Grab a test! (For anyone wondering if they're pregnant)

coastalviper10 said:HEY LADIES, THE TEST CAME BACK POSITIVE.....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
So, my boss basically sent me packing and told me to head home early today because I was feeling absolutely trashed. Honestly, I totally lost my cool for a second, thinking maybe my blood pressure was just spiking or something, but then I realized I had to know. I bolted straight to the CVS down the street to grab one of those instant tests you can do right there, and—lo and behold—it’s a big fat plus. Oh my god, girls, I am just over the moon right now...

coastalviper10 said:hey there... look, it doesn't have to be a "must," but honestly, my experience was basically just living in the bathroom... like, every single time I turned around, I was running to the toilet... plus my breasts were super tender around the nipples... and now I'm looking at a positive test today... those were pretty much my only tells right at the start... maybe a little bloating too... anyway, good luck...

Carol Moore27 said:I'm asking because for the last few months, ever since I started trying to conceive, I've had all the symptoms except for that constant urge to pee. I guess maybe that's a key sign? I still have about 11 days until my next period starts.

HUGE CONGRATS ON THE AMAZING NEWS! WISHING YOU ALL THE BEST!!!!!

coastalviper10 said:THANK YOU THANK YOU... I actually went in for blood work this morning... my OB sent me straight to prenatal care back on Tuesday, and they already have me on progesterone, taking two capsules every night at the hospital... and I'll be doing this for three months... man, what a ride...
Honestly, I just took a tip from a coworker... who actually got the advice from her own friend, and they both ended up pregnant that exact same month... the trick is that right after you're done having sex, just shove a pillow under your hips and keep your legs up in the air for maybe 20 or 30 minutes... I gave it a shot and, boom, first try at planning it out... maybe it's total nonsense and maybe it isn't, who knows... those 20 minutes with my legs in the air didn't really matter to me one way or the other, as long as it worked for them, heh... and here we are, a positive test and now the waiting game begins... just hoping everything stays on track... sending good vibes to everyone...

Carol Moore27 said:haha, oh man... this is gold!!!

I actually tried that pillow trick myself, but no luck there. I track my temperature religiously so I know exactly when I'm ovulating, but nothing has worked yet. This marks our fifth attempt at this. My doctor told me during my last checkup at the Mayo Clinic that everything looks fine and to just have some patience. Well, clearly I’m not great at the whole waiting game part. But hey, I'm not letting it get to me too much... at least not yet. 🙂

If it doesn't pan out, I might just end up buying a new one, perhaps a Tempur-Pedic memory foam model. 😁

Ryan Morris15 said:Should I just grab a pillow and give my husband some space then?

Ryan Morris15 said:It’s day 29 of this whole circus, and while I’m feeling some mild cramping, it isn't quite as intense as it usually is before my period actually starts. I had some light aches last night and honestly thought I’d be bleeding by morning, but nothing has happened yet; though, given how unpredictable my cycle can be, we could be looking at day 29, 30, 31, or even stretching out to day 34 before anything shifts.
I’ve also noticed an unusually heavy, thick white discharge over the last couple of days.🤷

I had two periods while I was pregnant...
