancy. Congrats to you.
I just found out that I am pregnant! I started trying last month and walla...it happened. I am scared because I have a history of MC. I have had three MC's and one tubal that ended in a MC. I was blessed with two beautiful children in between my MC's, it was such a hard road though. I keep praying that this one will stay, and will implant where it is supposed to. I just can't waite to see the doctor and he tells me that he/she is right where their supposed to be and there is a heartbeat. Ugh...its so hard to clam my fears. I can't find it in me to be elated, I only have fear. It is also hard when they want me to talk a prenatal class...I have been pregnant 7 times...I think I can do without the class this time...lol
Thank you so much. I called my mom and told her this morning and now my phone has rung every 10 minutes with my aunts and cousins calling to say congrats. I was a little nervous about announcing it SO EARLY, but I know that the power is in his hands and ALL things are possible as long as I trust and believe! My husband was in Wisconsin last night and all of a sudden I get a call at work saying "baby I just came home to cook you dinner, rub your feet, run you a bath, and I'm getting back on the road. So I cant wait to get home and let him look at BOTH test sticks for himself. I was wondering how things were going with you. Don't give up trying its so worth it. Have you had a chance to speak to your doctor about trying and what he recommends? Thanks again, and I will keep you guys updated and let you know when I start popping out of my slacks and into the spandex!!! I cant wait.
Congratulations! I am truly happy for you. We had talked back and forth about Endo a few days back. I can't believe how exciting this is. This also gives me hope now because we have a similar diagnosis and you did it!!! Knowing that it happened for you helps me believe that it can and will also happen for me. I am going to keep at it and not give up. Look at all you have been through and it happened!!! Congrats again.
Thanks I will also pray for your sister. I pray that the Lord with blessher very abundantly!!!
CongRats prayerful wife! I'm so excited for you :) and Good Luck AngelF it will come in time. My sister has been trieing for 6years and she's still working towards it. Just keep faith :)
I will and thank you so much. I know either way He is in control. It will happen when He is ready & I know I can't rush the Lord. I'm just so ready and so is my husband.
Well Keep me informed! By you being a woman of faith I'm sure you already know he may not come when we want him to, but he's always right on time! Lots of glittery baby dust to you. I will keep you in my prayers as well.
Thanks I'm really hoping so. I am a youth pastor and I see a lot of teens who don't want children getting pregnant & it hurts so bad. All I can think about is being a mommy. We want one so bad. I'm very happy for you, God has blessed you with a wonderful gift. I have faith and I'm continueing to pray. I will test in the next day or two. Thanks. God bless
Thank you ladies so much. I guess with all of my health issues I'm super surprised it happened on the 1st try.
My cycle is (was) due on the 7th -8th so now may be a good time for you to test. I used a "1st response 5 days sooner"....it shocked the hell out of me that's why I had to use them both. But this is your month. Ask and ye shall receive!
