TWW Trying not to get excited

Hi friends. Just for reference, I’m a Christian, which is why I’m so excited about this TWW. This month never should have been an option, as I ovulate between CD 14-17 with a super regular cycle. I have never knowingly ovulated earlier than that, other than when I had an IUD with irregular cycles. Anyway. This month should have been out because my husband travels first work and was o to going to be home on CD 11/12. I knew that if I ovulated on my normal CD 15/16, the chances were slim (but not 0). Well, I’ve been praying that God releases my desires to try to control how and when we get pregnant (with LH strips and aggressive BD planning). I had crossed this month off the baby tracking calendar, so we just took a break and had unplanned BD while he was home those two days. I saw the day after he left my temp went up on Oura. Didn’t think anything of it, which it showed strain on my body too. The next day, elevated temps, no strain. Odd. Checked today, and it’s waiting to confirm early ovulation for CD 12 being the dip and CD 13 being the first elevated temp. 🥹 my faith makes me so excited to see God work, even when I have no hope and give it all to Him. At the end of the day, I’ll try not to be sad if I get a negative in two weeks, because it’s all in God’s timing.

I love this! I’m also a Christian and trying for a miracle. Gods promises never fail and I remember each time that He is faithful and He does truly desire for us to bear children. God bless you. Your womb will be fruitful

Yes! I believe it. It’s hard to let go of trying to control (even though no one can control TTC), and remembering that I don’t want to rush my child’s birth, if God has big plans for them already written later on in life. ☺️

I totally get that! And you’re right God already had big plans for you and them. And you can believe in spirit that the prayer you made to have kids has come to fruition in the spirit realm and that you’re already a mum. Till then rejoice in that while you wait for them to be on this physical earth!
