For our pregnant charters...

What felt different with your bfp cycle? Did you kind of think you were pregnant or were you totally shocked?

Oooh! Good thread!! I'll be curious to see the answers on this one!!!

Nope, didnt feel pregnant. Had the same CM I had the previous cycle post-O....pretty creamy. DH noticed I had increased my eating, but I think some of that was because a few weeks prior I started jogging again.

I just did a lot of praying too....I believe that God will provide a bfp when HE knows it is right. I believe God blessed us at this moment because of all the negative we had in our lives (DH lost his job the day prior, slight financial whoas, and other things I wont go into). I firmly believe He wanted us to see and have something beautiful in our lives to get us through these tough times we have faced. That's why I believe God has a plan for all of us, whether we get our BFP this cycle or 10 cycles from now. Ok, I didnt mean to preach...sorry!

Yes, I was shocked! I totally didnt feel pregnant. If it werent for my bbs getting more and more sore (it started just in my nips) and my ugly m/s....I wouldn't even think I was pregnant.

I had never charted before, but my chart just seemed so pretty and textbook pg, so while I was surprised it happend my first cycle, I wasn't surprised from how my chart was. And as soon as I got the implantation spotting, I knew.

I still lurk here some days So I hope you don't mind my answering! My BFP chart.. the temps kept going up and up after Oing. In the past.. they would be really rocky afterwards and then would start going down. This time it just kept getting higher.

I didn't notice anything different in myself.. but my DH pointed out that I had the preggo sense of smell a few days before my BFP. I didn't believe him, but I guess he was right.

I had a feeling I would have a June baby because DH and half his freaking family are June babies so it was kind of murphys law! We bedded more this cycle and I used mucinex twice a day in hopes that my cm would be a better environment for the swimmers! Then my chart was way different than other cycles with little baby steps instead of big ups and downs! I still didn't have many symptoms except cramps so I was surprised when I saw the test! Infact I still don't have any symptoms really!

It was only my second full cycle charting temps and really my first religiously charting CM, but my temps were much more smooth the month of my BFP, with a slow rise after O. Very rocky the previous month.

I had no physical symptoms so I didn't have a clue. And I wasn't sure I'd be able to get pregnant easily with my age and ovary issues. So I was pretty surprised.

Oh, and Robin...you wait. About Week 6 or 7 you will mostly like start all your pregnancy symptoms so enjoy the calm now!!! lol!! Thankfully, I'm at 12 weeks and it's all starting to subside for me.

We love for you to answer! I wish all our preggie charters would stick around. Stop by the grad forum too and tell us how you are doing!

I know I am putting my foot in my mouth! Lol! I just want to know something is going on in there!

Mine cycle was completely different, my temps shot up, and although they were a little rocky, they stayed up.
Also my symptoms didnt start when they usually did. Like my sore boobs didnt start until much later then they usually do and then it was a different sore.

It was all just different. Completely.

I noticed my boobs were sooooooo sensitive right away. I mean like I was punched in them. And I was turned off by all kinds of foods. I just felt crappy and decided to test since my chart looked great. I was surprised to get a bfp. I was totally shocked.

I would say my post-O temps were a little less rocky than in previous months. The only symptoms I felt (and didn't really know it was a pregnancy thing at that time) was that I was INSANELY thirsty. I was going through liters and liters of water a day.

I just got my bfp and what was so funny is that I went to the RE on 10/7 to get my new rx for Femara. I told them to go ahead and do a beta since you can't take Femara at all with a pregnancy. My beta came back that same day as 4.3. Nurse said anything under a 5 is not pregnant. I just went to get my 2nd beta and plopped out this

Anyway, to answer your question I have had no symptoms, nada! That is what happened with my daughter also. I usually get every symptom in the book when I have a bfn cycle.
